The better disk is the cheaper thinnest one.

Unless your angle iron is too tall to fit under the skate, and you need the cup to reach the 28mm?

YRD Fri 10 October 2008 09:58

My only doubt was quality of cut

Gerald D Fri 10 October 2008 10:17

The cup disk should give you slightly better control, because the disk will be a little bit stiffer (more rigid). But you cannot cut so deep with a cup disk. (It will have a shorter life). It looks like that thin cup disk is only available in Brasil. <----- note the "s" :)

Disk
 
Accurate.:)

As for spelling: until the 19th century at the time of the Empire (yes Brazil has an emperor - only in America) was written with a "Z". Officially today is with "S".

Similar cases with translations into Beijing.

Thanks Gerald / Kobus.

After 4 hours of work :eek:

...I personally like the beer can. All good work should be rewarded. :D

YRD Sat 11 October 2008 14:11

I agree Sean.

I already have a collection for this project :cool:

What does "B" in drawing 10 20 246?

domino11 Wed 15 October 2008 10:09

Rev B for Drawing 10 20 246 changed the location of the proxy switch target holes.

Are you talking of this B?:


YRD Wed 15 October 2008 11:14

Yes it is.

But not understand the function. Alignment?

Thanks Gerald

Used first for safety - the proximity switch (silver colour) senses the hole and stops the movement

Can also be used for electronic alignment (home position)

Wow sorry man :o

That dirt!

This is the best I could clean. It is possible to apply the Prime ?

Or should I leave the steel cleaner?

smreish Fri 17 October 2008 20:36

...looks ready for primer to me!

gmessler Fri 17 October 2008 20:39

Any more polishing on those pipes and they'd be ready for chrome plating.:D

looking good:)

Marc Shlaes Fri 17 October 2008 20:41

Looks good. Shoot it with clear! :D

Gerald D Fri 17 October 2008 21:50

More than enough grinding, but have you got all the grease off? For me it is more important to wash the grease away with a solvent or a detergent.

YRD Sat 18 October 2008 04:43

Thanks Sean, Greg and Marc. :cool:

Gerald,
Use solvent applied with HVLP.

After tetroxide of lead (Pb3O4).

Then painted in BLUE :D

Gerald D Sat 18 October 2008 05:06

Yuri, spraying solvent and then using a lead paint would be forbidden in countries with strict environmental laws. That is why those countries export their solvents and lead paints to us where we are still allowed to use it.

YRD Sat 18 October 2008 06:10

Detergent
 
1 Attachment(s)
Message received and understood Master ;).

Here the law should not allow this application. So I will apply the extra degreasing and degreasing and "Fostatizante" (the latter on rail 76x38mm).

I did not find the translation for "fosfatizante" (composition: inorganic acids, moist, surfactant and a corrosion inhibitor - Corrosive)

All this, since the weldingr passing through painting and completion of the project is new to me. The guidance from you is essential. :o

An application of primer and one or two of paint? :confused:

Gerald D Sat 18 October 2008 07:01

Phosphate coating is good.

For your own experience, why not test some samples? Use pieces of scrap steel and paint them with the process of your choice. When everything is finished, see if you can chip or scrape the paint off. It should not be possible to remove the paint except by grinding, burning or chemicals.

The paint is very important where we attach the gear racks - because they use the paint to hold them to the MM.

gmessler Sat 18 October 2008 08:33

I thought about using a phosphate solution but the directions involved rinsing the parts with water after wetting them down with the solution. Couldn't get my mind past pouring water on a fresh clean sandblasted surface.:confused:

Applied the phosphate and washed with water.

This is the correct color?

Gerald D Sat 18 October 2008 11:39

I don't use phosphating so I don't know the colour connected with it. To me it looks like there has been some water rust and that is good - there is no grease on there. I would put on the paint now.

Primer

:eek: I have to train more ;)

gmessler Sat 18 October 2008 20:36

Hi Yuri,

Real interesting color. It also looks like you are working in a real cramped space. I thought it was hard to work in my small garage. It must be real tough for you.
:)

Gerald D Sat 18 October 2008 21:37

Yuri, you should not be doing spray painting inside a room like that! Is it not possible for you to go and do it outside somewhere?

The mess is only one of the problems. Normally the final paint makes a much bigger mess than the primer. That paint gets in everywhere and you will not be able to clean it all away.

The biggest danger is your health. You have shown a mask with filters in a picture - I hope that you are wearing it!

But, also be careful of EXPLOSION! That concentration of paint in the air will only need a small spark and then suddenly you will have a much bigger room . . . . :eek:

If you cannot move it outside, the best option is to paint by brush - not by spray.

gmessler Sat 18 October 2008 21:48

gazebo's work well......right J.R.?:D

J.R. Hatcher Sun 19 October 2008 05:54

Several years ago my brother repainted cars. We learned from the local authority that if you paint outside there are no restrictions. No problem with buildup of fumes, and even over-spray is kept to a minimum. We still wear a respirator. It takes about 20 min to setup my cover (gazebo), and it makes everything so much easier. Greg you are sooooo right the gazebo works really good.
