These production runs in the shop take time away from our carnival ride restorations, but they also help fund them. Double Edged Sword. Check out our restoration projects here: ru-vid.com/group/PL9JRE2uksm9tonX17TZt38K6RH2EnDNf1
You keep a lot calmer than I do in those situations. I did think it was 'Jedi' Pete when you showed up with hood up but I'm guessing you were cold in there with no heat. Your videos are better than TV so I always look forward to a new one. Keep them coming Pete !!
Watching Sleeperdude!!!! Love it! This seems like a mirror of my stuff, except I don't have an electronics factory in my garage. I do have stuff that breaks. Stuff that breaks for no reason. Stuff that breaks without me touching it and I have to fix that stuff no matter why it breaks! LOL
Hey Pete I haven’t seen or heard from you …. Just checking in on you … I love your channel and I do look forward on seeing your videos… take care friend. 😊
As a maker/small business owner that does similar type of work but also has an interest in amusement rides I’d like to see more of it. Even if you did it on a second channel.
Always amazing seeing the assembly line, very nice pick´n place machine! For the drive, I bet the driving circuit of the breaking FET has a problem too...
Thanks, I believe it is something like that as well. I haven't traced the circuit yet- I'm hopeful it leads to the logic card rather than being embedded in the power module. Time will tell.
Glad to hear it. There are only so many hours in the day so if I want to make a video, I pretty much have to make it about whatever I'm working on at that point in time. And, of course, the ride restoration has stretched on way too long because of it so I'm glad to hear there is still support out there! Thanks!
Great channel! Congrats for the good work! This is an impressive production lab at home! I figure those pc boards your design? It would be interesting if you could do some videos talking about your electronic circuit boards (the market, what they do, FW, schematics, etc)
I know the ride restoration is your passion but for me at least, I'm enjoying this kind of videos at least as much. I actually found you from small parts organisation videos actually.
you checked out chinese diesel heaters? they have a seperate exhaust so no fumes and run more than diesel. i've been learning about alternative and cheap heat lately.
my only concern with them is that we heat the shop 24/7. I wouldn't be comfortable leaving that on when I'm not around. I have thought of trying them for additional heat while I'm there. Like, say we keep the shop at 60 degrees all the time and when I'm there use the diesel to run it up to a more comfortable working temperature. That could work.
wait.. i use fancy alpha metals SAC305 solder paste and i need to refrigerate it and manage it a lot. if i don't, the flux evaporates and i get solder balls and other issues.. i thought yours (QC10) also likes to be stored at 5Celcius. Unless your shop is the refrigerator 😂
