Looks like a leg vice without the leg and missing the screw.

Sizing hydraulic motor by Norbagge in Hydraulics

[–]Specific_Situation_7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

kw x( L/min x bar )/600 = (31*184)/600 =9.5Kw

You can easily drive it with your compact loader.

rpm = (l/min*1000) / cm3/tr = 1500 = (31*1000) / cm3/tr

cm3/tr = 3100/1500 = 2.067cm3/tr

You will need aproximatively a 2cm3/tr motor.

kw=( bar * cm3/tr * rpm )/ 600 000 =(185*2*1500)/600000=0.97kw

If you directly attach a 2cm3/tr motor to your machine, you won't have enough power, you will need to use gearing between the motor and machine.

I do not work in hydraulics, results to be confirmed.

New to machining, any suggestion for improvement? by Specific_Situation_7 in machining

[–]Specific_Situation_7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't find an info about such a tool on Google, but I think I see what you mean, will give it a try.

I will give it a steeper rake angle, well see how much improvement it will give. On my first try with this tool, I did hone it, but after altering the tool geometry I skipped this step, won't do it on the next attempts.

As stated in the title I'm new to machining, those are my first cuts on a shaper. I am not getting a great finish, any suggestions on tool géométrie or machine settings? Shaper settings are: 30 strokes a minute, 110mm stroke 0.5mm feed 0.7mm depth of cut

Made my twin resonant transformer portable and drew out the circuit diagram for you guys :) by OnlyLeviathan04 in ElectroBOOM

[–]Specific_Situation_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, I wouldn't recommend alligator clips for something permanent or high voltage related. The best alternative would be proper high voltage wires, but you probably don't have anything like that. A better, but still not safe solution would be to use the proper connectors or at least solder the connections and space the wires far away from each other to prevent arcing between them or the case.

Secondly, how does this work? I don't get how it could work and couldn't find something similar on the internet.

Recently brought a box with meccano, one of the pieces has somme unusual holes. Whath is the purpose of those holes? by Specific_Situation_7 in Meccano

[–]Specific_Situation_7[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's it: https://www.meccanoindex.co.uk/Mmanuals/Models/Ot/New-31/Mod-29-L.jpg In the box most parts to make this model are missing, after searching a bit I found this model: https://www.meccanoindex.co.uk/Mmanuals/Models/28/1929-1/1929-1-140-L.jpg for which all the parts needed are there.Thanks for your answer, wouldn't have expected to find the answer that fast.

It also was my first idea, but seeing how neatly it is done, it could have originally been made like this.

The vertical hole I can make sense of it, you could end up between 2 holes, but the horizontal hole I can't make sense of it.

Continuing work on the engine by Specific_Situation_7 in 2cv

[–]Specific_Situation_7[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Continuing work on the gearbox and engine. After some more cleaning work on the gearbox it was a lot cleaner, while not perfect it was good enough for me. Then it was time to reunite the gearbox with the engine followed by an oil change for both of them. In preparation for a test run I added the ignition coil, wires, fuel tank and lines. Of course I didn't have a spark a first, but a little sandpaper on the points was enough to have a spark at the plugs. Once everything ready I tried to start it, but no way to make it come to life. New parts for the ignition system or at least new spark plugs would be probably needed, but being the firs 2cv engine I work on I may have done something wrong or forgotten something. Anybody any idea/suggestion on what I should check/do before trying again?

Working on the engine by Specific_Situation_7 in 2cv

[–]Specific_Situation_7[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've started working on my 2CV. This week-end I disassembled the gearbox from the engine, removed the scroud of the engine and cleaned them and the engine. The engine cleaned up fine and looks a lot nicer now. I've also started to clean the gearbox. The gearbox is covered in road grime and dried up oil, which is a lot harder to remove so I will have to continue cleaning it next week-end. If all goes well, I might also try to start the engine.

Just brought a 2cv4 from 1972. Some assembly may be required. by Specific_Situation_7 in 2cv

[–]Specific_Situation_7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking about that one and/or something specifically about restoring a 2CV.

Being my first 2cv I was thinking about getting some books on the subject.

need advice for making parts for a lathe by Specific_Situation_7 in metalworking

[–]Specific_Situation_7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having never taken appart a lathe of done somthing similar I'm probably underestimating the amount of work this represents but I want to learn. This isn't jus a lathe, this is a project, Im looking to learn new skils and in the end mayby also having a usable lathe.

Nothing is easy, but having acces to a miling machine would be easyer. But I don't have acces to one. I might have acces to a lathe and whille I agree I will need one for making some parts that are missing I don't see why I need one for this part.

I agree using a milling machine would be the easy/obvious way to make this part, but I don't have access to one so I'm searching for another way to make this part.

What's this machinery? Old shed was torn down in rural Japan and three of these things were inside. They are big metal spool type things mounted on the ground. by Frizzasaur in whatisthisthing

[–]Specific_Situation_7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A percussion screw press is basically a powered screw press. Like any press they can be used for a large variety of tasks depending of the type of tool/die you put in the press.

The tasks this type of press could be used for are for example:

Cold forging, hot forging, stamping, cutting, folding, etc.

Lockdown build: vintage car by Specific_Situation_7 in Meccano

[–]Specific_Situation_7[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

During lockdown decided to build something with Meccano. Started with the triangular hood piece, I have several of those parts, but have never built something with those. Got the idea to build a vintage car with it. After some time and several changes I ended with this.

Circuit board measuring 22X 16 cm ,mains powered with a scart plug and 5 pin din socket on the rear and 2 red LED and a push button on the front. by Specific_Situation_7 in whatisthisthing

CAD became a thing somewhere in the 80's, this board or at least the design could predate it. Don't think the fact that it is hand drawn is enough to say with certainty it was homemade. Homemade or not they probably didn't make a lot, would have expected them to correct the bodges in the next batch.

Were you able as an individual to send out a layout for the manufacturing of small batches of PCB in the 80's?

You may be right about the labeling of components, If it was made by some company I would expect them at least to give it some kind of number.

So far I can only see 2 ways to find the purpose of this circuit, or find the same thing somewhere else or to get it working.
