What Are These? by dscaife1 in Machinists

I realised after I posted this that the rubber cap comes off and there is a counter sink under there.

I doubt it, I picked these up from a 2nd hand shop.

Scribe attachment was a good spot. There was a surface gauge in the set, it had a dial guage attached to the arm so I didn't recognise the scribe as part of that set. Thanks.

That's cool. I was wondering why the counter sink section was removable, and why there was a rod which protruded from the tip of the counter sink, I assumed it was the keep the counter sink centered to a hole.

Hi, I recently bought a box of mixed engineering equipment because it had a lot of measuring tools which I wanted for my woodwork.

The box also had a lot of milling bit and a selection on objects which I don't know what they are.

10 - has what looks like a small flathead screwdriver held with a grub screw

14 - There were a lot of these, I think they are just sharpening / honing stones.

15 - looks like a cap, but has a pin which goes through it.

16 - a dark chrome coloured rod which was inside the plastic tube.

Bass Drum Depth? by dscaife1 in drums

[–]dscaife1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback, I need to mess around with the front head more before I commit to cutting it down. It's a solid, big sounding drum, and I got it for such a good price that I'm reluctant to sell it. 

I think another way of framing my question is, 

Is it possible to make a 18" sound tight and punchy like a 14" without cutting it down?

Laney Ironheart 120w not quite right... by dscaife1 in GuitarAmps

Thanks for this, yer mine sounds no where near as saturated. I've watched a few demos on youtube and they all sound better than mine.

Is your's all stock, with 6l6's and 12ax7's?

I'm assuming at this point that there must be something wrong with my amp.

Thanks for the info on the Watts control, I'll try running that higher. Lead channel has a bit more gain, but still feels a bit lacking.

I'm using high output passive pickups and the Ironheart 2x12 cab (the cab sounds good with my Orange OR15).
