    Possible new attachment....

    For some reason I picture that being used on your Hanix. Not sure why but I picture busting up hard clay etc with it.

    A bit larger Diesel engine than what I have in my two Kubota's!

    Been to the museum and also crossed the lake on the Badger. I found it interesting that there was only about a twenty minute time period that you couldn’t see either shoreline.

    Plasma cutting

    Water table I presume? It would help take some of that fine particulate smoke out of the air.

    Metal In Cylinder z482 Engine

    That looks familiar to a Cummins I repaired years ago where an impeller from the intake side of the turbo broke off and got swallowed by a cylinder.

    3D PRINTER

    Thank you all for taking the time to educate me! RWS: I think you are correct for suggesting to find a cad program before investing in a printer. I have used Autocad LT since the mid 90’s and taught myself 3D using Spaceclaim, which was about as intuitive as you could get. But at 3k per year...

    3D PRINTER

    I know several of you own a 3D printer and my question is, if you were to buy another one which one would you buy and why. Also, what software would you buy to support it?

    Plasma cutting

    You will get better with experience. I found it was not only the sight but also the sound that told me my speed was optimal.

    Just a neat size for doing probably eighty percent of the things we drill!

    Milling on the lathe

    As a general rule of thumb, I tell people that are considering buying a mill that you will invest the same as the purchase price buying tooling. Collets, chucks, boring head, vise, end mills etc. But you don’t need everything at once. Buying new accessories is part of the fun. And it opens up a...

    Kubota BX23 motor mount joint separation

    Got some advice for a “3 way” ……….(from my wife…;)…..(she thinks it’s better in the front, not the rear?)

    If my mill dro dies I will have a new one on order that same day! Can’t imagine using the mill without one!

    I put feeds on all three axis on my mill. Probably can count the number of times I have used the Y axis feed on one hand. Don’t get me wrong, I am glad to have it when I need it. But you won’t be sorry if you install one on the Z. Cranking that handle gets old quickly.
