    O-Ring Material for Diesel Fuel

    I fix gas stations for a living. We can't use buna orings on gas or diesel anymore. New from the factory they come with fluorosilicone o-rings. Those are brutal$$, so we use Viton whenever we can and have good results. Both gas and diesel are not what the used to be, mostly diesel, and...

    Lets talk ceiling fans for the shop

    If you go with the Canarm fans and you get the variable speed reversing switch, you need additional wires. I forget but you'll need 4 or 5 wires . I wound up getting a variable speed switch with no reverse because I only ran 14-2 wires.

    Lets talk ceiling fans for the shop

    I would say be careful what you buy if your worried about how noisy they are. I have a portable Harbor Freight fan and it's pretty noisy.

    Lets talk ceiling fans for the shop

    I've got 4 canarm fans in my 30x40 with ceiling height 13 to 15.5 ft. If you threw a few sheets of paper on the floor and turned the fans on high, they would blow all over. The only thing I don't like is the fans blow the heat down till it mixes with the cool air.

    Inverter vs conventional generator?

    I've got a Kipor 5k or 6k, can't remember inverter and I can run everything in my house except oven and central air for 24 hours on 5 gallons of gas. I go outside to put gas in it and hear my neighbors generators just as loud as mine, but they are 500 to 1000 ft away.

    Champion compressor

    That is a very good pump. They last forever if you have a 3hp motor hooked to it. 5hp spins a lot faster and thus more heat and wear. Pretty quiet when running too.

    I've been watching it. First it cracks next to one side of the truss , then it shrinks two to three inches in width , then it begins to head south little by little.
