  1. Never thought of that,,,,,, I tried it for other things, but that went nowhere so I figured it didn't work as the name claims,,,,,,,YA!
  2. Hey,,, it's only fair warning for the kid,,,,,, I took her 'out' once and the border guards gave me a going over,,,,,,, look out kid, she's trouble!!!!!
  3. Answers: The spacer is smaller, I made it just right with that in mind. I have an impact, but I think I'll look for a bigger one. I think the vibration may help if nothing else. That puppie won't fly off, but just in case there are a whole bunch of rags in a basket ready to catch the critter when and if it does birth. I watch the puller closely for distortion, but you may be correct on minute twisting, so I go for an impact. The bolt going into the crank has a spacer under it which fits inside the flywheel, so things can pop if they want to. Going for the impact. Thanks Guys, you're good support. And Oh, I think the exhaust on Wayne's machine is manageable, I think it's starting to listen to reason after seeing what's going on next door.
  4. Been at this for a week now almost,,,, trying to remove the fly wheel so I can send the starter clutch to Dano, so he can make his millions, but the dang thing won't jump off. Just how much torque is too much or is my next tool selection a sledge an then a jack hammer. I've heated it, tapped it, pounded it, spoke to it, about it, did everything but take it to bed with me,,,,,, I'm not sure Marca would understand or appreciate it. What Now??????
  5. And so the saga continues..........................
  6. Thanks for posting this Ben, it's been tough on you and your family, but it's also great to note that you are all one together. Spend a bit of time with your Creator at a time like this, I think you'll find Him to be a peace that passes all understanding.
  7. Naw,,, he wouldn't do that would he?????
  8. Praying for you as well, it's mostly the best medicine!
  9. And you said you would keep it secret,,,,, now everybody knows!!!
  10. Found some at PleasureWay Pools in Brantford,,,, $40.00 for the kit. Let me know if you want me to pick some up.
  11. Best leave that in place as well,, it's part of the bearing.
  12. If you value your life, you should not post this during the winter....... we have a lot of time on our hands and may come to find you somewhere.
  13. Why do you ask,,, didn't you get it????
  14. What exactly do you mean by 'insert'. If you remove the axle, all is well, nothing will fall out, if you try to remove the spacer in between the bearings, buy new bearings first.
  15. HEY!!!!!!!!!!! how did I get into this story,,,,,, did I do something to you???? next you're going to let the cat out of the bag and tell them who's b,,,,, oh never mind, you would never tell that story anyways!!!!!
  16. Wow,,, shirt sleeves ad lawn chairs,,,, glad it didn't happen in Ontario, or anywhere else in Canada,,,, ya'll would have been in a huddle, learning how to hug real tight. Hope it all works out for ya. I do have a spare 1st gen power plant sitting here, but that might be a little tooo fast for that beast.
  17. It's still as slow as molasses in January,,,, I know it's January, but I not sure about the site being molasses.
  18. Most of us don't have to worry about things like that for long. It must be the quality of the inserted object and the regular treatment of the issue in question.
  19. All the same feelings from this end as well. And don't worry about Mini too much,,, we'll be here to look after her, and she doesn't mind asking for help,,, so that is all good. God bless you and keep you!
  20. The nerve!!!!!!!!!!!! Try your local pool supply store, could be lucky.
  21. When Tom bought his Blackberry, he thought about the 30-year business he ran with 1800 employees, all without a cell phone that plays music, takes videos, pictures and communicates with Facebook and Twitter. He signed up under duress for Twitter and Facebook, so his seven kids, their spouses, 13 grandkids and 2 great grand kids could communicate with him in the modern way. He figured he could handle something as simple as Twitter with only 140 characters of space. That was before one of his grandkids hooked him up for Tweeter, Tweetree, Twhirl, Twitterfon, Tweetie and Twittererific Tweetdeck, Twitpix and something that sends every message to his cell phone and every other program within the texting world. His phone was beeping every three minutes with the details of everything except the bowel movements of the entire next generation. He was not ready to live like this. He now keeps his cell phone in the garage in his golf bag. The kids bought him a GPS for his last birthday because they say he gets lost every now and then going over to the grocery store or library. He keeps that in a box under his tool bench with the Blue tooth [it's red] phone he is supposed to use when he drives. He wore it once and was standing in line at Barnes and Noble talking to his wife and everyone in the nearest 50 yards glaring at him. He had to take his hearing aid out to use it, and then got a little loud. The GPS looked pretty smart on his dash board, but the lady inside that gadget was the most annoying, rudest person he'd had run into in a long time. Every 10 minutes, she would sarcastically say, "Re-calc-u-lating." You would think that she could be nicer. It was like she could barely tolerate him. She would let go with a deep sigh and then tell him to make a U-turn at the next light. Then if he made a right turn instead......Well, it was not a good relationship. When he gets really lost now, he calls his wife and tell her the name of the cross streets and while she is starting to develop the same tone as Gypsy, the GPS lady, at least she loves him. To be perfectly frank, he is still trying to learn how to use the cordless phones in their house. They have had them for 4 years, but he still hasn't figured out how he can lose three phones all at once and have to run around digging under chair cushions and checking bathrooms and the dirty laundry baskets when the phone rings. The world is just getting too complex for him. They even mess him up every time he goes to the grocery store. You would think they could settle on something themselves but this sudden "Paper or Plastic?" every time he checks out just knocks him for a loop. He bought some of those cloth reusable bags to avoid looking confused, but can never remember to take them in with him. Now he tosses it back to them. When they ask him, "Paper or Plastic?" he just says, "Doesn't matter to me. I am bi-sacksual." Then it's their turn to stare at him with a blank look. He was recently asked if he tweets. He answered, No, but I do toot a lot." P.S. I know a few of you are not over 50. I sent it to you to allow you to forward it to those who are.
  22. I'm not old enough to be my own grandpa,,,, so it's kind of hard for me to standunder.
  23. I don't get it!!!!!
  24. Wow,,, looks like mostly Americans,,,,, now that is awesome,,,,,,,, uh wait a minute, that means there weren't very many Canucks there,,,,,, ooppps! Glad you all had a good time,,,, as it turned out, we didn't need to stay home after all,, all the family things that needed doing got postponed, but not until after it was to late to change our direction,,, oh well, now it's wait til the next time.
