Linseed oil and beeswax on inside stuff unless it's for food, then I use olive oil baked on in the oven. For outside stuff properly applied paint holds up well. Finnr

rfdecarter. You are not far from me. I'm about 45 minutes South of Eau Claire. Back to the question. We always have hauled tanks in an upright position Just plain safer. Finnr -
Mine isn't even finished yet and it's too small! LOL Finnr

Frosty said:" Besides, orifice size, forge volume, liner type, there's altitude, humidity and barometric pressure on a given day." Also what color socks you are wearing and which way the wind's blowing. Finnr

The forge I'm using right now is the center from an old chopper box wheel with a two inch strip of 1/8 inch steel wrapped around it. A few pieces of cast off plumbing and a hand cranked blower. Works great. Finnr

Welcome Dave. I'm located near Eau Claire some distance South of you. If you plan to be in the area give me a shout. Finnr

I have a Tiger But they seem to be quite scarce. from the look of the casting it's possible that a fan assembly from a Canedy Otto, might fit. Just a hairy guess on my part. Finnr

I need guidlines on hardning and tempering a spring
Finnr replied to nett's topic in Heat Treating, general discussion
My four inch vise has been doing a great job with a mild steel spring. It was handy and cheap(free ) so that's what the spring wasmade of. Finnr -
just sprinkle it on lightly. Too much flux is as bad as not enough. If you don't like the way good old 20 Mule bubbles up. Stick it in the oven in a glass dish at 350 or so for a couple hours, then break up the big lump and you have dried out a lot of the excess water. Oh don't let your Wife / Mother or other female catch you cooking off borax in her oven in her glass pan. Most get ttesty about those things. Finnr
