I have owned the machine for several years, it came with a welder, drill press and 75# of clutch weights, when I set it up it will pay for it self in no time. I bought a number of pieces of equipment from a friend that that was closing his shop the building was sold and he didn't own it. This is...

Appreciate all of you responding to my post, maybe I should have told you why I would even consider such a machine. I own a number of 90+ year old Model A fords and because of my back ground I tweak the original 40 HP 4 bangers for durability and performance. These engines stock have Babbitt...

Shoot me a number that I can text to and I will seed you photos. I think you can PM me at least you can on the HAMB, se my responce to those who taken their time to respond to my post' Thank You

I picked up a flywheel and clutch balancer some time ago but it did not come with a manual. The machine is the horizontal operation type, uses a flat table that vibrates, this is not the type that spins the crank or flywheel. I am trying to gain more information on the machine. I can not find...

Over 30 years ago I converted our twin garage door opening to a single wide opening. I had to remove the center support, so I leveled out the span with my temporary supports. I had some 10' long 10 gauge hot rolled flat stock the same width as the height of the header. I cut and welded to the...

Most of the offshore plasma cutters use a simple two wire activating circuit in the head and hose assembly. I am trying to adapt one of these to my Pak 25, but the original Pak 25 unit has a 3 rd. wire, a 14 ga. that the off shore units do not have. Does anyone know the function of this wire or...

I have a Sioux # 645 valve face grinder that I need to replace the spindle shaft #23114. I am hoping that some may have one I can purchase or provide me a lead. Thank You

I did get a real bakers rack. Sunbeam Bread Rack, 42" square x 6' tall with 12 plastic trays. I cut 1/8" and 1/4" inserts to lay on top of the ventilated trays to spread the load. This rack was galvanized and collapsible, I welded up the hinging points and made a fine corner unit out of a $10.00...

When I lived in California I got away with the old toilet paper roll oil filters. They were cheap and I was cheaper, I would recycle the wet rolls with others that had dried. I have escaped to Tenn. now and I am still setting up my new shop so I don't know if they will work as well here. I will...

I feel your pain and am sorry for the problems, I thought I would share a totally different problem but one like you I believe everyone on here should be made aware. We have a problem with a refrigerator that we bought from Sears inline in the last few weeks. I thought that we could trust the...

I beg to differ with previous posters, I believe you got a great deal, yes it doesn't have a table lift but then one of mine doesn't have one either and I have used it for over 50 years. That is a very solid machine and it will give years of service.

I need someone in the Nashville area to help straighten me out on my rotary motor single to three phase converter. Will help sent your child or grandchild to college if you will participate in this quest. Contact Steve via PM or email at [email protected].

You are correct, but the machine grinds not in a true radius but in a cam profile. While the machine was "banned by the EPA, Ammco did design and market a a dust collection system the #8925 that they claim exceeds the the Federal Clean Air Standards set by the Occupational Safty and Health act...

Found a owners manual on the internet will be here tomorrow. I made a few parts to make the machine functional yesterday and arc'd several shoes today. Used the internal fan plus my 24" pedestal fan to blow what dust I generated out back rear of my shop. Thank you for your input, appreciate it!

I believe the action taken was in the early 70's back when brakes and clutch friction surfaces were made with asbestos. Asbestos was banned in those products at the same time, the government monkeys never got around to lifting the ban on the machines. The dust they can produce from today's brake...
