      Why not switch to metric/smaller units when you start having to use "1/20000 inch" as the measurement? 1.27 micrometers (as example) is far easier to understand

    As you and Adam were saying, it's almost a shame you won't be able to see that work of art. But thinking about it, those clean, smooth surfaces will be improving the performance. So in a way, you'll be able to "feel" the beauty of Adam's work every time you use the power hammer.

    Factor meals are actually DELICIOUS. I don't usually comment about sponsors, but I used them when I was single, low carb, finishing university, and working full-time as an intern, and it was a life saver. Customer support was incredibly easy when needed, which was rare. They never skipped a beat during the pandemic. It was a great match for that time of my life, so check it out if it sounds like it could be for you too.

  • @johnporter8896
    @johnporter8896 Рік тому +9

    Before you file it, try making a wooden plug with a large head, then heat up the top of the casting and try hitting it into place using the plug to protect the bronze. Worth a try at least.

    • @carlthor91
      @carlthor91 Рік тому +3

      Nope, it has a death grip on it's home now. If you try to force it to move now, the bearing would be damaged. How much I'll leave to the millwrights in the crew, they are the best educated to respond.
      Best wishes from the far North.

    • @Hellsong89
      @Hellsong89 Рік тому

      Depends. Old bearing was drenched in oil and took both heating and cooling plus massive amount of force to move due large surface area or bearing walls. If you go try to move it now, heat and cooling would be needed and even then bronze might change its shape due relatively small end surface area messing up everything and requiring to be reamed back in size. Depending on how much the difference is, its best to take millimeter or two off from casting rather than try to mess with the bearing. If its 5mm... well i would consider trying to redo it, but Will said its 0.762 mm under, so less than millimeter being taken out would not negatively effect the hammer, specially if the casting is bit uneven. In wills case its pretty straight, but smoothening that is not much of a issue and this should not effect rest of the hammers function at all.

      Ohh Paul - once the two interference fit 3d surfaces are shrunk fitted with the vast temperature differential they can seldom be chilled/heated to a different location, or even removed one from the other depending on the fitment number ranges chosen. So in short no, and not as easy to re-position once the temps start to interface mechanically. MikeC
