#scientificinstruments — Public Fediverse posts

This little mechanical calculator is one of my favorite objects. It came to me with what turned out to be a fouled 10s pin retaining ring; it was a bear to take apart, ‘machine’ a new part, and reassemble. But it works! And I love it!

I’m the kind of #physics person who likes to build #ScientificInstruments, lately #benchtopNMR #spectrometers for #chemistry. I need lots of #tools to do my thing. This is my #Hardinge HLV-H #lathe, just after I finished a renovation in 2017. It was made in 1968 in Elmira, New York. In that era in the US, there were two competing high-precision “tool room” lathes, this one and the Monarch 10EE.
