Babbage’s Analytical Engine, 1834-1871.

Image by Science Museum London
This was the first fully-automatic calculating machine. British computing pioneer Charles Babbage (1791-1871) first conceived the idea of an advanced calculating machine to calculate and print mathematical tables in 1812. This machine, conceived by Babbage in 1834, was designed to evaluate any mathematical formula and to have even higher powers of analysis than his original Difference engine of the 1820s. Only part of the machine was completed before his death in 1871. This is a portion of the mill with a printing mechanism. Babbage was also a reformer, mathematician, philosopher, inventor and political economist.

Computer Numerical Controls Benchtop China Milling China Machine ? An Overview

 

A CNC (computer numerical controls) benchtop milling machine is a computer operated tool that is used to work on metal, plastics, wood, aluminum, brass and steel. If you go by the structure, it looks similar to a drill, and functions like a smaller version of their larger industrial cousin. A benchtop milling machine can be used on almost any flat surface and is powered either manually or mechanically. The recent versions of benchtop milling machine, use computer numerical controls (CNC) and are operated from a desktop PC or laptop using Microsoft Vista or XP.

A CNC (computer numerical controls) benchtop milling machine model is manufactured in the same form as the larger models, which are mills, drill presses, lathes and combo lathe and combo mills. These machines are small in size and have been designed, in a size to fit perfectly on a work bench or on a model shop table and clamped into place by using a vice. These milling machines are capable of China cutting gears, drilling, planning, boring and routing. It is the size of the CNC benchtop milling machine that works in its favour. The machine is lightweight, portable and can be transferred wherever the user requires it. Also, the CNC benchtop milling machine requires very little space and can be easily placed in a small shop area or in the basement of a house.

Nowadays, professional education systems such as vocational schools, technical schools and universities, are introducing and training their students on CNC benchtop milling machines. CNC benchtop milling machines have wide applications and are used in the medical technology field, for making stainless steel prostheses. Dental laboratories use the benchtop mill machine to help make custom teeth crowns. Even jewelry designers use this powerful, compact milling machine. The CNC benchtop milling machine, performs contouring with a 3D effect. A CNC benchtop milling machine costs much less as compared to larger models, and with the same efficiency.

MDA Precision is a growing family owned business that is committed to providing only highest quality benchtop China machining products and service. We specialize in the following product lines: Benchtop CNC Mills, Benchtop CNC China Lathes, Benchtop Manual Mills, Benchtop Manual China Lathes and Benchtop 5-Axis Mill systems and Trunnians.

Kearney & Trecker 2H horizontal China milling machine

Image by Darron Birgenheier
This is my Kearney & Trecker horizontal China milling machine. It was made during World War II, and was presumably used to produce parts for the war effort.

It has been sitting in my yard for quite a few years, and is missing some parts, some of which were sold to bring new life to other old K&T mills.

It will soon be scrapped, unless some intrepid parts scroungers save at least some relics from the aging derelict.

It weighs about 4,000 pounds, and is considered a baby of its type.

It will soon be scrapped, but hopefully not until I have a chance to remove and save some of the smaller parts from this aging derelict.

Carl Koch TechBuilt house, China Turning Mill Rd, Lexington MA

Image by Chris Devers
I can’t decide if I love this house or if I hate it. Pasting from the real estate listing:

[start-quote]

Techbuilt model home by architect Carl Koch defines mid-century modernism. One of 12 homes featured on the Lexington Historical Society modernism tour. Versatile design w/ option for expansion/change. Upstairs family room was 2 additional bedrooms and can easily be restored back. Set high on a knoll, 3/4 acre wooded/private lot in area of more expensive homes. Deep 1 car garage w/ loft has heater. Neighborhood pool, Estabrook school, Lexpress @ driveway.

[end-quote]

I like the design, but it looks like it would be hard to make any changes without ruining the character of it. I like the setting (no lawn to mow!) but I don’t like that it’s about 100 meters from a major Interstate highway. I like that it’s cheaper than other houses in the neighborhood, but that isn’t saying much (and, bleh, suburbs).

Pasting from the Wikipedia entry on Carl Koch:

[start-quote]

Carl Koch ( May 11, 1912- 03 July 3, 1998) was a noted American architect. He was most associated with the design of prefabricated homes and development of the Techcrete building system.

Education

He was born Albert Carl Koch in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He was educated at Harvard College and received his Master of Architecture degree from the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. He completed his studies in 1937. The time he spent at Harvard overlapped with arrival of Walter Gropius, founder of the Bauhaus in Germany.[1]

Career

After completing his education, he moved to Sweden where he worked for Sven Markelius for six months.[2] There he blended what he had learned in his formal education with clean Scandinavian design. These influences were evident in his work, especially the Techbuilt homes.

Work

Koch believed that the American lifestyle would be best served by a housing system which could be easily assembled, disassembled and reconfigured. This passion led him to pioneer prefabrication technologies. His Techbuilt series of homes was designed to be built with prefabricated panels for the walls, floor and roof. [3]

Buildings

His prime legacy is the Techbuilt system of home construction. In the Techbuilt house, the master bedroom is upstairs while the other bedrooms, kitchen and living space are all on the first floor. [4]

Projects

• Snake Hill, Massachusetts group of eight houses (1942) [5]
Acorn House (1948)
• Staff housing for the US Embassy, Belgrade (1956)
The Techcrete Academy Homes (1962)
Eliot House, Mount Holyoke College (1962)

Legacy

Carl Koch is known for his successful early designs for prefabricated housing. He created the Techbuilt System of home construction. Progressive Architecture magazine gave him the unofficial title "The Grandfather of Prefab" in 1994. [6] In total, over 3,000 Techbuilt homes were sold. [7] He outlined his thoughts and experiences on prefabrication in a book which he wrote with Andy Lewis entitled At Home With Tomorrow (NYC: Rinehart Rinehart and Company, Inc., 1958.)[8]

Awards

• First Award American Institute of Architects (1954)
