Moving Lathe

MakeHaven Main Space

The main makerspace and connected shops. This is located at 770 Chapel Street. Registered participants should ring the MakeHaven labeled doorbell. They will be directed down a long hallway, and down a set of stairs to our basement workshop.

Harvey has generously offered to donate his small lathe to make haven, all we need to do is move it.

I will use my pickup truck to pick up the lathe, we just will need some voulenteers to help get it into the basement. The basement hatch door has a small amount of clearance, but we figure that we will have just enough room to make it fit through if the legs are taken off. The plan is to use some 2x4 wood beams to as a ramp on the stairs, and use a chain winch that Harvey has to slowly lower the lathe down the ramps. 

Laser cuter Doctor Time
