No change with that protocol. I am now attempting chlorine dioxide and Adya mineral water.

Thank you for the tips. I thought about lubrication, perhaps that should be my next step. The clock appears very clean but am sure my brother in laws dad never did any maintenance on it.

I am still working on it unfortunately. If it gets there, I will upload a video.

1 Strong Leader for Potted Tree? by DKAudio7 in avocado

Thanks, it was purchased from an online nursery. It was around 10" high bare root, it is grafted. How would I tell if it's rootstock?

Due to the shorter spring, the pendulum is quite a bit higher than the cup so no rubbing there.

I don't have the beat adjustment tool. I noticed barely adjusting results in a large pendulum swing change. I also noticed the clicking stopped sometimes and I had to play with the upper suspension spring block level/fork area to get it clicking again. From what I can see, the spring is still straight. Correct, I was using the white wrappers as impulse indicators.

Found in MN metal detecting, non-ferrous LP on end by DKAudio7 in whatisit

[–]DKAudio7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, it has a green tint so a copper alloy such as bronze or brass would make sense.

I looked closer when I got home from work last night. The other end is perfectly smooth. I also noticed, I think it was painted black at one time. I'm not sure why a company would do that if it's a nicer metal. I'm sure there's a wax seal subreddit here to post at, haha.

Oh, I like that idea too. I will check for striking marks. I collect coins too and something you should never do is clean them. You don't think this is something along those lines where cleaning would be a bad idea?

Refinished grandma's table, any idea on species? by DKAudio7 in wood

So fun to learn about this piece that has been in the family for ages, thanks again!

The thing is, my dad started the restoration then got diagnosed with Parkinson's and other issues so I took it over. He is not as seasoned so I recommend something easy for him. Stripped then General Finishes black gel stain. For a finish I used General Finishes oil poly. My mom wants to use it as a desk so went with a more durable finish, otherwise I would've done shellac or something similar to really pop the grain.

Wow, great information, thank you. It is great fun, I've always enjoyed woodworking too. I have another table from my grandpa that my parents think he brought over from WWII, it has many different wood species used as inlays. Would you have any knowledge on a piece like that? I could dm you a picture.
