Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Torque wrench on spark plugs, we need answers so cast your vote now

Agree.

 

I've seen that done. Fastenal Industrial Services makes custom bandsaw blades. Our techs use Lenox blade stock and go take a week long training course at Lenox. Pretty sure they even use Lenox welding machines.

 

We toss them in a scrap metal bin and our local metal recycler comes to get it when it's full. I'll see what I can do, it's not good knife metal really since the actual tips are carbide inserts I believe.

 

You cut them out of the blade material, not where the teeth are.

 

I get that, I just don't think the metal they're made of would be good for it. Too flexible I'd think.

 

I believe you are right, to hold an edge the material needs to be hard, along with hard comes brittle.
With carbide teeth it probably would make a nice little saw blade for pruning small branches though.

 

Divining rods.
The other day Google machinist questions for interviewees and one guy suggested ask if they can find water underground with branch from willow tree
I'm not sure if a branch(s) would work but it boggles my mind it works with a couple pieces of wire.

 

^Ive seen it work with one piece of wire placed loosely in the hand. That's a pretty cool trick to pull out on somebody.

 

I'm no longer wondering why this cylinder on the locking pins in our loader is blowing hydraulic everywhere.

 

Your square isn’t square…

 

Looks brand new what’s the problem?

 

Yeah..... I reckon the smoke got out of it

 

The odd thing, I just found the same machine on several sites sitting in the same place as if it was for sale multiple times. The last time it was listed for $12,500
Talk about a price drop.

 

True true..I remember the old ones that were accused of unintended acceleration

Ahhh yes the old Fire-o haha

 

Probably a scam then.

 

Well if it was, it'd be weird that it says its under power for you to come check out.

 

"Oh, sorry, it's at another location, and there's someone ahead of you, if you want to transfer 'X' dollars to me as a deposit, you can meet me there..." There was someone running that sam out here with Kubota tractors a few years back.

 

Ah. Yeah, it's too much for me and not something I could power or fit in my garage either so I'd never know. I'm kicking myself for not grabbing that lathe.
