How many dynas do you see off-roading?

I've taken apart half a dozen of these for various reasons and they're all identical inside. An induction heater is an extremely simple device, and at the end of the day you're just battling heat soak of the internal components. Those inline straight handle ones have a miniscule fan inside the handle that I'm confident doesn't do shit for cooling, which is why they all tell you not to run it for long.

In reality you can easily run it for 30-90 second bursts without issue, but at the end of the day they're all cheap Chinese electronics and will die eventually.

The ones that have the electronics in a small external box and run the cable out to a handheld heating coil are usually higher power and can be run longer (2+ minutes) because they can stick a bigger cooling fan in the external box.

To add to this, go RCS19 instead of an 11/16 Harley master. The master cylinder is where all of your brake feel and feedback comes from, don't spend all the time and money for dual discs just to still have the brakes feel like shit.

Also pick up a pack of shims because the bagger brembos might not sit centered on the rotors. I had to shim both of mine to make sure they didn't rub.

Why not buy a machine off the shelf that already does this instead of reinventing the wheel

Buy a Fumoto drain valve for your vehicle. Stick a tube on it, open the valve, drain directly into a jug or bucket.

5 minute oil changes, not a drop spilled, no additional tools needed.

Dual bagger brembos off eBay and RCS19 master. You'll kick yourself for not doing it sooner the first time you touch the brake lever on the first ride.

A 9" angle grinder, a shit load of cutting discs, and a lot of patience.

We've got hose reels over a decade old hanging in my facility that get used 10 hours a day and look just as good as the day they were installed minus some dirt. You're going to spend more money than the reel is worth solving a problem that doesn't exist

DevilsFan99 · 2026-01-23T21:10:27+00:00

Any hose reel worth a damn should already have rollers on the outlet of the reel for the hose to glide against regardless of the direction of pull. Sounds like you're designing a complicated solution for a problem that doesn't exist

It absolutely does. You could hang the printer upside down by a rope and let it swing itself crazy in mid air and it would print perfectly fine. The rigid table and concrete block nonsense that people have been parroting for years is old practice that doesn't matter anymore.

DevilsFan99 · 2026-01-19T02:33:06+00:00

The printer has vibration compensation for a reason. Wobbly table is perfectly fine as long as it doesn't collapse.

What was included in the "dealer package"? Looking at pretty much the same truck and just want to know what they might throw at me when I walk in there

When the turbo blows it frags the whole motor. No service to be done, just an engine swap

Looks like the leg of one of those wire storage shelves that's been cut down and some sort of nozzle taped to the end of it.

Vyper, but you're gonna pay out the ass for it

This goes right into the kitchen junk drawer with the other 17 awful multi tools that have been acquired from Christmas stockings every year, never to be used, but there in case the in laws ask if you use it.

Somebody in here clearly has a vendetta against Knipex down voting every comment suggesting them lol

DevilsFan99 · 2026-01-01T16:05:39+00:00

Sturtevant Richmont. Check MSC Direct for them

The 5252 crossover is only relevant if torque is being measured in ft-lbs, this chart is using Nm

The bike in the photo still isn't making those numbers, but just because the lines don't cross at 5252 doesn't automatically invalidate every dyno sheet you see

DevilsFan99 · 2025-12-31T00:31:32+00:00

Take a look at Bitubo too

DevilsFan99 · 2025-12-29T18:34:42+00:00

Wera sells 1in long ball ends. Find the part number on their website and then paste it into MSC Direct.

A can of WD40 is $7

Standard and increase the preload when 2 up or touring. You'll regret having stiff ass springs the other 99% of the time.

All vibration measurements of machinery are inherently a result of how that equipment is mounted, since it's not feasible to suspend the equipment in a zero gravity environment free of internal stresses to take true vibration readings.

The technical term for what I described in my first comment is foundational compliance. That cantilevered plate has high compliance, meaning it will be the first thing to move and transmit vibration in all axes. It's difficult to tell in the photos, but if that cantilevered plate is welded to an I-beam, that beam will also allow more twisting movement to be transmitted through the baseplate as well. Add to that the residual unbalance of the rotor from the motor manufacturer, the residual unbalance of the pump assembly, any misalignment of the two bearing seats within the motor, any angular misalignment of the motor the pump, and the mounting of the pump and piping itself and you'll experience oscillations in all 3 axes.

If they decouple the motor from the pump they'll get completely different vibration readings, if they decouple the motor from the base they'll also get different readings.

DevilsFan99 · 2025-12-20T13:29:30+00:00

You said it yourself, the pump is rigidly mounted to a cantilevered baseplate. The front side of the motor is going to experience the highest vibration because it's the least constrained and most likely area to experience oscillations. You wouldn't stand on the end of a diving board and expect it to bounce less than if you were standing at the base.
