This goes back to February. Dark, rainy and there's a guy driving with no lights. I flashed my lights to try and tell him to turn his on. He then changed lanes into a turn lane and bounced over the curb on the other side of the turn. Never did turn his lights on.
Let's exit early, across a solid line into my path.
Started with a guy coming over from the merge to the center lane so close that I had to brake not to hit him. Next was a truck doing the same move to the vehicle infront of me. There was a also a guy who drifted into my lane beside me but the dash cam couldn't see it. The last was an old guy in a truck that doesn't seem to understand what a stop sign means. Pardon the crack, caught a stone the other week and it keeps spreading.
Anyone know what's going on with GunBroker? I receive a message saying I'm blocked and don't know why. I have a buddy who's account is doing the same thing. We are both in Canada but I went through special authorization years ago when I set the account up allowing me to bid from out of country. I submitted a ticket but haven't heard anything back yet.
He had a prohibition order and we made the transfer of handguns prohibited. There's no way this can be true... this must be fake news.
I picked up this generator but found it only liked to run with full choke on.
I used carb cleaner while it was running and cleaned the spark arrestor after which it would run decent at half choke. I added injector cleaner to the tank hoping to get the jets cleaned and ran it for an hour. This is what is seen in the video. As the choke is fully opened, the engine will surge and sputter eventually shutting down.
I am hoping someone can give me advice.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: this is a Champion 73552i inverter generator
Hi all. Just wanted to get a little advice.
I like to replate the nickel on some of my old antique pistols (nothing with actual historical value) and have had mixed results. The first ones I did turned out amazing, not professional new but perfect for an antique (they looked good but not perfect which allowed them to still look thier age). Some of my newer projects haven't been turning out as well and I'm not sure why. I was thinking of creating a new batch of nickel acitate but don't know if that's really the issue.
My process is typically this
Buff/polish
Degrease thoroughly
Pickle with HCl solution
Rinse
Plate in vinegar based nickel acitate solution
-typically around 3 to 3.5 volts
-typically 20 to 45 minutes depending on observed coverage
The issues are a lack of coverage some times, black edges and other times the new nickel peals off of the old (I know that adhesion to old nickel is hard to do and this is the least of my problems as the final buff will usually remove any flaking and leave a uniform appearance).
I usually have multiple anodes setup to hit multiple sides at once. My solution is a couple/few years old and has some white precipitate in it which I intend to filter out.
What can I do to improve my setup? Would a copper plate prior to the nickel help with adhesion?
Thanks in advance for your time.
