Will never forget the one armed boss that sent me into the back end of an Okuma to track down a coolant leak, machine was E stopped and the operator was notified. Crawled behind the electrical cabinet and sat on top of the main spindle motor, started feeling down the coolant lines running through the casting till I felt the frayed wires. Yelled out that I found it and the one armed fella yells out “alright, hey Justin, turn it on and turn the coolant on to be sure.” My hind end hath never puckered up so much in my life when I felt all the contactors click on in the electrical cabinet I was leaning up against whilst sitting on top of a 26 horse motor. Needless to say I don’t work for that company anymore.

Something sorta neat. In an aluminum reverb furnace they count on the aluminum haveing high surface tension to not leak. If the burner gets stuck on and overheats the furnace. The aluminum becomes more like water and it just starts leaking out of all the cracks in the refractory. It's neat how it works. Not neat for the guys in the plant that now have to try to scrape a slab of spilled aluminum that has molded itself to the floor and around any near by structure.

I had to look up whatever it is you're building (found Lisle makes one out of metal too) cause I couldn't understand what it was supposed to do. So there's two spots on the camshafts that are slightly bigger than the shaft, cut in straight lines, which prevents them from turning with this thing. Considering VW figured out the whole "timing two cam gears" thing years ago, this Ford solution is hilarious to me.

A friend of mine recently had to have the water pump replaced on his wifes Ford Focus(?). For some reason, manufacturers have decided that it's a GREAT idea to put them inside the timing cover, thereby requiring replacement of the timing components as part of the job. Our local, independent shops were willing to try it but, wouldn't guarantee the work BECAUSE the cam locking tools are such low quality. The car ended up at the Ford dealer and the repair was finished 3 days later.

Edit: I should have watched a few minutes longer - looks like you're already using flux. Bah. I'll keep this here in case someone else needs the info. For remelting the aluminum chips, you need some flux. Sodium Chloride (table salt) and Potassium Chloride (a salt substitute) mixed together is used in commercial remelting. Use a bunch over the top of the aluminum and melt away. Keeps out the oxygen, helps break down the oxides. I'd probably get a bag of salt and a bag of potassium chloride from a water softener supplier. A bag of each should last even through that Canadian winter.

Have you ever tried the spinning liter bottle over a couple of gallons of water in a plastic bucket? Peanut butter and jelly on the liter bottle suspended with a wire in the middle of the bucket horizontally. Piece of board ramps up to the end of the wire from the ground. Mouse runs up the ramp, jumps to the peanut butter, liter bottle spins dumping said mouse off into the water. Bingo ready for the next subject. I have seen as many as a dozen in the water and they continue to come. Sorry, I have no sympathy for the destructive little buggers. This works great because you don't have to tend it much. Extremely effective compared to other methods. None escape to die in wall cavities or attics. They can't seem to resist the peanut butter and jelly.
