Chain saw chaps would work. Gloves (ask my finger!) and a face shield too.

Probably the reason it was abandoned is because long after the well was drilled and used, the town installed city water and the house was connected to that. In all likelihood, there is nothing wrong with the well or the water. Get it tested and have a plumber that knows about deep wells come in...

Anybody know of any replacement soft faces for the Vlchek HM16? Looks to be similar to the Vaughn design, but not sure if the socket would fit. Lug is around 5/8 across flats at the fat end. 1-3/8 dia face. Been digging around the interwebs and have only found it in the 1949 catalog. Would like...

I have one of mine mounted offset on a vertical receiver tube and have used it extensively (beat the snot out of stuff clamped in it, LOL) works great. I prefer it vertical, all the forces go down onto the bench top instead of onto a horizontal receiver tube.

Jersey Shore Steel is located near me in Lycoming County, PA not New Jersey. Primary source of their products including bed frames are railroad rails. https://jssteel.com/our-rail-steel-products/railroad-rails-high-strength-angle-iron/

Seconding the above opinions that it's not a problem. Also, if left outside the ash gets real punky real quick. Not good firewood after a year or so.

Don't know anything about them but here are these. 9 x 28 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0143IY2E4/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Hydraulic cylinder of course! :) Maybe a heavy turnbuckle?

I hung an HF off my Craftsman, it fit ok.

You might want to read this thread on his opinion of epoxy floors. Mine is just sealed concrete, works for me. https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/bald-is-beautiful-7750-sq-feet-feeling-gruntled.91146/

Sounds like it might be 1/8-27 npt maybe.

I always put the brown sugar in as I cure it, have to try it this way, is this home cured or bought?

Can't resist this!

On a smaller scale I had a 20 hp Kohler that blew a crank seal behind the flywheel, made a bit of a mess. I put a big tray under the engine and ran a hose from that into my parts cleaner and extended the hose from the pump on the cleaner to the brush on the end of the hose. Worked great, maybe...

For what it's worth, from the Williamsport Sun-Gazette. https://www.sungazette.com/news/top-news/2023/02/shop-vac-not-closing-but-scaling-back-operations/

With a loader on the front, weight goes in the back tires, none in the front tires. Even with the loaded rear tires, be very cautious when handling heavy full buckets on anything but flat ground, can get real interesting real quick. Almost every farm tractor I've been around has had loaded rear...

So put a pull box in at a convenient spot with the fmc. Makes it easier either way, you have to buy 2 coils anyway.

I think you are limited to 360 deg of sweeps (4 90)? Maybe you can use that to your advantage, put a pull box in at the joist. Pulling 80 feet of 4 #6 sounds like fun even in 4 sweeps

This is why I said I wouldn't but a flat ways lathe. Not heavy enough, we are not talking about heavy industrial equipment. A lot of people that don't know much about lathes may see this picture and think it's common practice. If I had ever done this in my dad's or uncle's shops or most machine...
