the triblades are rated to about 12000 rpm, ign cutoff is about 10500 on a sthil

its gone up due to tariffs since then!

bunnings D bottle is $125 refill, i think about double that as a deposit. open sundays one bottle lasts about 1/2 a mitsi

swap a bottle from bunnings if you use less than 1 bottle a year. if you use the 2, the boc deal is better (they had a deal like that, 2 a year or something, check they still have it) the little disposable ones last 1 patch and are done

overspending is something im always avoiding i would actually be running the disc slower than my grinder does, which is why i think it will work thats a bit small, but i have looked at them. for the right size $150-200ish, apparently last longer than an abrasive disc. (actual cold saws have a much lower rpm too so im probably not going to use one of those blades) vs about $15 for a grinder cutting disc my grinder isnt shielded from concrete dust and water, but still goes, so probably fine for the amount i cut id be buying a cutting disc for the 9" anyway i guess

i bought this for a dollar because it didnt go, and my plan was to bracket a 9" grinder to it and use it as a metal chopsaw. unfortunately when i put it on the bench, some dust came out, and now it works perfectly. i cant see any reasons why i couldnt put a cutting disc on it and send it? (with some clamps and a metal guard for safety) 1640w 4900rpm vs my grinders 2400w 6600 rpm

lol, my morrie accelerator pedal was bent almost flat at the bend due to 60 years of flat to the floor driving. ironically making the throttle only open 70%

do you think a magneto and copper plugnwires would put out enough RF noise to fry a chip in the engine bay? (The answer appears to be it will possibly fry the antenna in the chip from all the magneto, copper wire, and nonresistor plugs. But i guess they put it in the doorframe or whatever/another black numberplate debacle)

I cut the last one to bits with a craft knife. It had like aquarium gravel in about 5mm under the soft stuff. Shit job all round

but then you can blame the GN!

Try a GN!

plastic fuel and oil cans started in the late 50s but not till the 70s and the advancements of HDPE did they become ubiquitous Shell was using them in the 50s HERES A 1966 ADVERTISEMENT 🤓 tho you could remove the water box, plastic jugs, posters, and radio, and then id have to start looking at the cigarettes and what electrical code the socket's are built to

would still be dirt floors in the UK in the 50s, concrete floors are for people who dont do work in their sheds (pushes up glasses, actually the best workshop floors were parquet oak, 6 inches thick, grain facing up)

yeah there should be one, mine doesnt have one and stops ok tho

i welded along the flat bit and then the open end is welded to the trailer too. so probably the same or better than a normal weld on tie down loop. they are 10mm, and cheaper than trailer loops. for main wheel ties id probably do some waterjet plates welded as much as possible mainly suggesting as a waybtonget as many ties as possible for junk collecting. they are perfect size for ratchet strap ends, ever borrowed a trailer and the hooks dont fit in the tie down poonts, holy shit

i used scaffold pig tail pins

i have this

its fucked, but i guess il fix it again one day. have considered putting a morrie on the chassis tbh basically every bit of metal i havent replaced yet is bubbling up

i have some german? ones that are a sort of soft wax inside a cottonball. they are very effective

Had a look. Runs for 15 seconds at idle before powering off. Powers off instantly if I strike an arc. 12 of the inverter mosfets are shorted, so probably that..... Need to check a couple bits to figure out why, but $15 for a dozen replacements

Pulled it apart to see today Control boards look fine, tested everything i could test. Inspected pump, solenoids, all the switches Nothing wrong with it. Maybe the chip has shit itself, that's about all I can't test. Date of 2019 on the board. What rubbish

I did my little trailer with a bunch of 2nds facia/barge board. Can get it in 40x200 (which is 180x29 because dressed timber is retarded)
