10 x 2 is likely less common then 10 x 1.5 so you can probably just order it but it might not be in your stock set of taps. most off the shelf tap and die sets dont include every possibility, just the most common. If its a blind hole then you may want a bottoming tap, if you dont use it...

handy to have a thread pitch guage, otherwise what you can do is lay it alongside another bolt of known pitch and see if it keys in. what Il oftne do is run to my bolt bin and just start trying bolts, If I find a match then I look for a nut to fit or just try to loosely thread a tap in there...

you are not only rude but so full of yourself that you are unable to learn from anyone else. you seldom contribute any valid info at all to the forum, but seem to have mental health issues and try to use the forum for some advertising venue or maybe just to vent your bad attitude. If you...

you are a very insulting and rude man. screw off jerk.

If I had a load of lumber to build a project, porch or whatever. I'd note that some planks are a bit heavier and If they also have no knots , cracks etc, I'd consider that a better plank and may set it aside for some important woodwork project. I feel the heavier and tighter grain is also...

I think if you are replacing cloth without a lot of experience there are lots of videos out there so I'd watch a few, or even as many as you can tolerate, and take some tips from each.. some cloths have a lot more stretch than others do. the way he gathers the cloth for the side pockets ...

yes acetone.

I just do manual machining, it's way less productive than one can crank out with CNC, thing is that with just a few machines, welder, lathe mill , bandsaw etc, I can go from fixing a machine and finding a broken part to creating a new part, fix the machine , get it up and running in less time...

if this theory that the slate absorbs moisture is correct, then it will just as easily work in reverse.. and dampen the cloth.. I dont believe this theory "holds water" slate tends to split naturally, that's why it was used of roofing. they would have guys up on the mountain splitting...

I think it;s the same chair, I have fairly soft wood floors so could definitely see cutting the metal feet off to install rubber feet. the label was a clever way to upsell it, or maybe he just had the label and thought it would look nice and then it was later thought to be made by Brunswick...

I have a friend locally who was showing some results of having CNC lettering done by a local machine shop in aluminum.. the application required a very accurate surface finish.. the quality was very good. I always find that destroying beautiful old machines like that is a bit...

noticed the name Whittle, would you happen to be related to Frank whittle , inventor of the Jet engine. English?

that second pool chair, I can;t ell if it is antique or repro but it seems to reflect the "Stickley" style, its closely related to craftsman style or if you know about the furniture that is inspired by the arts and crafts movement , it is much like that. That type of furniture is now...

most decent players will pick their shotline when standing, often taking a moment to look at the OB from the perspective of it being directly in front of the pocket.. Then focus upon the OB, then when they go down if they are able to not loose eye contact with the shotline , this might be...

the spot putty solves the issue of the bondo hardening up quickly.. You can keep squeezing out just a little.. with no need to muck with catalyst.. Then you don't need to run like a bunny to get it all down within the working time you have..

the script might be wrong for the Brunswick Balke Collender ball rack.. the Brunswick Balke Collender sales literature from around 1915 or so shows one, it has several rows and a way to tip them all to an unlevel position and then they all drop down to the next level and run back and forth...

I dont see any advantage in increasing the slippage between the slate and cloth so would not apply a sealer. i would give it a good wash and maybe run over the whole top with a 6" putty knife just to be sure there isn't a piece of gunk protruding. on mine I used the durhams hard rock putty...

you can order that label here: https://www.phonodecal.com/shop/phonograph-decals/brunswick lots more there too: https://www.phonodecal.com/shop/phonograph-decals I have an old BBC, I keep thinking of making a ball rack or scoreboard or cue rack to go with it.. old ones do come up, but are...

Brunswick didn't just make pool tables. Brunswick Balke Collender made a lot of fancy bars for drinking establishments. . I restored an early phono in a cabinet made by brunswick, they were into bowling equipment too.

Yes I got that, you are trying to keep the cue as low as you can. often that is necessary.. do you think accuracy is affected by the use of either, ( open brige vs rail bridge) in instances where there is a choice? In that particular shot it is a break, so you are trying to control the...
