MY 2009 JCW MINI Cooper rear (Boot?) badge was showing some sun damage to the red inlay paint... Used some dental floss to saw through the adhesive tape to remove the badge Had a bottle of Tamiya Italian Red lacquer I used for some inlay paint work... I just realized all the black inlay...

I picked up this New Iceberg a while back on FBMP... Cleaned it up... Now I store my antifreeze in it...

But will it carry the weight of the three full kegs on your next camping trip...

It's also known as a motor shaft condom... :dunno: My RI motor has the double shaft, but it's of an older vintage that doesn't have the screw holes to attach the "condom"... Before the condom, the early designers came up with a different form of protection (Far right of the motor image)... So...

DIY Evaporust

Not much to it really... I followed this Video for the setup and the making of the solution... I found it easier to use my ultrasonic cleaner for temperature control of the solution and removal of the gas bubble that can interfere with the plating finish... My plating solution goes into a glass...

Mine was loaded with many years of sawdust... I first blew all the loose sawdust particles out of the stator as best I could... There was a lot of dust that came out... I then used a couple of cans of CRC Lectra-Motive.. Worked great and no risk of damage to the wire insulation... Got it clean...

Very nice results, I've wanted to try zinc plating... Care to share your formula and procedure?... I've been doing nickel plating and instead of an aquarium bubbler, I put my solution in a glass jar and then use my ultrasonic tank... I fill the tank with tap water and use the built in heater to...

Mine had a RI motor, and I was able to carefully grind down the drive screw heads and then used a punch to drive the stem towards the inside... Here's a photo where you can see open areas between the stator and the motor shell that let the drive screw drop out... I then tapped the holes and used...

I would buy my punches from American Punch Co. when the shop Whitney Duplicator tooling would wear out... They should have your missing punch and dies... My contact there was Jovan... Excellent service...

It was listed at $325.00... Marshall, Michigan SOLD (But not to me...) Heh

Looks like it still has a deathgrip on a escapee from the last time it was used...

Just noticed this 12" Delta Disc sander on FBMP... I don't recognise the electric motor on this machine... It includes the DS-21 dust chute and rare blower motor... There are still gems to be found of these wonderful built machines...

Nice bandsaw (Atlas)... Uggg, Meant to say Delta...:lol_hitti This little fella needs to be brought out of retirement and be put back to work...

Not a discharge capacitor... Itsa step up transformer that powers the magnetron (eyeball fryer)...

Had to get out my VOM this afternoon... Long story short... My wife had both knees replaced a year ago and is now ready to step up her exercise program... She asked me to look into her elliptical step machine... The LCD screen was acting up and the programed routine wasn't starting... Took the...

Four years after I sold my shop, the new owner called me about a problem with the 12 foot hydraulic shear not working... The shear was made sometime in the 60's and control boards were no longer available... He ran out of ideas after contacting a few people that wanted nothing to do with trying...

I have the Zero-G hoses and they work fine with my pressure washer... City water pressure keeps it fully pressured while running the washer... I'm guessing if a high GPH pressure washer is used, it would need to consume more GPH than what's supplied by the city?

Sounds like the start winding isn't engaging and it's trying to start on the run winding (humming)... The centrifugal switch controls the start to run sequence at startup... I'd check the centrifugal switch for proper operation...

Continuing with my winter project... Picked it up from an estate auction awhile back... Did a Timken bearing replacement on the spindle, and cleaned up the original paint... Bought the HF US General 42" roller cabinet to mount the small lathe... Overview of Atlas Press Co. 612 Lathe Pre-War Era...
