    small update
    progress is being made on the wet blaster rebuild but at a cost :-( mainly one broken pump impeller when I striped the pump unit
    to fix the 3 phase motor bearings. All is not lost thankfully found a Qld surplier of this machine (very helpful I might add )
    The bloke I was talking to has had this same modle for 30 yrs and yes you can buy parts, impleller for less than $300 (thank fuck for that) and can still buy new for 13k
    as I dont have 13k best I feix this one

    Some how I think they got their moneys worth out of the hopper


    Some donated 1.6 s/s sheet (would have loved something a bit thicker but free is free) I probbly shouldnt have been drunk
    when I cut it with some turbo shears ( powered tin snips ) as the hrs of tig would have been easier but then I wouldnt have beeen pissed and what fun is that....


    All that work and hassel just to get to those two fucking bearings thank fuck one was well and truly fucked cause I would have cried like a little girl if I went though all that for nothing ( and answering to scotty after I told him I wouldnt touch the pump lol )


    Last but not least I picked up a new toy. Well it would have ended up as land fill so I gave it a home......
    my new bike lift. Its well in need of some loving and Ill prob wish I left it where I found it (I a room of acid no joke lol) but when the price is turn up and take it away who am I not to do just that...( the hydrulics are worth enough) even if I only use the one ram left working the unit was rated at 2 ton

    sorry mate I have a penis

    and dan when you have your own hydroblaster you can take the edge off any way you like you cheeky cunt lol
    id finished 2 thirds of the tig work till I found the pulse setting I liked :-( its true tho remember the 33% rule with pulse
    it really works nice

    when I say bike lift it will have the 1/2 plate top I already have and prob a frame work of 50 or 75 4-6 wall rhs and be used
    for jig work as well

    story time before the bonox kicks in
    so our hero has one of those days. He then finds a cool fresh drink in his hands, his son fast asleep.
    what to do with his time he asks...well lets finish the digital read out on the qwill of the mill.
    All the hard work had been done. All the mounts made and the lot test fitted to the $40 halfco read out he fucked makeing them.
    Still he thought $80 and some time was a very small price to pay for the benifit of such things.
    Like clock work it came together, all bonded and the use of thread locker liberal.
    A master peice, a triumph, a complete and fucking cock up..........

    How the universe reminds how dumb we really fucking are. All works a treat and I really am happy with what I did but tell me please how the fuck I drilled the holes at the wrong end and its upside down. I would just turn the slide up the right way but when I took the slide of the last one that is what fucked it. So there you have it ever time I use the fucking thing I will think to myself your not as smart as you like to think you are lynton.......
    still cool though for fuck all money
