I have saerched and found that the Lincoln's were mostly rebadged Quincy's but haven't found the 9503 listed. It's a twin cylinder with pressure oil feed to the cylinders. I got it with a 3 phase 5HP motor that ran about 800 RM with a large drive pulley. I have a 5HP Baldor that I can replace it...

What brand is a good desiccant dryer? Bought the HF filter/desiccant setup and it works OK but I'd like a larger capacity desiccant container. The HF one turns color after a few hours of use with my plasma cutter. BTW shopping for Desiccant /Silica Gel pellets was an issue. Fastenal in town...

Has someone used an electric tooth brush for cleaning nuts/bolts and small auto parts? I was thinking that with degreaser or simple green, the action would quickly clean parts. Also get into crevices. Please don't laugh !! Movin/on

I've got 3/8 OD 5/16 ID bronze bushings 3/4 inch long to re-bush Stromberg WW carbs. Got them thru Fastenal at a really good price in bulk. I've got 25 carbs. The outside bushings are OK at 3/4 inch but the center between the throttle plates needs to be just under 3/8. So I need to cut them in...

I'm not sure if they are forged or cast. I'm hoping that because of the smooth finish they are forged. If forged steel then I'll weld them. Plan on cutting then boring each with a 3/4 drill and inserting a 3/4 rod to allow turning the threads to match. I'll then weld and grind/file the...

Electric Motor sizing -- high amperage Chop saw Quite a few years ago I bought a LARGE metal chop saw and on the Dayton motor it says 10HP, 40 amp, single phase (?). :shocking: It's on a (probably 1970's) Jet 18" COM, cut off machine. ie. 18" cutoff wheels. Got everything for $100 on a rolling...

I bought these from closed down ship repair business and think they were used to bend rods/wires for Crab Pots. I'm sure they were just utilized for that chore. What was the intended use? They are about 20 inches long and are most likely forged but could be cast iron.

I'm about out of the Roloc type discs I bought at a car swap meet 2 years ago. I've gone through about 200 of them and need to resupply my consumables. I contacted the swap meet vendor but wonder if there is another wholesale supply shop. Getting ready to chop a top on a car and hate to...

A local scrap yard had this piece and didn't want to scrap it so he asked if I wanted it. For free it was hard to pass up. He loaded it onto my car hauler trailer and 2 miles later it was at my shop. It came with a full box of cutters and chasers and the Landis Handtool book that describes the...

Been on HAMB for a while and keep tabs on the Homebuilt Tools threads. Currently do quite a bit of metal work and have just finished a quite large English wheel to fill out my sheet metal tool needs. I've been in SW Oregon for 11 years after retiring from corporate life in SE Michigan. I was...
