Though I planned to make a mobile stand and water filter first, I just couldn't wait to try my HF cabinet. It IS a religious experience to have a blast cabinet !! I bought HF-s genuine Chinese imitat

The package says #8 Glass Beads. Under a magnifying glass, there are certainly some beads in there, and lots of fines - of course, I happen to have grabbed a HF magniflying glass too. I'd guess it's

No hot shower for days pales in comparison to a discovering leak in a water heater in a house built on a slab, and with hardwood floors. Not that I'd have any experience with that...... Karl ________

My MGTC's rear axle housing is a partially riveted assembly. A few rivets were leaking when I took it apart, and now that it's stripped and mostly clean, I have a good chance to seal all of the rivet

I worry about cyanoacrylates (crazy glue) as being too brittle - are some grades more flexible ? Someone on the MG T-Series list suggested green Loctite 290 - I think that's the one for already-assem
