Well I wouldn't want to have to use a chart to do calculations from mV. I don't have a high end fluke, just a 114, its pretty basic. I do miss the 87 that I had at my previous jobs. Ironically though I was helping a neighbor with a grain leg motor problem a year and half ago and really...

Thank you. The rectal thermometer doesn't look that much different. Yesterday when checking the A coil that little drain buster would have been nice. The second manifold set looks awesome and I wish modern ones had gauge faces that easy to read

It would be, But I am not interested in Jerry rigging it, it makes me feel dirty and cheap. And not in a frugal way I am interested what the pros used in years past.

I would be interested in some pics or a list if you ever have time. Lots of history of other tools here, never seen HVAC stuff

My 25 year old central AC unit stopped the other day and it needs a new fan motor. In the process of checking everything out I pulled my digital IR temp gun to help figure out superheat and it didn't work. New 9V battery, would start and pull the trigger it would die and restart as if the...

They are multiple coat finishes that need very long dry time between coats. Every finish needs some sanding especially in the early coats to knock the fibers off that are raised during the first coats. After that linseed oil usually doesn't need sanding except any runs which if not well rubbed...

I never thought I would ever utter these words, those Double D’S are just ridiculous looking

Those yellow cat engines in them are perkins 400 series engines. Cat bought them over 2 decades ago and they are made in perkins plants and you can buy them in perkins white, perkins blue, or cat yellow with cat badges.

Scag is at the top of the heap. I own a ferris and an exmark. I have spent quite a few hours on my elderly neighbors turf tiger 2 when he has heart spell (pretty much all last summer) and I maintain it for him. No way would I go from a Scag to a Ferris, Mid series grasshopper or gravely. An...

These are not nema specific motors but purpose built ones to mount everything to and mount the stroking mechanism to

Depends on the age of the machine. Early B4 sanders had voltage specific motors, there were 4 different models, 115v single, 230v single, 230 3 ph, and 460v 3ph Later models there was just two a dual voltage single ph and a dual voltage 3ph. If it’s one of the later ones you can rewire the...

I have seen several rail car jacks made by simplex.

You just need Menards there in Arizona. They are the third largest in the US and carry Bosch

With either a pole barn or a post frame like RaceCougar posted, its probably going to have to be fully sheathed, both walls and roof, to handle those kind of wind loads.

Most hose connections have a taper. I simply put a piece of tape down the side and measure and mark a distance on the tape down from the tip. Doesn't matter the distance as long as you know it, say 1". Then at the tip and the mark measure the two diameters. Make a profile drawing in the CAD...

Do you have a 3 printer? Adapters are easy to custom design and print.

You absolutely can tie them together via the air output of each. In the industrial world its done all the time. I have seen 4 big scroll compressors (200 hp) and 4 piston (7.5 HP) all manifolded together. The big ones ran the plant air for normal operations, the piston ones were just for back...

Yes, but I was replying to post 28 and the only thing mentioned was diameter. I wasn't going to expand/muddy the conversation to True positioning, perpendicularity, straightness, or ovality.

Ground spike thru Xps foam would work but why? Concrete is probably 1/2 the cost per cubic foot than the foam.

You are supposed to marry a woman meteorologist. The only woman that can’t deny she is wrong at least half the time.
