Need somebody to translate a German technical drawing
I have a foundation drawing for a large lathe that I'd like to have translated to English.
I don't really have anyway to pay for this work (unless you're in the business and then I guess we could do it through normal channels) but I could have something machined, waterjet cut, etc in exchange. Obviously I can figure out the dimensions, it's the few items of text I need help with. If you'd like to give it a shot, please PM me your email address and I'll send pictures of the drawing.

The problem is the technical aspect. The online translators seem to miss the important stuff.

Dood, that stuff is made up, even those crazy Germans don't make words like Kabeldurchfuhrungsrohr. Sounds like the Swedish Chef wrote those notes...

Germans tend not to makeup new words or phrases, they just add together the existing words

I told my German GF that Texan for making things happen is (accent applied) "right now!" She really liked that and used to say "jetzt gleich". So it's a good German word to bandy about if you are learing the language.
