Still a mess, but I'm glad we saved thousands of dollars painting rather than replacing. Doors on and hopefully finishing up most of the rest of the house this week.

With some (ok, a lot of) help from the famous Juk, I now have a sweet workbench and reloading setup. Also, a shout out to Eagle Chaplain for bus generosity in providing the workbench! And then I cranked out a few rounds of 357. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I ordered a Thumler's Tumbler that has a much larger motor than the C-frame motor on the Hazard Frought. The Thumler's has been working great for a few weeks, so I decided to modify the HF tumbler with a similar motor. I found a site https://www.surplussales.com//Motors/Motors-5.html that had a Fasco U63 motor for $23 plus shipping ($31.50 ). I reversed the drive shaft and made a bracket to mount the new motor on the old HF tumbler. Seems to work OK.

Bought a new Cub Cadet riding mower 3.5 years ago. Never did anything with it other than fuel and about a once a year hose down. Well, got on amazon and ordered a tube up kit and new blades earlier this week. Thing runs like a raped ape and cut like Edward Scissorhands. Bitch to do the blades by myself, without the blade locking tool and not following directions by dropping deck. Flat backed it all. 8 beer job.

Yes, that is relatively true. Scraped it all clean and hosed it down too. Thing is spotless. Definitely can use the tool and will drop the deck next time.

The Thumler's motor has an internal fan, but strangely the new one doesn't. Both are thermally protected, so I hope that means that they will shut down before they burn out. I had a spare computer fan that I ziptied to the bracket holding the new motor, and it seems to cool the motor down some. Another small problem was the new motor is 1550 RPM vs the HF 3000 RPM, so the drum was turning slowly. I made a new drive pulley out of a small pipe thread tape spool that I had laying around. Fit perfectly on the 1/4 in. motor shaft and doubled the drum RPM.

Finally got my van working again. A while ago it started shifting inconsistently, ABS light was on, speedo stoped working Turned out to be the capacitors I had soldered into the PSOM (speedo/odo module). The black disc part wasn’t completely connected Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
