12 INCH CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION PHOTOS
The 12-incher as I found it.
Another...
And another...
"Don't blow a disk Stu !"
We came to our senses.
Much easier...
The restoration begins.
Replacement coil repair - nothing is easy.
Water left in cooling lines froze and burst.
Safety, safety, safety.
As good as Maaco.
"If a job's worth doing..."
Yum, chocolate donuts. Doh !
It's all comming together nicely.
It's done !
Scrap steel reclamation.
Measure once, cut twice...
Stuart is multitalented.
Electrical test of the magnet.
Testing the table... Phew !
Magnet is finally mounted on the table.
Mounting of the Diff Pump.
The RF box.
HV oil resevoir for RF coil cooling
Water cooled RF oil heat exchanger.
Stu at the helm.
Some of the RF instrumentation.
