Anyone who maintains machine tools can benefit by developing metal scraping skills. Scraping is not without limitations but is logical, accessible and not particularly difficult. There is no magic, expensive professional instruction is not required and it is not necessary to spend huge sums of money on equipment.
The mission of this website is to share, collect and curate information machine rebuilding.
As part of this mission shared projects will be developed to assist interested parties in acquiring functional equipment at a reasonable cost.
Required Equipment
A reference surface
Spotting compound
