We are starting the upgrades for our Kitchen & Walker Horizontal Facing Borer! First up we need to make the riser block that will be used to raise the column on the facing borer. In this video we show the step by step of machining up the hollow bars that will be the supports for the bolts in the riser block. We then assemble and weld all of the plates together that make up the riser block. We also need to mill the surface of the top and bottom plates perfectly true to keep the accuracy and surface area for when the column is mounted onto the riser block. To do that we are going to be using our 1950s SIP Hydroptic No 6 Jig Borer. It is the first job that we will be using the jig borer for in the workshop and as we expected it performs beautifully!
