[Trx250r180]

wonder why Randy got sent to time out ? was he doing something wrong ?

 

[Steve NW WI]

for some reason Randy cant log on ,i just got an email from him

Sent Randy a PM at the other place, hopefully he'll get back to me with what's going on, and I'll post it in Support for him. Seems some others are having trouble today as well.

He got the same as a bunch of us Steve, those goofy error messages when making a post then the computer can't connect to AS.

This is very cool, always like to see something that was once junk resurrected into a running machine.

This is like TV, get to the good part " TO BE CONTINUED"

Seems like Randy mentioned before that by heating the bar pad area first, the case half heated up quicker. I guess its because its more solid than the rest of the case.

With any luck they will have people back on line soon, they think they know what the problem is, then Randy can finish the build.

Heating the bar pad first because it has more mass than the thinner areas. That helps the whole part expand as a unit.

I don't have an IR gun Steve......

Oh, Jen got me back in, somehow my IP addy got blocked out of the server.

My last pic anyway.



Questions?

 

[big t double]

is this a flat rate type job? 150 seems cheap for the amount of time spent...I gotta assume this takes a min of 2 to 2-1/2 hrs. cool thread, thanks for sharing

You are welcome to pay more.

It's only worth so much to revive an old saw.....

We do very few that are that ugly, but we split several a week for rebuilds.

Do you do any kind of prep to the case halves before loctite? When I put transfer case halves together I like to scuff the mating surface with a red scotchbrite.

What size sonic tank do you have? I have told santa I have been a good boy for years trying to get one.

 

[Mastermind]

We sand them with a straight edge and 180 grit.....

Our tank is a two liter unit, and will take a case half fully submerged.

hahaha...fair enough, and I meant no disrespect...I just wondered...just seems like a bit of time involved for an inexpensive price...I like your style sir.

I really appreciate threads like this. That's what "brings us back" to this site.

I tried to give a "like" and a "useful" on the same post but it appears you can only choose one....somebody please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Now, THAT"S what I like to hear! It's not ALL about the money. That's easy for me to say because I do this as a hobby. I also don't take anything away from the saw shop, actually, some of my projects come from the there. He gives me a "buddy deal" on saws that would otherwise just lay in that big wooden box with the rest of the "dead" saws because it costs too much to fix them.

Well "we" are just me and my son-in-law......in a small shop behind the house.
