Climax BB5500, Hey its Christmas every day round here.
Nice box!!!!! hopefully it is filled?
Oh ya, its even got instruction manuals in 6 different languages, that was prolly extra 500 bucks.
You’ve got a keeper!! Very nice
Just exactly how full the box is depends on how many of the "extras" you bought with it....... First thing we did was to put some heavy-duty caster wheels on the box. It gets to be a pain to keep moving it around with a pallet truck.
If my wife scored something like that for me, it would sound something like this. Happy birthday, merry Christmas (whatever) now get out there and make us some money, b!tch!!!
A couple of photos of our B5500 hard at work.
Yes sir that's nice I had these made for my York I think I can move around stuff and get it all in. we can crane these in the back of truck.
Is your sister inlaw single ?
I’m curious....what did you to deserve that or what did she do the necessitate that? Lol Looks awesome. I’m jealous!
Wants you to keep on working . Kind of like when I bought my wife a sweeper and sewing machine for Christmas. I bet you were happier then my Wife
I'm going to admit, I first read this post on my phone where I don't get to see the pictures. I wondered what climax bb5500 was, and why you were telling everyone that your wife bought it for you, and a boring bar set up wasn't the first thing that came to my mind, when I read the post. Sorry. That said, any wife that buys you quality tools is a good find.
LOL!!!!! Crane op.
Had to take out 10 years of one time use plates and fixtures but it all fit, now just have to tidy up a little.
Basic set up with 4' and 6' bar will do smaller stuff with York for a while, studying on the different facing heads. Got to go slow don't want the ole gal think I'm being greedy.
You know that you'll be needing some of those next week now that you pulled em' out of there right???
Slicker than snot on a doorknob.
I know that's why I started another box.
Hydraulic drive or electric.?
Electric for now
You are a lucky guy twr ! In more ways than one. I wish RayF were still around to read this thread. He would have liked it I'm sure.
Doing a grapple and link today with my old "home made" rig...sure wish I had a shiny new blue one of one of those! I would be happy to "road test" the new unit for you
Thanks, I new it was gonna happen one showed up on Ebay 10K less oh well
Eter ,your home made rig looks pretty cool .
Thanks Volvomad, it has worked out pretty good... eventually I would like to have an "on the bar drive" machine for those tight spots and greater torque for larger bores. Regards, Bob
When I saw the name on that I was expecting it to come with whipped cream and handcuffs.
