If it gets annoying, I'll have some words with it.  The drain will be directed into the urinal which is right next to the compressor.  Might be worth the price of admission when it goes off while someone's peein!
Or video it and post to MWF Smiley-dancenana

Got the hardening compound I need to harden the knurl holders and the tool post mount. And I got the 20 TPI knurls.

I'm not familiar with that brand.  Only Casenite, cynaide bath, or in a furnace in a diamond box.  Please let us know how well, or not, it works.

Those knurls will definitely need chamfering! Did you get some SS pouches for the case hardening or are you going to bend up a box?

No SS pouches yet. I won't be attempting the case hardening until the weather warms up a bit.

A couple of items showed up today that's metalworking related. Lately most stuff haven't been.

First up is an endmill sharpener from Travers mady by Phase II.

Found a lead hammer mold on ebay, 3lb, and of course a bit of lead is needed. The chunk to the left of the mold is about 4.5 lbs, and the other pile is just over 15 lbs (it's 16 ingots).

Another view of the ingots

That's it for now.

Nice supply. I'll refrain from posting the electronics I've been buying - it's 99% Tek and I don't know if I'm done buying, but I think I better stop! I still have a half dozen pieces of equipment to fix, most awaiting parts and one I still can't lift (lifting restriction). Once I can lift that I can put the parts in that I already have and move it outta the way.
