The Standard factory cast-iron coolers don’t really count as an after cooler. A properly sized radiator that’s fan cooled will drop the air temperature down to room temperature. This is the best picture I have of mine but it’s a Hayden 1299 dual pass hydraulic oil cooler. The air exits at room...

The aftercooler outlet is where the condensation and colder air come out “after” it has been “cooled”. If you separate the water there it won’t make it to the tank.

Long day

I have one of those HF bridge saws too. With some TLC it gets the job done just fine.

Use a drill bit the same size as the hole in the bar. The hole will guide the bit allowing you to cut the head off the screw.

I use the TSC hardener in Rustoleum paint, plain and hammered, all of the time. I’ve never even tried their paint.

Painting over rust aside, I disagree with his ratios. I’ve always had great results using 10-15% Acetone and whatever hardener ratios printed on the can using Tractor Supply Majic hardener (1:16 or 8oz/gallon). It’s a waste of money to overharden and you run the risk of ruining your gun!

Disappointed to hear Palmer’s is out of business. The common regulators that were available 5 years ago are all gone now, I wish I had stocked up! Thanks for the advice

Hope you can point me in the right direction. I’m looking for an adjustable inline pressure regulator for paintball tanks. Special effects in the film industry and 0 to 400 psi is what I’m looking for. I have used a Palmer’s Persuit Fatty in the past but it’s not quite right. I have another...

Verify your purge volumes are high enough before you commit to a full ($$) print. I have had failed prints due to support filament contamination!

What beautiful work! Your paint supplier seems to be amazing at tinting consistent batches of paint for all of the parts to match so well!

Style points do count also!

Lots of polished brass parts!

The problem with this approach is my wife would notice how many spools I actually have!

Similar to the people who freaked about your coach suspension servicing methods. I have only worked on one MCI bus with bags and those methods are solid and obvious. I can’t imagine not being observant enough to understand my surroundings.

Can you quit the day to day stuff your father has you doing and just focus on the move?

Just catching up on your thread. I’ve been using a DA with 80 or 100 grit on similar machines for years. The best thing about it is the scratches hold more wax and the roughness reduces friction, similar to the scraping on a machine tool!

I’ve painted tons of stuff using similar ratios, brush and spray. It flows out great and you can sand it the next day!

I’m thrilled with my P1S. The nicer screen of the X1 would be nice but, the Handy app on my phone takes care of that! You can use a resistor to trick the system for the higher bed temperature. Spaghetti detection would be great but I can buy a lot of filament for the difference in price!

I think you’re going to be surprised how well it works. You can vapor polish ABS with acetone fumes if you need perfect but, why bother!
