Did a quick session on the wirewheel to get the most of the debris off. Made a lot of difference already. Now the tank can do the rest. Handles haven been ordered.

This threat deserves some new input. Let me kick it off with a very good deal on a set of Gedore dolleys and a hammer I got yesterday.

A buddy of mine had an awful fire run trough his garage which destroyed nearly everything. Out of the rubble I dug some hammers which I will restore. Don't know if they'll be safe to use again, but I'll give it a go anyway. Might become some nice wall art.

Awesome! Both the table and the Sun machines are works of art.

changed it, sorry Its a cross peen hammer

Haha, epic! Thanks for the quick reply

What is this called in English? (In Dutch its called a 'patenthuls')

Blasphemy! You can find instructions here and here

Thank you sir! You are indeed the winner.

I need a socket driver with: - hex 10 mm - ball end - extra long hex part, at least 160 mm. or longer - drive doesn't matter (1/2 or 3/8) Can't seem to find a brand that sells one. So if anyone has a tip. example:

awesome, best thread on the GJ!

Nice find! York vises clean up very well. They are a quality brand from the Czech Republic. The company still exists today and you can buy spare parts from them here. I did a couple myself, they are pretty easy to take apart. Good luck and keep us posted!

I once tried to press out a ball joint from a Volkswagen trailing arm. Used a 10 ton press. I got scared when the press hit 9 tons and nothing happend. I stopped and got a tip from someone who didn't had a press. All you need is a grinder and a welder. First cut the cap that holds the ball stud...

Thanks guys. Correct remark on the engine parts. A lot of them will be replaced or receive extensive work so that's not a problem. The good ones I will store somewhere else.

And she's done! I also cleaned the black knobs that hold the tool rests Fitted a wire wheel on one side. I'm in doubt whether to leave the tool rest of for more contact surface with the wheel Now the hunt is on for some vintage guard shield with lights in them. If anyone knows of any for...

I can vouch for the Hazet one!

Between work an other projects the grinder suffered a lack of attention. Today I set that straight. The main body is back together and she is in working order once again. I'm now finishing up the paint work on the side shields and such. Here is a nice comparison with the old one.

I've got two sets of those screwdrivers and one of the torx sets. I use them a lot and they hold up great. Tips are good and the handles are comfortable.

3m Scotchpad sandpaper P2000 (wet) polish paste (Silvo) wax Even the rivets got that treatment. Kinda crazy maybe, but heck I can't stop myself anymore...
