For All, I have obtained all the parts needed to make a cheap stick weldernator. However, my 2 HP motor turns CCW and the alternator is to turn CW. Any...
Hi Lance Can you weld up a frame so that the alternator can be turned 180 degrees. I have done this on the MM when a HF motor turned the wrong way and could...
could you put the motor on the opposite side of the alt - like this? MOTOR-| ... From: multimachine@yahoogroups.com [mailto:multimachine@yahoogroups.com] On ...
He got the "almost free" Cole drill project going again and now is building an Weldernator. Lance has the "stick to it" spirit that gets a project going. Our...
Hi, Lance. I have a couple of thoughts -- easiest is to just operate the alternator backwards. Electrically, it will operate either direction just as well,...
The alternator doesn't care which way it spins as long as it doesn't overheat. Some fans on the front pulley flow cooling air more effectively in one...
Would the Gingery books qualify as open source? He has plans for brakes and benders available. I've also seen them on-line.. I may have the bookmarks. I also...
I wish they were! I was hoping to find plans that either the British Govt. or the UN published in the 50's and 60's because I know they wouldn't sue me. Pat...
... Hi Lance, NO ,the Gingery books are not qualified as open source. Of course you can do a shortcut, to any web page, but you can't show in a web page their...
dfm/ Back in about 1953 an uncle answered my querie on how to reverse a 110/120V. 1725 rpm motor by saying to just move the wires around and see if it buzzes...
... I think I must be a little confused here. If all you're doing is trying to be able to switch polarity from DC Pos to DC Reverse, why not just stop by Home...
Hi, ... I seriously doubt it; as an example the lathe book is dated 1980 while the first rumblings of the GPL started around 1985 or so, and Creative Commons...
... I personally wouldn't simply use that as the criteria--I mean things could satisfy the spirit of open source even if created before the GPL. Having never...

I posted the drawing in my folder of a cobbled press that should make a good drill frame or arbor press. A sissor jack could be used in place of the hydraulic....
... Pat, In your above statement, you suggested that a long internal thread be cut to make a 'Cole' drill. My idea with the 'C' clamp version has the force on...
Gene, I really like your idea of applying pressure from the bottom. What I really want is dozens (hundreds maybe) of unusual, simple ways to drill holes. Many...
Why wouldn't you just flip the alternator end to end? Instead of the pulleys facing the same direction, have them face the opposite direction. (On second...
Lance built us a crate wood model that really works, Gene sent us a design for a great shop drill, one more design will really round out the project. We need...
