In this video, I give a look at the very old Haigh tenoner. Haigh machinery company was established in 1854 in england. We suspect this machine to have been manufactured sometime prior to the first world war, making it over 100 years old.

What a beast! If all else fails you could always melt it down and build a yacht hull, lol

@@illyakuryakin5024 Haha, it certainly has some weight to it.

lovely machine, I love the shape of the cast iron parts, what a beauty. I would guess 1920's on age but difficult to tell. I would keep the switch gear, nothing wrong with it and much better and safer than modern plastic ones.

@markpannell4058 They certainly put a lot of thinking into design back then. I'm not sure on age, apart from very early 1900's.

What a beauty mate. I’ve got a haigh spindle from about 1912 I believe

@DTJoinery 15 дней назад

@amhjoinery2060 I've not seen a spindle of theirs. How do you rate it?

Fascinating how you use, repair and jerry-rig these beasts. Wonder how ‘fun’ it is for you to get these in working condition or keep them in production vs just doing what you have to out of necessity. Necessary evil or more than that?

@DTJoinery 15 дней назад

@ericerf6837 For the most part, being so well made, they really don't need a lot doing to them to keep them going. I get a lot of satisfaction from having, using, and maintaining them. They work just as well and, in most cases, better than any new machinery. They are basic machines and require skill to operate as opposed to todays computerised equivalents. That's what I like. They are also as reliable as the day is long.

How easy do you find it to set up the knives on the tenon heads after sharpening?

@DTJoinery 15 дней назад

@amhjoinery2060 It's not too bad, we just setup a template so all the knives are the same.
