I made an ultrasonic cleaner out of some jars and an electric sander I found on a recent dumpster dive safari . Well,.. it's more of an "ultrasonic-ish" vibrating cleaner really .... and it works bad a$$ ! Perfect for carburetor and other delicate motorcycle parts as I continue to work on the café racer !
Send me stuff !
Yes- I actually do send stickers out to those who contribute bits, parts, stuff for my projects and pretty much everyone who I talk about or thank in my videos. If you want to send me bike stuff, things for potential use in videos or tools to review etc. (or even just cash donations ! )

Two absolutely great ideas for us DIY people who no doubt will use the palm sander and CLR ideas when they need to clean one carburetor per year and don't want to spend $100 for an ultrasonic unit. Thanks a ton!

@nathanpearce7169 3 года назад

Hey I have few tips as far as energy transmission to your part. So you took the cleaner off the bench which is a good idea. However, if you were to turn it upside down and put the sander in a heavy vice you would get the best energy transfer and here's why. When you hang the sander your still allowing the energy to move the sander instead of the jar and the part. If it were in a Vice the sander wouldnt move as much causing the easiest energy path to be to the part. An example if this in action would be a blacksmith using a heavy anvil vs a light one because the heavy one won't be as effected by the kinetic energy of the hammer. That makes the blacksmiths energy go more into the metal piece and less into the anvil. If anyone understands what I'm saying and can help elaborate that would be great.

@steadyeddie7453 2 года назад

Nathan- Absolutely agree. Some of the energy is lost moving the sander back and forth, not the jar. I think of using a sawzall. When the blade starts to hang up in the material the saw body then just oscillated back and forth. The energy transferred from the blade to the body. Cheers.

The best vibration transfer happens when you hold the machine fixed on a solid surface and leave the jar free. If you hang it as you did, motion is assigned proportionally to the weight %.

@ChuckD59 4 года назад

I don't have an ultrasonic and there isn't one in my immediate future but I have a sander so I'm game to try this. 2 things I'd suggest: I think by hanging the sander and not bracing it in a vise or something you're losing vibration energy as some goes into vibrating the vibrator. Also, I saw somewhere the idea of filling an ultrasound with plain water and placing your parts in containers filled with the cleaning solution. That way you don't have to change out the liquid all the time as you clean different parts. In addition to that information it was found that glass will transmit energy much better than plastic. Wish I could give credit to the YTer who showed that but it makes sense to me. Thanks for the demo!

@denmartos6019 3 года назад

I believe that you can get maximum vibration if the sander was kept stationary on something like a vise. Suspended on strings wont be as effective because the strings can act like a shock absorber. This is still the best diy ultrasonic cleaner I have seen so far.

Those larger containers are a game-changer for everything! We get those filled with assorted nuts or cat treats (slightly smaller size), and use them for storing things, cleaning things, sorting things, etc. I must have more than a hundred containers like that around the house filled with screws, nuts, small parts, even computer cables and such. I wish I'd thought to start using those years earlier.

@Pyridox 8 лет назад

The agitation does help, a scrubbing action and getting into tiny passages. Just using a solvent or cleaner on it's own works, but agitating the solution does increases its effectiveness. I have used this method in the past for small engine carburetors, but I didn't use a caustic chemical like CLR because it's harsh aluminum & plastic. I have used Xylene, mineral spirits, water with some lemon juice, or Marvel mystery oil as the cleaning solution.

Suggestion: Instead of using velcro as your way of attaching the sander to the lid I'd probably use an adhesive instead. The velcro likely dampens a significant amount of the vibration transferred from the sander to the jar. Might sound trivial, but he sharper pressure wave should clean way better.

Something a little milder to try as a good parts cleaning solution is 'simple green' or 'Dettol original' here in th UK.

Like me, I'm sure a lot of people are wondering if this would work with a belt sander. I have one of those big bench mounted dealies with about 18" of useable belt space. Well, I tried it. It's a *lot* more complicated: I had to keep starting and stopping the belt, then manually lifting the jar from the end of the belt to the start, giving the motor another little blast and so on. You need to be *very* careful. My first test was with a carburettor thingy and that went well (but exhausting!). The second test was with a flywheel and I didn't stop it in time - the bucket+flywheel went clear through the partition wall and into my wife's kitchen. Suffice to say she got a shock!

Just a couple of quick questions. You suggest making the plate out of aluminum. Is it possible to buy this on the internet as here in the UK everywhere only seems to stock aluminium? Secondly my local tool shop insists that cable ties they stock are the same as zip ties. Are they just trying to make a sale and would cable ties work as well?

@IchibanMoto 9 лет назад

Peter Huskins To the best of my knowledge, aluminum is only available in america and parts of Canada, so you certainly need to import it to the UK. Yes, cable ties and zip ties are very similar and may easily be confused . Your shop should have a conversion table to identify the correct type by application.
