    2 hp knee mill price

    Sorry for the confusion. Reason being, lathes and mills are few and far between here, so I’ve been keeping an eye in Ontario because of the selection. And was wondering if this was something others have done for the price it costs. I have a couple quotes now, around 2 grand shipping.

    2 hp knee mill price

    If only I was in Ontario, instead I’m in the middle of Newfoundland at a mine in the middle of nowhere . Thank you though. What a price! Even if it had something wrong with it

    2 hp knee mill price

    It’s a 240 3 phase, which is a plus for me. Amazon VFD and I’m good to go. It is a private sale , I was thinking it was a company . Id hate to burden somebody and not actually pull the trigger on this because yes it is steep. But being a private sale looks like I’m down to about 5500 lol .

    2 hp knee mill price

    Looking at a milling machine located in Ontario, with price of the machine and shipping I’ll be close to 6 grand. Looks like a decent machine but it’s a Bridgeport look alike. It does look taken care of. I’m looking at close to 2 g shipping costs . There’s rarely ever one for sale in the area...

    Atv stripped hub

    This is it. Shaft worked out to be average 1.125” hub is at 1.125”, grabs nice after 10 seconds or so. The pin is a tight fit. This will have a tack weld on the back as wel just to be sure.

    Atv stripped hub

    My son has a rzr 170cc, with the throttle limited to 50-60% and he still managed to crack the frame clean off in the rear, lol, chain and sprockets are in bad shape already as well. He is 6, been driving sense he was 2.5-3 years old.

    Atv stripped hub

    It definitely wasn’t the finest weld I’ve seen that’s for sure lol. But the hub was already damaged before welding. No shame in the atv either. I’m not sure the kms but I know the guy and a lot of those kms were hauling atleast 1/4 cord loads of wood. Through rough paths.

    Atv stripped hub

    That’s odd, this is for a Honda atv. Seems around here to be common in all Hondas, because they usually have a straight axle. Whereas other brands have gone with cv axles with fail before any splines would. I’m not into small stuff like this. Most things I work with have atleast a 2-3 shaft...

    Atv stripped hub

    I’m not sure what else to do with it. I guess we will see. Obviously splines don’t work, this is a common problem across all atvs

    Atv stripped hub

    The whole shaft seems fine. Small bend but that’s normal. The hub will be removable, just not as easy as a splined hub. Same as an electric motor coupling. .001-.0015” interference. Which are removable with heat as well

    Atv stripped hub

    I’ll post pics later but a buddy of mine has a stripped splines on the hub and axle. I was going to focus on new splines and get a new hub ordered but that failed before so it might again. I couldn’t find any info on anybody doing this but my plans are to machine the hub, measure, and build the...

    Mini milling machine

    These gaskets are seem the same design as a “spiral round” pipe gasket, for the aluminum head side with graphite on the manifold side. Very similar to a head gasket I guess but with the addition of graphite. Doesn’t take much to get a good seal. This manifold for example, from the rear to the...
