Thread: Poly V Belt Conversion |

i too have looked at this kit for quite some time now and wondered the same thing. Would it be possible to use ali instead of the cast iron suggested. far easier to machine and obtain than the cast. also a bit cheaper. cleaner to machine. no dust to clean up. So im watching this with more than a little interest. I hope there are some good answers to mull over

Thread: How do you fight workshop/shed condensation |
12/11/2013 22:01:16 |
i built my shed 2 years ago now. brand new bought from the local shed and general garden wooden building emporium which has now disappeared..!! I insulated with 1 inch thick/thin polystyrene boards. Floor, roof, walls and door. then laid10mm plywood from the local plywood supplier over the top of that. Again, floor, roof, walls and door. my 12X6 shed now measures 5'6" by 11'6" internally. in addition to this i use a small cheapo electrical blow heater set to give a low, comfortable heat, and left turned on 24/7. It gets turned up slightly in the colder weather that invades my small area of the world [UK] occasionally, but otherwise is left alone. I have absolutely NO condensation at all. At least i have seen NONE at all in the time the shed has been built and inhabited. it contains tools such as a lathe and a miller and associated tools and lots of wooden cabinets to support and store said tools. Again,NO condensation. make of this what you will. there are also 3 windows in the shed. Glass. and never a bead of damp on any of them. in the past 2 years i have had ZERO - 0% of condensation. cost of the heater is minimal due to the thermostatic control.

Sorry to re-open this topic but I am a little confused over the Serial Number of my own Super 7 Lathe. The number is stamped at the tailstock end, like most others, and it is SK 52518, which seems to be much earlier than those on this Forum beginning with an 8! It's the standard Super 7, in grey with a fitted gearbox.
Can anyone explain this very low number please? Thanks. Geoff

Graham, can i suggest that you take a look at the monitor settings you have chosen, ie. brightness, contrast, colour, and any other settings available to you and also to have a look in your settings/control panel at your display settings and also, [dont know what MS calls it] your Accessability settings. See what you have available for making the screen easier to look at in general
Z
PS
if you do go ahead and use the suggested setting for alowing all pages to be rendered in YOUR choice of colours, then it strips away ALL colours on all pages. Basically turns everything into a sea of black, white, red and blue. Which from what you've said may be too much of a stark contrast for you. But you can of course try it and set it back if you dont lie it.

Katy, thanks for the explanation. Again,as i said in my previous answer to Davids reply, which crossed with yours timewise, it was not clear nor had anything actually been explained in plain terms. Again, now i understand that you are the IT person, this wasnt explained before. David has his role, this wasnt exactly explained clearly previously either. But both questions have now been answered nce and clearly so that even an idiot like me can understand. The answers were clear and precise and from the horses mouths, so to speak. Not assumptions and guesswork...........
i make no apologies for asking the question in the first place

David thanks for the explanation now i understand, whereas before it wasnt explained by anyone or exactly clear what was happening
