A horse and a half repulsion induction motor will have quite a bit more starting torque than a cap start motor. Once either one is up to speed it's close to a draw. The RI motors make a bit more...

Just to add to the confusion I'm thinking that that motor does not look like a 3hp motor. It's not big enough. I'm going with the wrong data plate opinions. I don't think a motor with 230 volt...

I've never seen a T5. Lots of T4s though. Great find. Be careful.

That my marbles roll away before my body gives up. On the other hand I hope that when I die my friends all say; "hey, he was supposed to pay for lunch this week".

I agree with both Michael and Nick. While the when of the decline of American woodworking tools began is endlessly debatable there is no question in my mind that it did happen. I have a mustard...

I use surgical masks that have elastic loops for over the ear attachment. The stamped 3M masks stop very little dust. Better still is a fitted OSHA mask with particulate filters (purple usually). I...

Here in Nevada we don't care much for lotteries. It discourages most of the rubes and goldbrickers from visiting here to pay our taxes for us. We were formally a low tax state and though...

I got sucked into that vortex using PayPal as a payment source. The company that I had initially signed up with failed to disclose that it was an auto renew membership at $35/month. I was trying to...

I do not use ad blocking anywhere, and I watch the ads one time at least. I never the less will continue to browse until I make a commitment to the hobby (not a pro) and the site. If one can't try...

Maggie looks like she's got some Dobergirl in her. I've been owned by Doberman Pincers most of my life. Great dogs, especially the females. Anyway, of the three magazines I think Kitplane is the...

It's weird isn't it. Check the hybrid view at the top of the page and locate where the thread has gone. It's not linear, it goes by way of who responded to whom.

You have to feed them. Anyplace here where you put water hay will grow. Some areas have extensive irrigation districts. Oddly though, you've heard of wild horses eh? We have them everywhere you go...

Would it blow dust and debris from the shop into the paint booth?

I wouldn't think Perry that you got a satisfactory answer there. No single premises can have two services but in your case you see it all the time. The well house isn't a premises. I need to think...

Do you get a lot of lightning strikes where you are? If this is a frequent event I think the utility should be involved. If lightning is making direct strikes on power lines you got a problem. There...

AOPA, Sport Aviation (EAA), and Kitplane. That's one heck of a fine animal you got there in your Avatar.

Thanks Jim. I knew it was one of those high tech billionaires I just can't keep them straight. By the way, I used to live in Woodland Washington not far from you. We still have many friends in the...

I have. I took a used RV battery charger and took out the regulator circuit making it a straight "brute force" DC supply. I then plugged the charger into a variac so that I could control the voltage....

Hey Mike, I'm really new to all this but what's wrong with using one of those little steam pots to clean out the holes then using Titebond I. Is there no payoff staying with the hide glue as original?

Chapter 11 is a request for restructuring. The problem is that F+W has been attempting to self restructure since 2013 according to the filing and has only dug deeper. What is the first rule of holes?...

Yup. Grain elevators and woodworking shops blow up too.

This post by Mister Coers is spot on. I installed these systems in the petroleum industry. The goal is to mitigate by design so that there is no classified area to protect. A totally enclosed fan...

It's sad. My wife worked her entire life at three daily newspapers all of which are still going but only barely. We spend so much time at these keyboards that we don't have time to fully digest...

Nice to meet you neighbor!

Around these parts wells are either too deep to discuss or you punch a hole 20' deep in the back yard and you have to put a plug in it to keep the water from flooding the area. Artesian wells they...
