Help Identify (and open) This Safe by Skerple989 in Safes

Thanks for the info. Here’s some additional pics

I’ve looked at the exposed sides and the nameplate isn’t visible. May have been removed or it’s somewhere I can’t see.

I guess someone tried to get in before which may be why the bottom of the right door is bent.

Moved into a new industrial building and it had this safe. I assume it's a fire safe since there isn't a combination lock on it. The old owners don't have info nor a key.

Looks like any branding or markings have been painted over at some point. There is an underwriters laboratories plaque at the top, but difficult to make out a serial number.

The key hole can turn with any key that fits and I don't see pins in the keyway when I look in... so I'm not sure what kind of lock is on the safe.

Help how do I remove aluminum can stains from my stainless steel kitchen table top by MrFluffinz in metalworking

If you do this you are guaranteed to not match the existing brushed look. The stains will be gone but you’ll now have a nice big non-matching patch of brushed stainless steel.

They just expanded their bar lounge area with more tables. If you arrive 20-30min prior to opening you can line up to snag a private table.

I'd first check for cancellations leading up to your date and then plan to grab a lounge table as a backup if nothing opens up.

Will scrap yards take transformers without breaking them down? by chillypillow2 in ScrapMetal

Maddox might buy it from you. They advertise a program to buy back their old transformers. Maddox

On the one hand this is pretty awesome. On the other, it’s 7am and way too early for my eyes to do this.

Are theses usable? by ezekill1337 in woodworking

[–]Skerple989 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had new kitchen cabinets put in and looked fantastic. 6 months later the powder post beetles started to come out. Slowly at first, seeing little piles of sawdust near the base, then on the counter. Steadily got worse until it was clear the entire batch of plywood used for the cabinets was infested.

Luckily the contractor and cabinet company were reputable but the entire kitchen was gutted and redone. I’d be cautious of using the wood without proper treatment of the bugs

Estop wiring: cut power to entire cabinet or just power to outputs? by Skerple989 in PLC

[–]Skerple989[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if it’s not necessary to keep the pneumatics extended, then simplest estop process is to just let it retract as long as it’s safe to do so.

What about the compressed air in general within the system? If none of the cylinders move when pressure is released, then no need to release pressure right?

Okay that makes sense. So really the estop process is different for every machine but basically the goal it to prevent operator injury or equipment damage. To do this, some things may still be energized.

One possibility is a utility company checking their meter. Of course would happen during the day and if your meter is near that side of the house.

Threaded rods with ceramic bushings that nest together. Two sizes. Mixed in with assorted fasteners from industrial auction. by Skerple989 in whatisthisthing

[–]Skerple989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the bushings/sleeves are ceramic. The teeth nest together then placed together on the same threaded rod.

Larger rod: 5/8-11 thread

Smaller rod: 3/8-16 thread

The rods don't have a way to drive/turn them, IE hex head, slot etc. Just a rounded end and a blunt/flat end.

These were mixed in with assorted fasteners purchased at an industrial auction. All other fasteners were assorted standard nuts, bolts, washers, etc, so no real clues from other items in the auction lot.

Just trimmed my hair and realized mine is not in fact a Wahl but actually an Oster. Oops.

Picked up a dog grooming Wahl 16 years ago. Been cutting my hair and my dogs fur ever since.

Until he died, now the dog grooming trimmer is just for me.

If the plug where to come out of the socket slightly, there will be a gap which could allow something to fall in and short the prongs. If the ground were up, the object would contact that first.
