The other advantage of a purpose-built unit is that it will have a close-fitting lid with a thermal catch- the idea is that if the lid's propped open and the solvent catches fire, the thermal catch w

Yea, I'm totally envious. A paint booth would be nice too. The book "How to Set Up Your Motorcycle Workshop" (C.G. Masi, Whitehorse Press 1996) would be useful. It's got a lot of info about lighting

Well, that's different for different people- all my stuff is metric and I work on bikes more than cars, so it's 8x1, 10x1, 10x1.25, 12x1.25 which get the most use. If you get the cheap HF set as some

Seems like you could just tee them into the distribution lines. If you run only one compressor, the other's tank would just act like extra air lines or an 'air pig' (tank with no compressor) plumbed

It's unlikely that both compressors will have the same cut-in/out points. So, say that compressor A is set up for cut-in at 110 and out at 140, and compressor B is set up for cut-in at 100 and out at

You should use a 'soft' wire which does not work-harden. Usually stainless steel wire is used. Stainless safety wire comes in three common diameters- .023, .032 and .040 (or is it .042?). I prefer th

If the crank is a pressed-together type, you might be able to get a crank-builder to replace the end that's broken. That might be cheaper than replacing the crank. You will still have to split the ca

If that doesn't work, try slitting the nut with a cut-off wheel in a dremel tool. Even if you don't slice all the way throught the nut, cutting most of the way through will loosen it up. -- Eric Murr
