It was a common thing to do in the 40s 50s, it wouldn't be ideal but if you used the factory single plane manifold it might work well, I copied an original. 1 Quote

Valiant Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 I made a faux sawn off shotgun for a friends Krav Maga class this weekend. It's a piece of framing timber and some electrical conduit, I'm pleased with how it turned out. 9 Quote

Popular Post Lord Gruntfuttock Posted September 13, 2018 Popular Post Posted September 13, 2018 Dishwasher packed up again yesterday. Same fault, different drawer. Home sick so had a look. Yep, same heater element relay had burnt off same pin. Must be a common fault given both mine have done it... De-soldered and pulled relay, couldn't be arsed getting another relay from eBay so thought I'd try repairing it... Drilled out board where the short pin was to make room for my bodge fix... And soldered copper wire to very short stub on relay, fed thru hole and re-soldered other pins to board... Laid wire along track and soldered at couple of points... Seems to have worked, just done a cycle ok. Might buy me a few more months... 14 Quote
Popular Post Muncie Posted September 19, 2018 Popular Post Posted September 19, 2018 I Scrapheap specced this testbed for chain testing out of cast offs at work to save me carting things to a different branch. Its mint! Have done some destruction testing using it its not broken a sweat at all. Converted hydraulic pump to 230v from 12 volt, has a 50ton loadcell in it for load testing though ive dialed it back to 30t for simplicity sake 50t test components are fucking huge. Thats a 50t shackle hanging off to the right. 10 Quote
peteretep Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 Mean. You are just testing break load? so no computer attached for seeing how it broke? My parents are buying a load tester at the moment, I think its 5 ton tension and compression. Has computer attached for displaying failure modes etc which should be pretty cool. Quote
Muncie Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 @peteretepJust saves peak load for destruction testing i basically only do destructive testing with it as an indication only excercise. It is calibrated for load testing though. Have a 200t bed for anything else that needs to be destructed which does printouts graphs and data, has thick steel guards over it to capture any shrapnel its a cringeworthy excercise watching the graph on that puppy! You know whats coming but you still jump. 4 Quote
63Ragtop Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 Had a play with cad router the other night at work, we use it for cutting up signage, stickers, etc... Was trying to get it to mill tow different depths, but it think I got the layers backwards so it cut over everything the same. 8 Quote
