A friend's widow is trying to decide what to do with his Alladin's cave of
engineering equipment and machinery. John was a perfectionist to the point
of OCD and everything had to be perfect, restored to original condition if
not already in it and he made lists of things he didn't have just to fill in
the gaps ...

to help
me out.
I'm working on a website where the user enters data in a simple order

Round Connector
Wed, 18 Nov 2009 05:31:29 -0800 (PST)
Suggestions time.
I'm after a metal bodied round connector to handle 12 volts. Needs to
be 4-6 poles and ideally have a panel mounted socket with the flying
lead mounted plug having a screwed ring to fix the connection.
Looking around the workshop a 6 pole version of what Heidenhain use to
connect scales would ...

Engineering Mathematics
Tue, 17 Nov 2009 09:53:38 -0000
Although we live in an age of calculators and computers, some
mathematical background is desirable for the model engineer,
perhaps even if only Pythagoras' Theorem and understanding
Sines (for setting up a Sine bar).
Even so, despite that there is great criticism of the decline in the
standards of mathematics t ...

OT: sealing a glass vase.
Sun, 15 Nov 2009 10:12:25 +0000
My wife "discovered" a rather nice cut-glass flower vase that she had
put in a safe place and forgot about. It turns out that it was saved
away because it has a barely visible crack that allows water to, very
gradually, seep through over time.
Anyway, now she has noticed how attractive it is, she wants to use i ...

Meccano - Trix?
Sat, 14 Nov 2009 12:51:35 -0600
I've just read the thread on Meccano and just wonder if there is anyone
out there who preferred Trix?
I still have mine somewhere.
I had friends with Meccano but always thought Trix more versatile. More
holes per girder. ;-)
Sadly Meccano and Trix were not compatible. I lusted after meccano
universal joints. I bo ...

Meccano
Fri, 13 Nov 2009 19:29:49 -0000
Spent so long sorting it out (made up from sets 40, 50 & 60 years old)
that at the end, I'd lost all inspiration for the prototyping that I'd set
out
to do (Travelling Post Office mail bag pickup)
A pity that the rubber tyres from even 40 years ago have hardened
and /or perished.
Some of the bits that I'd a ...

Milling thin materials
Fri, 13 Nov 2009 14:08:39 -0000
In a separate thread, Turning Small Diameters, I asked about the
capabilities and characteristics of lathes for small scale (2mm railway)
model making, and received excellent guidance. At the end of that thread the
topic got on to milling machines, and as it was already quite large, I have
started a new one to ...
