Lincoln Tig 250 low stick welding output
Is this a Lincoln TIG 250/250? I have one, bought used decades ago, troublefree for decades, real workhorse. It started acting real odd, couldn't figure it out, sometimes started an arc, sometimes just the HF, power was way off. Turned out to be the contacts in the contactor were worn down to...- Homeshopblob

Lincoln Tig 250 low stick welding output
Have a look at your stick welding leads. I had a curious situation where the stick lead was grounding to the welder enclosure and draining off most but not all of the power. Worked fine on TIG through the torch cable. Also spread the leads out on the floor to make sure the wrapped up leads are...- Homeshopblob

Will a 3 jaw power chuck work on a Warner Swasey #3?
The issue is that the W&S closer pushes on the tube to close, and only pushes. A modern CNC chuck like a Kitagawa gets pulled to close and pushed to open. So you could make it connect by making some parts, but you could only grip on the ID of your parts, not the OD. The W&S actuator does not...- Homeshopblob

unusual sized stel bar stock
There is also Double Disc Grinding. An oversimplification is that they pull oversize material between 2 grinding wheels to take it down to size, and can hold close tolerances on size and squareness. I had it done at New England Grinding and Machine, and a couple other places, they ground 1/4 X...- Homeshopblob

OT - Removing Bleaching? Sharpie Marker out of Granite Counter
Motsenbocker's #3 is worth a try. It will remove permanent sharpie marks from whiteboards. I've used it successfully on some other odd stains that shop chemicals and cleaners wouldn't touch, like cleaner stains on anodizing.- Homeshopblob

OT: Property Damage question... How long should it take to get information or even a police report.

Face groove tool for large diameter
I'll bet it will go larger than 999mm as is, they might be out of digits for that column of data. If not, a little dressing of the tool holder will make it work. It's worth calling Kennametal for their opinion. BTDT on smaller jobs.- Homeshopblob

Face groove tool for large diameter
I'd think the 39" tool would work, either by starting at the small dia and working to the large dia or by relieving the inner side of the tool slightly. What brand is that tool - can you post a link?- Homeshopblob

Reconditioning a PLA-CHECK
+1 for this, if you want to use it on the shop floor and not in a metrology lab. I redid a B&S Hite-Icator. I found the column was assembled of gage block quality parts that needed to be wrung together in order to not have a cumulative error as they were assembled. If I were faced with that...- Homeshopblob
