Hi all I haven't had time to poste much since the spring, I hope you've all had a busy summer, its been a busy summer down here albeit I haven't had time on the fergie or any of my own projects, its now starting to get chilly and the nights are getting longer so time to think about getting back in the workshop and almost time to be getting the fire on. I am almost finish sorting out a customers VW T25 loads of welding and body work I am almost ready to primer and spray it thank god. Ive been thinking of make a mobile air mover or extractor for moving the fumes out of the workshop for a while. Today I thought I would make a start on one I had a couple of woods spray booth fans under cover for a year or two or even three, so I figure I would mount them in an old heating oil tank. I had plasma a couple circles out and cut a piece from the rear and I welded some strengthening pieces in to hold the fans as they a quite heavy.
So far so good this afternoon I managed to hopefully sort out the wiring, I hate wiring 3 phase for some reason I alway wire it the wrong direction fingers crossed, I fitted a switch inside out of any weather I am hoping to switch them both on and off on the one switch. I should be able to pick up a plug in the morning. I have never had them running so it will be interesting to see if they work and what sort of air they will move. If they are ok I will make up some sort of grill to protect ones fingers from the blades. Here a few pick from today fingers crossed for tomorrow
Cheers
