Thanks (re the jack, I'm excited to rebuild it with my son!). With the rack, my plan is to turn and lock the arms in such a manner that I can lay a piece of plate steel on the "hands" and clamp it in. That way, it won't be harmed, and maybe one day it can be used for what it was intended to...

Well, I already ordered the rebuild kit from weaver... it's going to be a restoration project for me and my son. The reck rack, I would just assume get rid of it, but it was my father in laws and my wife is adamant that I keep and use it... but if it were a decent payday I might could convince...

Then there's this old weaver jack... after talking to the company in Michigan, and describing the jack cylinder to him (no company numbers located yet) we have det4rmined it to probably be 30's era 4T... My son and I found it buried in a shed and wrestled it out.. extremely heavy!

Hi everyone. I recently inherited a bunch of tools from my father in law. One of them I can't find out much about! I even contacted the company who was bought out by Snapon, and they can't offer any help or info. I was hoping someone on here may have information on it ,or maybe has used one...

If you can point me to a rebuild thread, that would be very helpful... thanks!

I just inherited a weaver 4T, I had to call the company to help figure out the age. Best we can tell, it was built 30's-40's.... I ordered a rebuild kit for the pump so my son and I can resurrect this beast!

Well, it's whatever you want it to be, just give it a minute!

310.15(B)(2)a is for ambient air temp correction anyways. This one table is just a small look at a LARGE electrical picture. You would need to use this table in conjunction with other tables/information to come to a realistic logical conclusion. Using just this table as an end all/ be all, is...

He is ok... however you are still wrong. The table is for deration, not for conductor count. Also, it is only applicable to a certain number of sizes of wire ( not all are the same deration percentage).

Ok. It may go hand in hand, but one is different than the other. And the table above does not answer the op question, it tells what percentage to derate, therefore is not applicable to the question.

You are talking about deration, not fastening... You need to make sure we are taking into account that 2 of the 3 wires in the cable are current carrying. But as far as the table, I wouldn't use it for deciding how many Romex wires I can fasten together...

You can put as many wires as the staple will effectively hold... (plastic is usually one, and plastic ones are not that good.) metal staples are better and will only hold 2 12/2's as you are asking about. It is best to not staple more than 2 12/2's or 3 14/2's together, most inspectors start to...

Hi everybody! I live in Sylva, NC, I've been lurking in the shadows here trying to learn about rebuilding a Weaver jack that I just inherited.... looking forward to learning more from you guys and hopefully I can contribute as well!
