This a channel dedicated to our shop, Wackey Worx Workshop, and the projects that come from it. We love casting resin, turning wood and build furniture. Please follow along for the wackey adventures.
Thank you for the video! Question, what does it mean exactly when they say take the samples in regularly spaced intervals. Does that mean take one sample wait 5 min and take another sample? Sorry if that’s a dumb question
@@andy_o6133 no dumb questions, it's regularly spaced intervals within a 15-minute at the mid portion of the batch. So if you take your first sample at the mid portion of the batch and waited up two but not longer than 15 minutes to take your last sample, it's a regularly spaced interval. They just don't want you getting your complete sample in one shot.
@@dynad.8118 I don't see why not. The weight of a pool table's less than what is maxed out on these casters. And as long as you don't have big cracks or anything in the floor, I think it'd be fine.
@@andy_o6133 for C172 knowing all 5 types of mixers and how to sample from each. In the practical, there should be a list in the ACI book that tells you all the questions that they're going to ask you. Make sure that you know that one by heart cuz they're looking for those exact answers.
@@WackeyWorxWorkshop thank you so much I just got my book 2 days ago, I see the questions your talking about. I will do exactly that memorize them by heart!
@@WackeyWorxWorkshop can I ask you one other question. I’m pursuing an apprenticeship in the local 12 Operating Engineers. And some coworkers in my current job tell me horror stories about the layoffs in other union jobs do you have any insight or experience in this subject? I just bought a house not long ago and I can’t afford to get laid off
@@andy_o6133 I am not in any union but I have found that the more that you can do the more valuable that you make yourself, the less that you'll ever get laid off. I have never been released from any job doing CMT testing. I now run five Labs in the Atlanta metro area. I have no college education and barely graduated high school. The only person I answer to is is the vice president of the company. On a daily basis I get called upon from them to answer questions about testing projects and what test should be run. The more you put into it, the more you learn, the more that you're needed.
@@WackeyWorxWorkshop man that just made me so damn instead. I told my wife since starting this journey to become an inspector that from now on I will not not be studying for a new certification, until I’m happy where we are In life I just turned 30 so it’s grind time for me. Thank you for your reply you just reassured me that I’m headed in the right direction.
I made my own blast gates. 1/4” tempered Masonite as the slide, as well as the filler around the pipe opening. Used a 2 x 6 and cut an angled opening at pipe O. D. then glued the angled cut back together. The angled cut gives more glue surface. Then carefully glued the 2 x 6 to the filler, one on both sides. The filler is made with the 1/4” tempered Masonite of 3 layers. Top and bottom piece is 5” square with 4” opening cut in middle. Then for center, a 4 1/2” x 6”. This is the slide. It’s made, sized to cover the O. D. Of the pipe. The 6” dimension is so you can grab slide to open and close. I also drilled a finger hole for easier grabbing. Then just fill in around the slide to complete the blast gate and glue everything in place, except for the slide😂.
Three years on from the making of this video and it still is the most detailed on the effects of doing these mods and where the likely ceiling is on ROI. Thank you!
9:58 your like me, get to caught up in looking at the tools or project I forget what to tell the camera. I also just keep talking and leave it in the script 😂. Nice shop, I love getting ideas for my distant future shop build.
Hi Matt, thank you for the video. The manufacturer states that the kit of 4 castors, can hold up to 920 lbs.; (I assume, 230lbs. each). My bench is about 330 lbs. When I engage one castor on one corner, about half of the bench's weight (165 lbs.), will be resting on that one castor, until I am able to engage the second castor. In your opinion, will that be too much temporary weight for the one castor? Thank you.
@@MikeManwarren-r3b I do not represent the manufacturer but I have used them on mini benches that I have some of them weighing up to 900 lb and I have had no problems lifting the caster up all from one caster until I get the other one up.
I found the instructions under the removable cardboard piece on the bottom. I was working myself up into a real snit when I had nothing but pictures online to work from. I took everything out of the box and the supportive bottom fell out. There were the instructions and template.
I notice your Sawdust Nation flag on the wall!! Josh and Nap are the best!! Nick is now rocking with us at PwnCNC support!! Look forward to seeing your spindle setup!! #pwncnc
Those guys are great. They have been the only people that have toured my shop in person. Great guys. I am putting that video out soon. Thanks for stopping by.
Nice job. I'm looking to build a mezzanine level above a yet-to-be built finishing room and was going to do the stairs just like you did. Already got the winches. But you gave me some ideas and I like that you put a handrail on it. I might have to put my drinks fridge up higher like yours, too. I have three overhead doors and have not had any luck finding an insulation solution. In the winter, most heat loss is through the aluminum doors, per a thermal camera, they are glowing red/orange! Did you order the doors with the insulation already installed?
Yes, the insulation was already installed. The manufacturer only sold residential doors but sold them in a 10/10 or 10/8 size. I went with the size that I did because of it having more insulation than the 10/10. Plus I didn't want to give up any wall space.
@@WackeyWorxWorkshop Thanks, I might check around and see if anyone can do mine. Got two 12/12 in front and one 10/10 on the back. 40x50 building, 14 foot to rafters and no support posts in the way. I ran all my dust collection overhead and then down to vertical drops at my machine clusters and CNC. Didn't want any trip hazards. Wiring was put under a short false floor I put in, because concrete sucks to stand on for 10 hours. So far, it's pretty clear. Clear enough to have a Roomba. Thanks for the reply and good luck.
I just picked this stock system with Oneida separator up at estate sale for $100, only really using for a cnc right now but do have a small garage shop I see doing more to later. What was the Wynn filter you used and did it snap right in or are those clamps an additional cost
I have those dust collector components. I eliminated the fan discharge port first! And that 5" flex, and that separator. If you look at it, the flange is offering a 25 to 35 % restriction, the flex is restrictive big time and the "separator" is designed for 5". Even sized right, putting a separator in line, after a primary filter, is wasted space....
I always imagine that in the factory where these precise and highly accurate , millimetre perfect , tools are manafactured ........that every now and again they have " dumb down day" where they manafacture a batch of imperial ones 😂 . Imagine an environment where precision is down to the thickness of a hair for millimetre perfection, but every now and again you are forced to manafacture a batch of tools where you use your shoes , or close one eye and stick your tongue out to do the measurement spacing , just to satisfy the imperial " ahhh it's close enough" market 😁
1/32” is smaller than a millimeter and 1/64” is a lot smaller. Metric is ok for rough estimates of distance, but if you’re doing fine measurements in woodworking, go imperial or go home.
