Part 3 of my Tripet MHP 500 restoration series. In Part 2 I got the electrics sorted and the spindle rebuilt. This time it was table off, cross-slide out, and a proper look at what’s underneath. Overview page: /projects/tripet-mhp-500/.
Part 2 of my Tripet MHP 500 restoration series. In Part 1 I picked up the machine and got as far as tripping the RCD on first power-on. The overview for the series is at /projects/tripet-mhp-500/.
This is the first of a series of probably four posts about the restoration of a Tripet MHP 500 surface grinder. The series came together a bit on the fly so the writeup is lagging behind the actual work. Everything shown here is already done and the machine is up and running.
