I've actually designed and built a few louver die sets to be used in many different machines. The die isn't complicated (no moving parts) if starting with a blank piece of material the punch has to have a sharp edge to initially shear the material, then as the punch enters the die it will ride...

No prob. they are a pretty good company to get stuff like that from and their brackets to make anything suspension related for off road vehicles etc. custom work can be sent to them as well.

Yes. www.ballisticfabrication.com

I'll be there!

That's a heck of a score. couple months ago I ordered 6x8 .250 wall tubing for a job... it was $33.00 a foot. :/

Mc Master Carr has many different options for you to choose from. Search their site for drawer slides or track guides...hopefully you will find something that will work for you there.

A2 is most stable at 56-58 HRc A block of that size with a torn up edge on it like that is most likely at 55-57 range. A2 when it gets anywhere at or above 60 HRc it will break off. And I wouldn't use any heat sink when welding this. the key is to bring it to an exact temp and cool it slowly...

ballistic fabrication. That's where I get all of mine. I'm making ladder bars for my brothers truck tomorrow with joints from ballistic.

Not sure of your application, so if you have 20 or so of these blocks that wear out easily in that little area and you have to build up to repair that surface it sounds like you would be better off getting a hold of the tool designer and re-designing it so there is a recessed insert that's...

make a gusset out of the 3/8 material the distance from the drop to the side of the bar about 3" wide. Weld that in and you will be good to go.

In addition to wiping them down with a oil based spray. I use used hand warmers. Hand warmers are activated by moisture and oxygen, essentially accelerated rust and that's how they get hot, well when they are done and cold they will continue to absorb moisture really well. Use them in the gun...

I'm new here, figured this would be my first post. :) If I'm looking at this correctly the fitting part of the jack pump is more than likely 12L14 leaded screw machine steel. However the piston that's just below it should be made out of dissimilar material, 4140 pre hard (28-36 HRc) would be a...
