Nobody?

I have had this gasoline compressor sitting around, it starts great, runs great, and the air idler is working fine. The pilot/unloader is a little fiddly but I can get it to activate the idler in the "UP" position. My question is, when it hits cutoff pressure and idles, what stops the machine...

Coplanar would make a lot of sense. Thanks

Picked up this metal bandsaw on the cheap, I've always wanted one but they're always too big and expensive or too flimsy. I was going to go the Portaband route but this popped up for a great deal and the guy was cool so I got it. I'd love to get a manual for it, I think it's a 3z801 model...

Theres a chart in the manual but it doesnt say for 26tpi or any cycke threads.

Aaaaand there's a calculator online. My lathe has a 16tpi lead screw, so this should be the recipe? <a href="http://s19.photobucket.com/user/picturedlife/media/Mobile%20Uploads/Screenshot_2016-06-24-07-19-12_zpsj6hyl9fk.png.html" target="_blank"><img...

Thanks! I dont know how to calculate gearing for tpi, but I guess it can't be too impossible.

I know this isn't what the thread is about but I am so into Lil' Doc's hammer storage system that I couldn't resist... For those with space constraints: <a href="http://s19.photobucket.com/user/picturedlife/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160624_065814_zpsyydtvl6o.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img...

Change Gears bump

Maybe this is too much of a longshot, and maybe this is one of those questions that someone pops in with periodically, I did a search and couldn't find anything. My question is, is there anyone on here (or elsewhere) who can make gears to run on my Craftsman 101.21200 lathe that will cut 26...

It does seem more like a press than a vise, no screw locks it tight or anything.

It has got me curious

thanks Jeremy!

Thanks Chevy EFI for posting the links. Dang photobucket would have made it a breeze but its not working for some reason

Grabbed this little press vise thing, looks like someone fabbed it in their own shop with a high degree of competence. Cant find any makers mark but it is smooth as silk in its operation. The serrations on the moving jaw make it seem purpose built for something really specific, though I cant...

I think it's cool

I disassembled my SnapOn YA642 jack and replaced the UCup and the square Oring in the bore, they looked fine but it was apart. Reassembled, no improvement. This is the condition of my release valve, I am guessing it needs replacement? I got this jack used, I think the PO must have had strong...

I'm messing with a 455 Buick, probably going to end up getting SS valves (and size up the intakes) anyways but i got the runout on the valves to 2 tenths so I was happy about that. I could have just lapped them in but I have this seat machine and I wanted to play with the seats. I have two sets...

Thanks for that about the fiber washer, that seems like something worth trying.

This is the machine I have. Without a runout gauge I can't tell how concentric I am, but marking the valves and slapping them in, it looks pretty good. There's some attachments for flatheads and whatnot, I got this from the estate of an old farmer in Wisconsin, so it was probably just for...
