Band saw Bomar STG 120
This small, cheap but very handy and top-quality band saw can cut almost everything I need, at minimum operating costs. It keeps the cut precise, straight and smooth even under the maximum load. For cutting the full materials, the machine is equipped with a rotation brush for removing chips, and with a still-power-on button for long-lasting cuts.

Lathe Optimum D 320×920
Modern full-value universal lathe with unique utility properties and high preciseness. Wide range of RPM, automatic longitudial and transversal feed, taper and thread cutting. Additionaly, the machine is equipped with end-switches, extending it to an semiautomatic. While the lathe works, I can operate with another machine without taking care when the automatic feed should stop.
Besides the big amount if different tools, I also have different types and sizes of chucks, allowing for clamping almost any workpiece:

Lathe TOS SUF-16
I use this small and simple lathe for finishing operations (for example chamfering the edges) or for making some small parts. Using my both lathes togethers brings surprisingly effective work. Having a second machine can also be useful when the first one is occupied by an important work and you suddenly need to make some tiny or helper part.

In comparison to the original version, the belt-gearbox is replaced by a single V-belt and a frequency converter.

Milling/drilling machine Optimum BF 20 Vario
Again very handy, small machine. Looking at it, you would not expect much of it, but it can perform a really precise professional work and can also cope with quite a big material removal. In contrast to the serial version, this machine is equipped with a three-phase motor and frequency converter, variable speed automatic longitudial feed with end-switches, and with a mechanical depth stop.
Of course I have drawers and shelfs full of different vices, chucks, helper and cutting tools. Those shown below are just a fragment of all the necessary equipment.

Horizontal milling machine TOS FH 32
I use this machine for big material removals, rough work or machining of larger pieces. Despite of the year of manufacture (1947) it is still a very precise machine. All three axes are equipped with a machine-feed and rapid feed.
Currently I'm reconstructing the machine during the operation. The machine will be equipped with a new motor and a frequency converter, continuously adjustable feed speed and a vertical spindle will be added.
