Nothing pointless about 1000 posts! I'm sure each and every one of them was informative. Ok, most were entertaining.

Geez, I guess we were all bored last night.

Thanks:
I'd post more but I'm a machinst and I mainly glean tech info. I make a lot of washers for the NH grinders, but their aren't many metal or metal working questions here.
Rob

Well Rob, here is a metal working question of sorts. How thick are the washers that you are making for the NH grinder? I made one the other day at work, but I wasn't really sure how thick to make it, so I parted mine off at .060". I also didn't have any stainless laying around, but since I work as a machinist at an aluminum die cast plant, I did have access to a old wore out plunger tip which are made out of beryllium copper, good stuff.

3.535 OD, 3.140 ID, .025 thick. break all corners. We use a lot of stainless, so I got some 416 because it machines so well. Since you machine away 97%, you hate to pay for it.

It looks like I made mine thicker than necessary.

I. don't even have a grinder, someone told me the specs.

It seems to work fine, I have always had the tendency to over build things.

When in doubt, over whelm it.

Yeah, where I work, production can tear up anything, so you had better overbuild it.

I know, some people can wreck an anvil with a tack hammer.

Congrats Sling'r ,, but i'm also awaiting some more videos

 

[reachtreeservi]

Yeah, we need some vids of those anvil wrecking ,tack hammer wielding menaces to society.

You can't see stuff like that on the you tube, Mr.

Brilliant

Thread is meaningless, but gets a great start on the next thou!

 

[Stihl 041S]

Is this a thread on the meaning of being pointless or the point of being meaningless?

Perhaps the pointlessness of meaning?


And I'm all the way up to ONE post! :greenchainsaw:

That would be a good point but that would give it meaning

I've got a metal question for you here. Is this corrosion or a casting flaw? This is a NOS 084 case. I have no idea how old it may be.

I would say that is corrosion because that is a machined surface and surely to goodness they wouldn't sent that thru like that.
