  Lighting for a basement workshop
Posted by: Estrogen Hostage - 12-15-2015, 11:00 AM - Forum: Home Improvement - Replies (3)

I have fluorescent lights surface mounted on my 8' ceiling, and have never managed to hit them with a board. And I'm the type of person that hits things with boards. I think that 4' LED fixtures could probably take a hit pretty well. I keep looking for a reason to swap the current ones out, maybe when the ballasts go.

Check here starting at page 23:
Liftmaster Manual

Looks like you need to physically change the DIP switches on the remote and then have the motor/receiver "learn" it.

  Painting Christmas ornaments?
Posted by: Bill Mains - 12-15-2015, 09:52 AM - Forum: Woodturning - Replies (5)

Bill

I have not made an ornament yet but I am thinking you need to burn first and then seal it which is want I do. Then I add dyes or other colorants. That way the color will not go where I do not want it.

I am very sure there are other ways tho.

I am looking forward to seeing what you make buddy.

  Old Arn Drill Press
Posted by: nodima - 12-15-2015, 07:22 AM - Forum: Woodworking Power Tools - Replies (5)

Was casually looking for a drill press when one appeared locally. Older Delta, which according to serial number dates to 1958 or so. Bench top model, seemed to work pretty well, outside of needing a new belt. Stopped by Woodcraft last night, and picked up a link belt. Installed and fired it up, whhhhiiiiirrrrrrrrrrr. Nice n quiet.

I think it is a runner, but for kicks I may go ahead and pull it apart and do a full restoration this winter.

Since I know y'all want pics, here ya go.

Head of unit:


Side View:


Base - a bit of rust on underside, but just patina here


Serial plate


Switch - anyone know about these:


There are a couple of things missing and/or replaced, including one of the nuts on the depth adjuster, and the bolt controlling the recoil spring.

Head unit is still frozen to the pipe, but I'll take a run at it with PB Blaster in the coming weeks to free it up.

For $150 I feel like it is a good deal, certainly light years better (and heavier) than what is made today.

What a bunch of sorry people America has become. Soon it will be illegal to eat by yourself because of a choking hazard.

Someone has to get smart or the last 2 generations will be so dumb it will make America a laughing stock around the world.
