1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

@Ozark_RegCab I took the Taco to Newton County last weekend. For about 1/2 the gas I still got to check on the sites.

 

Anyone know how to get primer overspray off a windshield? Scraper doesn't work so probably need chemical. Regular acetone not working either

 

The ammonia window cleaners have always worked for me; I used that for some fall out that'd stick to my glass

 

Scraper being? A new razor blade should get it off with the acetone.

 

ITX won’t fit dual. I think the RTX was purely an issue if I didnt have the free funds at the time

 

Yep that's what I tried
I ended up scratching the glass more than I got off the problem

 

Hmmmm

 

Damn, new blade? Never experienced a new blade scratching as long as it had some lubricant like a cleaner or water with it.

 

Think this is a sign to just build myself a larger press and get a nice bottom v block

On the plus side, my tapping for raw voltage has me up and running again @mechanicjon so nice to see the two circuits are separate in the VIM module





The crappy thing is, the new bottom die allows for a 3/4" leg and this part exceeds that yet still had some trouble bending

You can see the far end tie down point is actually bent outwards, but on the close end it's a nice 90



Here's that bent edge



Definitely needs a tighter radius



Got both sides bent up since "I'm already there"

Feels strong as hell but it's all out of square so it's scrap







Solution is simple; more tonnage and better block not to mention making those notches a little more pronounced at the ends for bending

 

Damn, would've thought thinner and a crispy blade would do it.
I've used baking soda and vegetable oil and a blade for adhesives, not tried on paint though.

 

PB blaster or Seafoam

 

Hmm ya PBblaster worked on some latex paint one time, good ideas

 

Brake clean works excellent on spray paint

 

Between the interstate closed for a wreck and all the construction... looking like I'll be sitting in traffic no matter what on my commute. Construction is funneling everyone to the same streets. So here I sit trying to decide if I just work late and wait for traffic to ease or go fight the bullshit....

 

Go find a spot close by to get a beer?

 

Also a probability.
