Suppose backing vocals don't match minor power chords from the Warlock?

spent the whole day fabricating today. 

 

made a jib outa 10mm hardened plate today(think it was called "hardock")?. took a couple hours to cut n shape it in a 100T press followed by an hour stitching it all up. Had to trim it up with the oxy once completed as it was slightly oversize. was good fun pretending to be a boily for a change. tomorrow morning might have to do final touches

You made a jig. A jib is the front sail off a yactch? I like pretending to be a service technician as well! You know what they say, a change is never as good as a holiday!

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
