Hello

Just inquiring if anyone would be interested in a gas welded stainless steel Lady jane Grey. $200 au plus postage.I have to build one for a mate so while i got the jigs out I would be more than happy to churn a couple of extra ones out.

Hello

Fricke,I have found a alternator with the brush holders on the rear,you said unsolder the 2 wire and run them to a rheostat,Do I join these wires together and run my positive feild to this? also what sort of voltage should I aim for so I can set my rpm.Any help would be great

Thanks
Tim

Hello How you all going I'm very interested in building a tig with an alternator,but I,m struggling to find a suilable alternator,I have found a Lucas 14ac,Lucas 14 acr and a bosch uk 41,but all seem to have internal voltage regulators,Capt Ahab what model and brand alternator are you using,or does ...

Hello M

I am fuelling the Mastor via 4 intakes with flared and pinched injectors,this is for start up and running.Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hello Joe,the noise level was still fairly high,but like you said doesn't have the edge as when it's running full tilt.I still wouldn't try running it without ear protection at idle but. M,I just brought some more 1 mm sheet,oiled up my slip roll and bought a new roll of mig wire,ready when you are ...

Hello I think you maybe right about the electronic scales,Itested them this morning and the load has to stabilize for about 10 second before you get a reading,not much hope in getting a pulse jet to stabilize,so that idea is out.I would really like to get some sort of remote way of getting a thrust ...

Hello M,I did calibrate the fish scales,and they were maybe 300-350g over what the weight was,as for the pulleys before I started the engine I remove all the slack from the pulleys,the readings are to the closest 500g,towards the top end of the throttle range it was hard to get a reading as the scal...

hello M here is your thrust figures.Full gas cylinder. Temperature 34.9c Barometric pressure 1009.9hpa 192m above sea level First run (cold start) minimum 4kg,Maxium 12kg second run (hot start) minimum 2kg,maximum 14kg third run (hot start) minimum 2kg,maximum 14kg Giving you an average 13.3333kg ma...

Hello

Just got my fish scales, all they had was a 12kg max set so I'm rigging up some pulleys to reduce the pull ratio

M should definitly have some thrust figures today,I was going to do a minium thrust and a Max thrust,do 3 runs of each and get an average,does that sound ok.

Thanks
Tim

Hello

I went on the hunt for some scales yesterday with no luck,might have to drive to the next town to find some.If I can't find a 30kg set I will just make a lever system to to double or triple the force on my sled.

Thanks
Tim

Hello


here's my thrust stand finished just got to add a set of fish scales,and strap the Astor to it and I should have some thrust measurements for you M.

Thanks
Tim

Hello M I had a rethink of my thrust stand,and am building a totally new one,my last one was as strong as a folded out clothes hanger,so I should finish up today with fab.The pubs in Monto are in Newton st(main st)one is at the top of the street and the other is at the bottom and you guessed it they...

hello

I'm on the edge of my seat M,I will try to get some thrust figures today if I get time.

Thanks
Tim

Hello

M I got you some audio,it's at about 4/5 throtle.As it heated up the sound changed I hope this will be alright,if WMA is no good I will email you wav,mp3.

Thanks
Tim
