Members DanishMan Posted June 25, 2020 Members Report Posted June 25, 2020 (edited) Dear Friends Four days ago I bought an old table for a skiving machine. The table was in a sorry state, but I am going to paint it. Originally the table was set up for vacuum, but this had been removed at some point. I would like to restore the vacuum - possible via a vacuum cleaner - but I need the bucket. Would anyone here have a scrap bucket from a Fortuna skiving machine. I am interested in buying. Kind regards Danishman PS - The picture shows the bucket on my wife's machine Edited June 25, 2020 by DanishMan Quote
Members jimi Posted June 25, 2020 Members Report Posted June 25, 2020 Hi Soren, Looks like this might be another "long wait part" to find?? One solution would be going to a sheet metal worker with the one from your wifes machine and get them to make another the same? Or make one from thin plywood and paint it Machine green?? If you wanted the rounded corners then you would need a square post on each corner to later plane round. Good luck on your hunt. Quote
Members DanishMan Posted June 25, 2020 Author Members Report Posted June 25, 2020 Hi Jimi In Denmark it would probably be around 200 Euros to have a bucket made. I will just wait and see - The machine does not need vacuum to run. Cheers Soren Quote
RockyAussie Posted June 26, 2020 Report Posted June 26, 2020 How much of the vacuum stuff is missing? Is it only the bucket? Quote
Members DanishMan Posted June 28, 2020 Author Members Report Posted June 28, 2020 Hi RockyAussie Everything is missing. But my plan is to fit a vacuum cleaner. I will post photos later. Kind regards Søren Quote
