Just did the same on my bandsaw, but used a Variac (Auto transformer), and a rectifier to be able to vary the speed. Those treadmills are a good...
Try the local rubber supplies (U.E.S.), they have branches in most states. They have the black PVC? type, it hangs in there well.
The Chrysler Royal was made here from a bunch of leftover U.S. Dodge, Desoto and Plymouth bits. My first car when I was 16! 313 V8, push-button...
I find that the easiest way to find something that you have squirreled away somewhere in the bowels of the workshop, is to go out and buy a new...
I have used the aluminum foil trick, but used Coke (the black one) and it took the rust off and left a dull grey coating. This, and oil stain...
Space is the killer. I have to get rid of stuff, to make room for new stuff. But it doesn't always work like that, as I can usually replace the...
