Maybe this is off topic? But there is machining involved! If it's in the wrong spot, my apologies. I'm currently restoring the front half of my old WD45. I've been trucking along just fine, but I could use some assistance with the flywheel. The engine was originally pulled to do a rear main...

Has anyone ever used Flamal 29, or Linde(formerly known as Praxair) equivalent Starflame? Their literature says that they are better in everyway to acetylene, but of course I am a little bit skeptical... After I got my last invoice from Linde, I am forced to move to purchased bottles from a...

So this, must as my last "project post", will be a living archive. I in the past tried this with practical, but was , shall we say, less than successful in engaging the audience. I posted in the "it followed me home" about this mill, but for those who don't know, its a Brown and Sharpe No2...

I have few cutters here, some are chipped, they all are dull, but in the spirit of this amazing community these are of no cost other than shipping to you. That is of course if you are not going to sick them in a tool box and never do anything with them. I want these to be used. the angle...

So, I did it AGAIN...... Saw a machine for a good price and decided to drag it home. I seem to find happiness in impulse buying rust. When I looked at it the spindle was locked, but spun free in neutral, and the ways looked decent from what I could see. So I went for it. Whats the worst...
