What's on your bench?

[Dub11]

Odd yours came matte and I just got mine last week and it is gloss and mine doesn't match

Sounds like you guys should trade.

I’m putting this back together. It’s a mix of junk I have and aftermarket parts. All “moving parts” including bearings are oem. Cylinder will be a slant fin. I still need 3 small parts before I can continue.

You want to trade? You want matte or gloss? Doesn’t matter either way to me, just want it to match.

Looking at the first couple pics I thought it caught fire! It cleaned up really well. What did you use?

My wife would literally gut me alive if I used the dryer as a work bench!

It’s a broken one in the garage. I’m hauling it off soon.

Hahaha, I was joking. Well, sort of; the wife would gut me alive, no disputing that! It doesn’t matter what is used as a bench, as long as its a usable work surface.

Bought as the complete HD filter kit:



Filter base is gloss but the filter cover is matte.

Oddly my 7910 Dolmar is gloss air filter and matte cylinder cover, my Makita is same way, will be nice to have one that is all matte except the base.

Mineral spirits in the parts washer

Mineral spirits in the parts washer

And it didn’t washout or dull the paint. Is it a heated parts washer?

Well that will be remedied shortly

Nah. Mineral spirits isn't that strong. Similar to kerosene.
Not heated

Oh boy! I heard back from LeBlond and got a solid confirmation the lathe is a 15” Dual Drive. He is pulling records for what we assume is the correct serial number.

Pull that wash tub out of there. They make excellent burn barrels
