New toys!!

[djmatt]

Well I hope this weekend to shoot some more videos,but this week has just been strange..
Ill have to start a new thread with the 165 I just got..This is one of the gray heads,with the 265 connected together,Ive never seen one like it before,but just to give some background..the tube is still gas intacted,but the whole water jacket form the bell all the way to the anode was broken.. So the plan is to try and rebuild a new water jacket out of fiberglass ( which I love to work with) and see if I cant make a new water jacket
So far ive removed all the broken parts,which wasnt easy...this glass can not be cut!!
Im useing a pipe with wax paper, and a relase spray as a mold, so far Im up to 3 layers,I think 4 should work,ounce it sets, its like steel almost!! Now how to seal it to the anode and bell,im not sure yet..but Ive got a few tricks to use!!
As for the head...Ive still got to pull the mag, and change out a few things, and try to pop out all the dents. I think maybe 2 weeks it might lase again!!
Ive still got to finish the 168

...trust me on this. run at 32-35 amps MAX!

Seconded. Especially with this being a Kr... I would cap-it at 32-33A, max...

...IF YOU CAN< CANCEL NOW!

He can't... the 'quarter is up in the meter', at DSLI East, so it's gotta go, one way 'er another... as they say, 'Glass, Gas or PASS (Personal Argon Storage-Stipend
no one rides for free'...

So, yeah, Mr Matt - will-be driving down thru yer neck of the woods next week - 'tween the 30th / 31st - I can *most-likely* fit the beast in our truck... suggest we hook up, en-route, somehow, so you can save on shipping...What's that? ...Sure! I'd be happy to accept a small donation for gas / handling, that'd be swell...

PM or call...

[QUOTE=dsli_jon;187135]Hey Steve -




The skid pad gear on the back of the passenger jets lowers down but does not have a hook. RATS!

Jon,
Soon, or its dumpster stock. Brand new 6-7 watt tube, I'm told. I got it as a get the ^%$# thing out of my warehouse, I need the space, gift. I may even have a magnet. No Matt, it fits in a 20xx frame, not a 164.

Only thing is.. it only lets me run at 20amps... and no more.. but Im thinking its due to my phase converter not likeing the buck-boost trans for this thing..
