    Exhibitors who came last year should have their entry forms by now, This year we have made a few changes and there will be a lot more attractions coming to include classic cars/motorcycles more children entertainment plus lots more. The Horticultural section will have a working area as well as our usual arena display so we’re looking for more exhibitors to join us. As some will know Pestalozzi has been sold and we are unsure of future events on this site so we would like to make this show the biggest one yet. Anyone that wants an entry form please PM me and I can send or email you one .

    That certainly looks like something that could be scanned and 3D printed with either FDM or SLS technology in a Nylon material or even a higher performance polymer like PPSU, PEI or PEKK. If you decide to get it scanned sometime let me know and maybe I can give it a go with 3D printing. Might even be a good candidate for a machined version in aluminum. Heck it could also be machined from a stock shape of polymer.

    Service time.

    Decided to give the fleet a service yesterday. Engine oil on all except the C-125. That was done after the rebuild. So C-81, The Black Horse and Sears/Roper all got new blood. The trans were drained by jacking up the front and a 3" block under the RH rear wheel. I only did the C-81 and C-125. The oil in the other two was done last year and still clean. I did find both RH rear tyres on the C-81 and C-125 had no air in. C-81 possibly not sealing and the C-125 has a split valve. They'll be sorted next week. Today was grease day. Every grease nipple I could find got done. Much to my surprise the Sears/Roper had no grease nipples in the axle spindles. Holes yes. Nipples no. Also no way to grease the axle pivot. OK! I'll do something about that. Jack up the front and lower on to axle stands. Keep the H&S bods happy. Removed the track rods from the spindles and spindles complete with wheels. Why make work. Then the axle itself after removing the front hitch. With that on you couldn't remove the pivot bolt. Drilled out the holes for the nipples and re-threaded to take the larger nipples I had. The nipples protruded into the spindle tube, so thin washers were used to pack them out. Next the pivot bolt. This was over long so lost a1/4" then into the lathe to have a grease hole drilled up the centre. Then a hole drilled through the bolt shank halfway along. Finally the end threaded to take a grease nipple. All back together and greased.

    O&R generator parts

    Cool, thank you for the information. Then it is likely that it came from them. I tried to find som information on that company, but it is not mentioned that much anywhere. You seam to sitt on allot of nice information on these little engines. Nice to know. These engines was totally unknown to me just a few month ago. But once I got this little generator, I just love them. Love the craft, and the way they are build. A bit addictive actually.

    Tiny Tor Generator Model 30A (Algert Co.)

    Looks like I never added this one here (it was posted on the old forum), this Tiny Tor generator was the first O&R I acquired back in 2012 and it started my interest & my collection of these little engines. It's the Tiny Tor Model 30A (distributed by Algert Co. of Los Angeles) with a 220/240 volt AC outlet, as well as the standard battery charging output found on the similar Tiny Tiger generators. David

    Colonel Dick Cole, General Doolittle's co pilot passes away at 103 years old. He was just 26 when he and the rest of the men set off on one of history's most daring raids. https://taskandpurpose.com/doolittle-raid-dick-cole-obituary?utm_content=buffer07c02&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer&fbclid=IwAR3_NQj7udt1TapqmMQHmUC0UquV19ta6DvsLSAEYG6g531LMR4Eq2jBIq8

    I'm not. Done that before. I would have fitted the nipple in the axle, but that wasn't possible due to the construction of it. Box section with a tube through it for the bolt. Possibly bushed but I didn't look.
