Thread: relays
12/09/2023 13:53:31

Hi, I've measured the voltage of the thinner wires which were 36 volts, they lead to a circuit board which measures the charge left in the battery's, I'm looking for a suitable replacement if anyone could point me in the right direction for one , would be appreciated

Many thanks

I've put some more pictures in my album

11/09/2023 12:42:26

The batteries are 3 x 12 volt 14amp l think in series

11/09/2023 10:08:56

I Have added some pictures to my album if that is any help the wire came out of where it was

Hi everyone

I've been given a old electric bike, the battery pack didn't work but after carefully looking around I found the relay had a loose connecter, the relay clicked on and off when I wiggled one of the 4 wires, I've done some research on the web, but haven't been able to find a replacement, any help would be greatly appreciated please,

The relay is hls-t90 (15f) 30a 240vac 36vdc

I can only find ones for 30vdc? Their are 5 pins but only 4 being used

Many thanks

Thread: Does anyone have a manual for a Clarkson Grinder
23/04/2023 18:47:27

Hi Dave,

That's fantastic, thank you so much for the quick response just what I needed, my new challenge after this is to make the 3 phase motor run on single phase with a capacitor, hopefully save me buying new 3 phase converter again,

Many thanks again

Hi

I've been trying to restore a Clarkson cutter grinder that I've been given plus the imperia grinder, would anyone know the length of the flat belt for Clarkson grinder mk1 (March grinder) I have a Manuel but can not see the information? I tried searching the interweb but come up with nothing too?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Many thanks

George

Thread: Imperia cutter grinder
15/04/2023 19:05:11

Thank you Noel,

I've consider using a small timing belt but worried about the thickness of it, but if I turned it inside out would the teeth thickness stop the belt flexing enough around the contour of the pulley which is slightly domed, I've never used any machinery with flat belts before?

Many thanks for advise

15/04/2023 15:29:59

Hi everyone,

Would any kind member of the forum know where I could buy a flat belt for the grinder please it's 1 inch wide by 19.5 long

Many thanks

HI everyone,

I brought a the toy a Imperia cutter grinder with a good selection of attachments to go with it, it also came with a instruction Manuel from Tony's lathe website. I've tried to research more pictures and information on the internet, but there is very little to go on does anybody have one of these or have used one

Many thanks

Thread: Chinese diesel heater
03/01/2023 10:40:01

Hi everyone

Just my Tuppence worth, I've use one of these to heat my workshop for over 4 years now, without any issues and found it the cheapest way, being a child of the 70s before H & S got properly intervened, I used common sense when I installed it. I have a little of grid system solar panel charges car battery which runs the diesel heater, I'm not a electrician or heating engineer just a bodger trying to stop my toys rusting, and no I don't have workshop insurance so it's my own risk,

11/12/2022 12:28:55

I have installed one into my workshop, I found its the best way to heat my workshop, I use a couple of larger tractor battery which is charged with a 210watt solar panel on the workshop roof and a cheap pwd inverter, I also have a 12volt 1000 watt to 230v inverter which I use to run my workshop lights or my lathe/mill lighting (led ones) (not my lathe and mill their 3 phase), and any thing else like cordless drill battery packs etc, their not used all at the same time but does help to keep the bills down for the home management

Thread: how to identify a indexable carbide tip
17/08/2022 16:42:28

Hi everyone

Well yesterday I rang a excellent company,( not sure if the rules allow me to name them?), and with a brief description and several emails of my tool holders and tip measurements to their tech team we identify what sizes they were, I placed a small order with them to just to make sure, well today at midday they arrived and were all correct

Many thanks everyone for you help with this

I hope this is not a silly question, but why aren't the cutting tip identification letter and numbers put on the tool holder ?

15/08/2022 17:59:40

Hi old Mart,

I've just checked the measurements on that tip, it's identical to your measurement and has the 8 cutting sides, but theirs is no name on the tip apart from the WV 04

I've put a picture of it in my album

Many thanks

George

Hi everyone,

A few years ago I managed to pick up a number of secondhand indexable carbide tip tools/holders with at least one used carbide tip in each holder, I'm now looking to replace the old warn out tips but having difficulty working out the sizes needed, I've put the tool holder numbers in to Google to find the carbide tips have a totally different number to the holder??, one tool a (kennametal pssnr 2020k12 f2kv26) suggest the replacement to be a SMNG1204. 06 but written on the tip is wv04?, having never purchased new tips before i would greatly appreciate any help for advice please,

I've been to my local engineering firms and had a look at their tool holders and bits they have but haven't been able to identify the ones I have, I have put some pictures in my album

Many thanks again for the help

Thread: Does anyone know what this is for?
11/05/2021 07:21:00

Hi

No I don't own this item, I saw it on Face poke where someone else had asked the question "what is this item" his dad had brought it from an antique shop as a curiosity and didn't know what it was, so I thought I put it on here to see if anyone could help? I'm still in contact with the gent, I will ask the question when he next sees his dad if you would kindly take a video for me
