Take the armature out and put it in the chuck of a corded drill held in a vice, polish the com with the finest wet&dry you can get your hands on with the com spinning in the drill. For best performance you want the com mirror smooth or you will lose power and wear your new brushes quickly. Big-e

Charlie, Glad you think there may be possibilities. I'm not really up to speed on the technology myself but think with a little research it may be viable. Have a quick look at www.rswww.com and search for 291-1306, this gives a good insight into how it works. I'm just finishing my last shift...

Lets start with #1, how about expanding it to anything motoring related which gives us a much wider scope. I've often wondered about a cheap instant method of heating and cooling a car which can be retro fitted. How about Vortex technology?, produces hot and cold instantly but would have to...

Charlie, Whats your idea then? do we need it or better still can we not live without it!

Not bad, and after 84hrs on nightshift!

Once the building has been finished the temperature can be regulated so that the lid can be fitted with no worry of damage due to low temperatures or is it that the lid needs to be fitted when the still is hot so that whilst in operation the seals will not fail due to expansion? One more...

I would assume that the lid did not fit first thing in the morning due to the huge whiskey (probably in Ireland or US due to the e) Still being outside thus susceptible to the drop in temperature over night which would affect the overall size of the hole the lid was to cover. It may have fitted...

Ive used multi-monti's on thermalite with no problems. They are currnetly stopping my steel shed from blowing away.

Sorry Charlie, been busy earning a crust. I may be getting this completely a.r.s.e about face as this is my 5th 12hr night shift in a row so am getting a bit cloudy, You have a clock timer that you want to run for 12hrs every day from 1pm but the timer will fail if it is running when the day...

Calm down Charlie boy, I am not debating who is more suited to do a specific role, obviously you would not ask someone unqualified to carry out something which is beyond their means. Your original post was asking to define what is an engineer. To be an engineer is different to being say a...

My wife doesnt work and I have no kids so weekdays or weekends doesnt really affect us. 4 day shifts, 4 days off, 4 night shifts, 8 days off constantly rotating means that I get a lot more weekends off than when I wasnt on shift and working overtime, now with the 55% shift premium all my times...

Why not try Stabilising Solution Concentrate ref.103030. Sounds like it may be the stuff you need.

It is often quoted because this is the correct definition of the word. The correct definition of the word Doctor is a person with a medical degree whose job is to treat people who are ill or hurt or a person who has the highest degree from a college or university this is why you do not get...

I hate to sound cliche but you need to head south, we still have a fair bit of work due to some big companies in london and surrounding counties, Coca-cola in Edmonton and Sidcup, Britvic in Beckton and Chelmsford, Tate and Lyle in Silvertown, Van den Burghs, Proctor and Gamble, the list goes on.

I work continental shift which gives me 18 days off a month so am trying to find some way of earning some cash, considering renovating houses but think I may have missed the boat.
