Hi just got a new project got a portass model s model lathe needs some restoration but looking forward to the challenge. It only has two change gears with it but I have read elsewhere that you can attach a windscreen wiper motor to the screw with a speed controller just wondering if anyone else...
Yes that's a good idea with the stepping down. I have also done exactly that I sanding sealed it 4 times than a wax over it I think varnish can make it look cheap. Good minds think alike.
It's hard to explain I have tried new roll of wire and new tips but not the liner that will be the next thing to try as not been done for a long time. It like it starters to weld for a second then breaks like jittering
hello my welder has started to do this thing and I carnt work out whats going on, the gas is not the problem. when I try to weld it is like it is spitting then will weld fine for a bit and the do this jumping spitting thing. ive checked the gas so its not that can anyone help. its a Clarke 100e...
this is a better deal than the hobbyweld 5 price. It nearly double pressure for cheaper refill. I'm going to use up my bottle of hobbyweld then go and get this. ill have a read of this on how you do it.
don't think it is an avr geni its a Chinese thing. I was thinking maybe the capacitor is failing too. I am learning about these things. when I increased the idol speed it gets to a point where the light ive pluged in is the brightest but not as bright as it should after that idol speed it...
thanks guys yes I'm going to keep it as it is it is for inside so ill clean it and then lacquer it. I just had a horse shoe from my sisters horse and thought I woul have a go. I need to get myself a blow torch but money doesn't allow at the moment.
Hi I'm looking for a supplier that stock flat bar sheet steel and rods and maybe someone who does scraps . I was going bandq but thought there must be somewhere cheaper thanks guys
