you have 4 connections backwards (2 on each side) just swap your connection points and all should be good. the bars / turnbuckles are all good. just you have them connected in the wrong holes in the lower lift arms. swaping them around should also tighen up the "sway bar/chain" on each side...

awesome! scraficer teeth like a box blade but on the rear side of the blade. very very cool! just need some bolt on wings, to have rear blade, box blade, and scraficer teeth all in one! form some metal into a J shape, and weld onto each of the outside scraficer teeth you have. drill a couple...

over on www.koiphen.com i learned about self cleaning liner ponds that have bottom drain with air diffuser or a "return" coming up through the center of it and TPRs (tangential point returns). the TPRs, create a whirl pool or vortex action in a round pond. the bottom drain sucks stuff down...

so i have a s10 blazer that is primarily farm vehicle. it was getting near E, and didn't feel like going to town and filling it up, so i grabbed a couple 5 gallon cans and filled it up. needless to say, i wasn't paying attention, and i have 1 can cleary marked "diesel" on it. and ended up...

never would of imagine the idea in my life, very interesting! i would think you would only want to grab a hold of the wheel. so as to allow the front suspension and rest of entire bike, to rotate off the front axle.

*waves a white flag* it finally clicked in me mind. when i started to draw, and just about to open excel sheet to rough calc volume... for total hyd oil volume in A and B diagrams. B = more hyd oil in the cylinder vs A diagram, that has less total volume of hyd oil in it. thanks for...

*hhmmsss* put some spacers (edited the rotatory union) to add another 30 inches. to raise sprayer up off the ground. so tops of crops would not get mowed down by the frame. not sure if i like this idea. i suppose it could be possible. and just remove the spacers when ya change the sprayer out...

have not done a lot. decided to try turning SSTT into a spray rig. 15 foot lengths per section 4 total sections for 60 foot lengths, and then another 60 foot each side booms, for 180 feet wide spray. and then i got myself in trouble... the 60 footer swing outs, when folded up, would tear...

i wanted to see if i could use a simple hydraulic cylinder, that allowed "rotation" of say 350 to 300 degrees, for the track / wheel linkages. the idea seemed simple enough, and then frustation sat in, trying to figure out how to "place seals" that could handle 2000 to 3000 PSI of hydraulic oil...

well hhhhmmmssss..... how do i make a 4 foot long motor, and smallest diameter possible. and have initial start load, at absolutely max torque being able to produce. and not done yet... have that "finite" control of adjustments. of .0001 degree or more of rotation. combine the motor with a set...

would caution use of direct plow blade attached to FEL arms/bucket. without some sort of "trip" (spring on plow, so if it hits something, the spring allows plow blade to fold back, instead of twisting FEL arms) prefer something that i can actually change angle. much like a 3pt hitch rear...

flat coil creation.... been trying to think of ways to actually make it.... i am pretty sure i can not rely on a drill bit or router bit. to drill into end of a pipe to make the coil. slightest dull blade, or imperfection, would most likely damage the coil. and create a bunch of waste. i...

and away i kick the spiral away from me. never felt like completing a spiral band spring, do-hickey, just do not think it would ever pay off, to much trouble trying to predict the band tension long haul, and in that if the 24 valves would be open/closed. spiral pattern, is nice for a spring...

spent a day, trying to deal with a curved path, only to realize, that i was going about the path or rather make that a grove, wrong. hopefully this better spiraled grove, will work out much better. though now i need to figure out how to, create something like a "chain saw" chain. but...

first rough draft. a generic piece of metal say 1/16" thick. 2.75 inch tall. that is coiled up 6 times. (bottom plate .5", teeth height 1", teeth height 1", top plate .5", with .25" teeth meshing together) 1 guide roller. to put the band of sheet metal up against the ports 1 start/end...
