Wow, what a shock, I just saw Al in Indy a few months ago and he was his usual energetic self. Speedy recovery Al! :)

Made some more pulls today, fixed the oiler issue and got a good base line for starting on the EngMod2T simulation software. This thing is repeating very, very well, I actually got three runs back to back to back within 0.01 HP of each other. Most others were within 0.05 or 1% or so.

Ya, this pipe is long and the needle is rich, just giving the unit a shake down after some mods and getting a baseline.

A little update, I've trimmed the wheel to 5" and am getting run times where I want them. Having some issues with vibration on the oiler at the coupler but I've isolated it now and will try it tomorrow. I recently got the EngMod2T software and am digging into it, it's very detailed and will...

Thanks, I've been using Anycubic Tough and ABS like lately and it's holding up fine. 1/4 the price of Liqcreate too.

What an embarrassment.

What props are they?

Congratulations Don, you have worked tirelessly for our organization for decades, well deserved!

Awsome as always, thanks for posting!

I like Cleveland drills and taps, now Greenfield but still quality USA made: https://www.gfii.com/brands/cleveland

It's just a WCOW carbide insert with a TiAIN coating, I got that little boring bar a few years ago and it's been great, C06-24W405 on pg. 53 if interested. The case bushings actually have to be done from the back so the 4" long solid carbide bar really helps. I did get a Sumitomo PCD insert...

I got 44mm (1.732") between the vertical flats under the lugs, I'd make the case fit tight in the fixture there to help align it lengthwise to the spindle. The holes are 52mm wide (2.047") x 31mm long (1.220"), check these to be sure, it's from an old drawing I dug up. You have a bore gage...

I've put a lot of miles on it and refurbed it quite a bit since I got it from you forty years ago! Coosa board floor and doors, King board interior, wheel adapters etc. Latest is sliding boat trays, I must be gettin' old!

A bore gage would be the best to measure it I'd think, the pockets are deep enough for my run of the mill Mitutoyo unit, maybe borrow one? I never had much luck boring to tenths on the mill with my old Criterion head, it's easier with the Wohlhaupter but still challenging. I'd do it on a lathe...

CMB's bearing to case fit on most sizes is between about 5-7 tenths, the tight side of M5-M6: https://www.skf.com/ca/en/products/rolling-bearings/principles-of-rolling-bearing-selection/bearing-selection-process/bearing-interfaces/tolerances-and-resultant-fits If you were somehow able to press...
