was doing a ground run trying to chase down an electrical problem shut down to go get some tools and noticed we had a O-ring blow out from a hydraulic filter bowl under the aircraft replaced it ran up to do a leak check, all good and found the electrical problem :thumb:
??? Switch is 120/150 on/off factory for both
This is a 2 stage 175psi max pump.. needs a 5hp motor to run it.. both data plates on tank have max working psi of 175.. the 17.5 Rin 125psi.. but that later down the roaf

Spent my fair share of time in that country, not sure if I'm ready to go back. The money is surely enticing though.
Pulled the transmission out of my Burb... 4th gear clutch was nice... Then over run, forward, direct, intermediate, and both band intermediate and reverse are burnt.. though, all forward gears clicked off nice and clean... Except reverse, seam like I got a pressure issue..did fine couple valve body bolts looser than others..
Joys...
Had a collective hydraulic assembly go bad about got it out than put the new one in tonight so it can fly tomorrow
Got done milling on the thick blocks and sent them to the lathe. Put the 4 jaw chuck inside the 3 jaw chuck to make round. Customer wanted them split but didn't want a gap in the middle so we had to make them 2 piece. The big ones finish @ 14" long X 6.500" O.D. The small ones are 6.5" O.D. X 4.375" long.
nice work i hated putting my 4 jaw in my 3 jaw seen to many horror stories but sometimes its the only way
That 4 jaw goes on our small lathe and the big lathe doesn't have a 4 jaw. Compromise, lol.
Delivery I'm south Charlotte.. curfew put the job 4-5 hours behind...

Those 60 meter concrete pumps are wireless remote controlled and need a year round overweight permit where I live. Hell breaks loose when a joint pops from wear. I was running a local school job here in town when one went off, sounds like shotgun blast and the has the shrapnel to go with it.
Even with outriggers still trips me out that the things don't tip over when they are extended like that.
Should be close to 120k lbs. and all of them pretty much are wirelessly controlled. I think they're neat to watch. They can go completely vertical and pour concrete floors inside high-rise buildings.
