This is truly what sets Ickler apart from just any shop. The customer brought in these tractor rims. He wants to fit these rims on a different brand of tractor with a huge wheel hub. He needed a larger diameter circle cut out of the middle. Being that our horizontal boring mill does not have a powered rotary table, AND not wanting to sit on the ground and crank for hours, 2 of the guys invented a way to use an old mill knee power feed, several reduction pulleys, and a few belts to run the handle that rotates the table. When you have the power of invention great things can be accomplished.
