I must crush you

 

Wife is back to work, so my only free days to work on the tata are now consumed by child rearing. This build might just creep for a while, dont know when ill find time to tune more.

 

Det cans? Me like. Linky?
<br />Have fun with the kid. I barely get enough time with just work.

 

****, forgot to get you a pic of vics ****, still need?


Buy "listen up" on ebay for $5. Obtain 1/4 MNPT to 3/8" barb, perform dremel stuff, glue it in with the adhesive of your choosing.

6 ft of 3/8" air compressor line from the depot for $4, and I still need to make the other end that bolts to the block.

im going to have about $10 of materials into it, and $80 in labor lol

 

Might help, think I got it though.
<br />That pretty much describes your car...

 

so true

 

Perfect. That's what I have-ish.

 

Yummy


Prototype 750x inconel m10 stud. I've got 5 more coming once I sign off on the dimensions. Total cost: $18

 

mucho sexo.

 

In for Inconel!

Good job sourcing them.

 

Dimensions modified slightly, un-threaded shank just a bit too long. Also the major diameter on this one is a little large as it was the test piece to see what kind of cuts he(my friend) could make. He said it didnt like anything under 0.020 DOC, so he tried to home run the OD and it deflected more than he thought. Program has been modified accordingly. Im told this 750 is still a bitch to machine.

 

Badness

I hate eyeballing deflection, I'm doing something somewhat similar at the moment.

 

Ive only had to deal with it on boring operations myself, Ive had to scrap a few pieces.

BTW, your piece is in the chuck, smaller ID is established, then got busy again.

 

Nice, I got my new brake lines yesterday, thinking I might be able to try yet again this weekend.

Stupid phone won't take pictures.

 

Those the ones from jegs?

Older phones don't like shiny things, especially against dark backgrounds.

 

Yeah, don't ever buy the black $20 rug from walmart. Buy a $20 rug sure, but not a black one. You should see the pictures I tried to take of the moon the other night...

Yep, these are the jegs lines. The seating flare inside the 3an line is brass or something on these lines, the other lines were steel or something light colored. Hopefully the brass is less prone to cracking...

You could use whatever 14" 3an line you felt like using too, I just like the cheap stuff.

 

@deezums

 

Hell yeah! Those are sexy!

I've got new cam bolts on the way, then I'm getting an alignment, then I'm driving to kc for more aluminum to make you and rallas some brackets.

 

Theyre not perfect, but I nailed most of your dimensions pretty good, especially for a baby china lathe. I made sure that the ODs were +0, -0.001 and the IDs +0.001, -0 if they weren't exact.

No hurry, unlike some people. Let me know when those are done and ill put these in the mail. If you need em sooner, just let me know and ill put you in the honor system.
