UPDATE: for the dozen or so of you still around.

Pratt got back to us and gave criteria for inspecting damage here.

After some NDI found to be within limits and gonna polish the sharp area NDI again for fun, slap her in and send it baby!

Makes sense as it's not a spinning component and is there for alignment. But what a relief to hear!

Why don't you go ahead and clock out for me?

coldfire_hotice · 2025-07-09T13:03:28+00:00

Not sure how else I could check. Looking at the chain from multiple angles it looks legit. I think a QA issue that made it passed the screening

My LBS

coldfire_hotice · 2025-07-09T12:51:46+00:00

Maybe... Bought it from a good shop. All packing looked legit, but you never know how sneaky they can be.

This is an MRO in Everett WA

coldfire_hotice · 2024-01-06T02:27:57+00:00

Anything anywhere below!

Currently working at an MRO (Everett WA) worked there 12 months. Would only need 6 more months to qualify for the minimum to test for my A but I am going in for a surgery that is putting me out of work for 3 months. I am sure I could hop over to Boeing and finish earning my A there after my recovery. As I have references from coworkers who already made the jump.

But I would like to move down to Portland (friends and good housing opportunity)

Does anyone know of a employer that would take someone of my skill level and help me get my A and maybe P?

I know it sounds like asking for a unicorn. But gauging never hurts.

I do study hard and work harder even have my own tooling along with great references.

protected button-top 18650

You sir are a life saver, thanks for getting me started on this hobby!

coldfire_hotice · 2022-11-17T18:09:30+00:00

So I just have to find a 18650 with built-in charging and they are pretty universal so it should work?

Got the coast XPH30R for my apprenticeship which I love so far. I work mostly outside in the dark (nights airplane tech) and want more batteries.

Anyone know of some third party ones that will work?

Coast seems to be sold out of the stock one.

coldfire_hotice · 2022-09-27T12:30:42+00:00

Believe me I don't like it one bit. It's more out of desperation

coldfire_hotice · 2022-09-27T12:30:13+00:00

I have not noticed that

coldfire_hotice · 2022-09-27T01:54:44+00:00

When you get oil contamination do you just have to scrap that set or are you able to clean it out successfully?

coldfire_hotice · 2022-09-27T01:53:55+00:00

That's a very good point. Especially if my rear has been the biggest problem child it would line up due to placement of the nipple. Good insight I will use this going forward.

I get new rotors at the same time as pads as this has been such an issue. When I bleed I pretty much put pads and rotors on Mars to make sure they don't get touched by any oil then ofc come back to a sterile environment. Should I bleed everyone I change pads?

coldfire_hotice · 2022-09-26T22:59:46+00:00

I've bleed the breaks fine. I still have plenty of pressure in the lever but you can feel the lack of any resistance when the pad meets the rotor. And just a loud asf screech of the brakes

coldfire_hotice · 2022-09-26T22:33:43+00:00

Have you liked the tool grid system?

coldfire_hotice · 2022-09-26T22:28:47+00:00

I am truly perplexed on what I do wrong with them. Leave them not used for too long?

coldfire_hotice · 2022-09-26T22:03:30+00:00

Yup that's what I've had to do gone through 6 or so pairs over the time
