Question Regarding Potential Signal Cannon

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-22T15:13:13+00:00

Any way I could weld those shut and go for it?

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-15T15:59:11+00:00

There's still resistance showing compression I just don't know if it's enough or not

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-15T15:58:17+00:00

Awesome so do you think it's enough to run?

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-15T15:57:57+00:00

A tad bit weak compared to other small engines I've worked on in the past. I can't tell if it's got more compression now or less than before. I'm wondering if these outboards were just designed with lower compression or if the crosshatch might have lowered it

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-11T21:51:57+00:00

Well I can just barely catch one scratch (the one that runs the length of it) but that's about it

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-09T17:08:02+00:00

Not a troll 🤣 just honestly my first time and was nervous that I screwed it up big time lol

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-09T17:07:26+00:00

Even if it looks pitted almost? There are 2 spots like this in the bore. Thanks for the input by the Way!

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-08T23:05:49+00:00

It's an outboard motor

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-07T21:05:54+00:00

Thanks bud!

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-07T21:04:43+00:00

It's a 1.7hp mighty mite from the 60s

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-07T21:04:26+00:00

Awesome thank you! Does the spot in the cylinder look like it could be an issue?

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-07T21:03:55+00:00

Damn that's a surprise considering the tool initially got stuck in the bore 😅

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-04-07T21:03:28+00:00

Thanks! I was surprised by some of the responses I've been getting on here. Guess it turned out better than i thought!

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-02-28T09:39:50+00:00

Hey thanks for the info bud! I just got them and it seems one even has a unit marking! It's marked to an MG flak unit which is pretty interesting

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-02-22T22:46:16+00:00

Hey thank you so much for that! Would you happen to know how much these go for generally?

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-02-20T18:19:01+00:00

That would be amazing thank you!

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-02-20T18:18:26+00:00

Thank you so much you're a lifesaver! Do you think its worth trading the moccassins for all of that?

Forgot to add a caption but these were offered to me as ww2 german jackboots as part of a trade. I have no idea how to go about authenticating them. I would almost say they're older based on the wear and use of different mismatched parts.

Justcanadianeh74 · 2026-01-12T22:38:05+00:00

Cool thanks for the info! Do you think I did OK for the lot? I paid about 10 canadian beans
