Hey Karl the wife had a in planned layover in O'Hare last night, no ide why she left a message from the USO!

Cause the uso is the only place open 24 hrs in an airport

It's an AC/DC TIG welder with HF start so yeah, it's a pro welder.

Did I hear somebody say "AC/DC"???

 

[halifaxhops]

And usually has cookie! They are great when you have a layover. I was coming back alone from the sand box once and got a layover for 7 hours they had a cot to pass out on and woke me up when it was needed. Cannot say enough about them. Once my wife was flying alone with the kids were young and my son puked all over himself and she had a few hour layover. They washed his clothes for him and she was able to shower him off also. Think that might have been O'Hare also.

 

[krazykuda]

It was like 1am here she left the message.

Is she still here or has she left already???

Guys, what is the large pipe thread on the front of the LD340 intake? Is it 3/4" NPT? I can't remember.

 

[halifaxhops]

No idea hope she is in Arizona by now. I am sure I will get a call today. I have to send her some meds she left here. Fell like a drug dealer!

I thought I sent you one?

[360DartGT66]

That was the small one. And thank you again.

I'm looking for taps to clean up the threads which is why I'm asking.

 

[halifaxhops]

That sounds right, but I'm not positive on that...

If you have a choice, get a straight pipe thread tap, not a tapered one...

If you tap too deep with a tapered pipe tap, the hole gets larger and you may bottom the fitting out in the hole...

A straight pipe thread is not depth sensitive and will work fine and you don't have to worry about the depth when you tap...

Good morning. You guys been here all night or what?

 

[halifaxhops]

Since threeish for me. Hey if you want theat spare board it is yours will not work for mine.

Ok, hang onto it. No rush. If I would bother to make one, it won't happen for a while.

 

[halifaxhops]

Next time we meet remind me and I will bring it.

 

[halifaxhops]
