"Morris" key (3): machining the base

 

I finished out the base and installed the bases for the trunnion assemblies.  I have had these miniature pillow blocks for about 30 yrs sitting in a jar.  Just could not throw them away.  I got these at an estate sale where a retired engineer's machine shop was being sold off after he passed away.  I missed out on the machinery but bought all the fasteners...took 2 van loads to get it to my clock shop.  I never regretted spending the $30.00.  Along with the fasteners came bearings, bushings, and other machine shop bits and pieces.
