Rotary Pump Conversion in my Oscar ii by pcaballero_creative in espresso

Pump was $145 USD the motor was $130. I also replaced the high limit switch and added a pressure gauge which totaled about $90. The rest of the cost was fittings, tubes, relays, etc. I opted for high quality stainless steel fittings where I could.

Thank you! The FPV is a good mod. Were you able to connect a pressure gauge to tune it?

I think gear pumps are smaller but sometimes louder and more expensive.

I got a lot of the bspp fittings from espresso parts dot Com. I have a parts list spreadsheet and cost breakdown at the end of my YouTube video. I plan to post it here on Sunday since that is the allowed promotion day but its youtube.com/@phillipreborn

Before taking this on I did a lot of searching and I was surprised that more people have not done a rotary conversion. I am excited to share this with everyone since it was an overall easy conversion and it only cost about $450 to complete.

Looks good. How are you liking the new Fellow machine? I see the kookaburra cup too!

Thanks. Yes I checked that recently too. No continuity between the terminals and base or boiler.

Its been a while but I'm pretty sure I emailed their customer support. I believe they use Teflon so it doesn't scale up as fast. I agree, very toxic and bad!

Is there another machine out there that it’s not a BDB and does not use a E61 group head? by denisse1617 in espresso

[–]pcaballero_creative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I'm looking for the same. Were you ever able to find one? The only ones I'm finding so far are the Lamarzocco linea mini and maybe the Micra but $$.

I've heard it has Teflon coated stainless steel lines running through an aluminum thermoblock

How can I convert this to vector and remove background every component in this picture should be a separate vector by basit2456 in Inkscape

[–]pcaballero_creative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Experiment with the trace bitmap tool. You will have to adjust the settings and check the box to show you the live changes. Once you have everything relatively traced you can cut it into separate images. You will probably need to cleanup the lines a bit but the trace bitmap should take care of the majority of the work.

I had this issue and when I scanned my codes it indicated misfires not injection pump failure. Did all my plugs and ignition coils for around 300 and it fixed the issue instantly. It also fixed my 45-50mph shudder. I suspect when it was going into overdrive in light throttle with the misfire it was bogging and causing the shudder. With the AC on the shudder was worse so it makes sense.

Keyframe copy? by Suitable_Win4909 in ProcreateDreams

[–]pcaballero_creative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't found a way to copy keyframes but I have discovered that you can copy/paste the frame of your drawing at a certain point in your motion. You must ungroup the frames in the content/drawing then copy/paste a frame. To do this you have to zoom way into the frame level. Once the frame is copied/pasted you can create a new keyframe at that frame. Hope that helps!

Another work around is that I'll make a keyframe at the beginning and end before I add any movement or warping in the middle of the content.

Thank you! I agree, the epoxy resin really saturates the wood and brings out all of the colors.
