I was meaning the pallet truck

Michael

where are you? I would willingly help

dont try to do it by yourself

if you get the boards down and have another to help get the delivery driver to use his truck to get it to teh garage bribe him if ness..pallet co’s i have had deliver had an electric truck which would make short work of 20 foot

This is the broken part I’m sure bolted and welded it would make a good vice for someone

Bill. (Peak4) spotted a good looking vice on facebook reasonably local so a quick 50 mile round trip has got me a record 112 in fairly good condition

well spotted that man !!!

Was squeezing a collar onto a lump of steel…guess it was too much of an interference fit..

i will sadly mis this faithful servant perhaps i misused him one time to many

Just unclip the ferrite and do without it ....i've never found that they make any difference

or relocate to where you want it

Mark.....wheres "here"

Bendict the compass did look good

Lidl have metric micrometers at £7 quite servicable for that price

thread gauges metric ok but rivits a bit stiff £4

angle gauges for drills and threads£4

Ive just checked my stock of tube

i have a tube 12.5 " x 4.5" id x 13swg ( 2.65mm)

happy to let it go for £100 ish posted?

if you want to try a single phase inverter i have a few secondhand units in as new condition

I do make quite a few 6tpi whit form 1 3/8 and 1 1/2 and 2” 4.5 tpi a month

it always involves a lot of gear changing cover removal etc…even though a student has the gearbox to do a 3 tpi …but with a change of driver gear.

then changing it all back again to do finer threads and the metric ones i do ( 3.5mm)

i wondered if a ELS would make it better..i did fondly imagine that there was an encoder on the leadscrew too so the start and stop could be automated..i do have problems engaging and disconnecting the handle particularly when doing deep blind holes and usually leave the handle engaged and reverse out

Mike

i was more thinking of the cutting loads driving the lead screw quite fast with large chip loads

I have just read the article in ME..but cant find the kit mentioned from clough42 is it on eBay?

i would like to fit a system on a Colchester student..will it handle 6tpi and 4.5 tpi threads? 2 inches diameter in steel?

The slower speed duncan is because of slip its still a sychnonous motor

Perhaps 4 ( or however many )pears generally weigh 610 g

on a different note i bought some safety guard switches (ferroguard) and they were made in Dominican Republic

not a country i'd think about for other than fruit and veg

Some time ago i made a few of these as a fun thing for company electricians and a few for electrical suppliers in the sheffield area
