GruffaloGriff 1,852 Posted December 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Did you use a router box to make the treads on the loader tyres? TC No made in two halves then glued together, grooves cut on band-saw with table at a tilt and as the table only tilts one way, a angled fillet of wood to get the opposite angle. The lad did all the grooves himself, must have took him half a day to do them all. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GruffaloGriff 1,852 Posted January 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Came home after work on Wednesday and my boy had dismantled an old microwave, pulled the transformer out and made an electromagnet. Basically Welded the steel layered core up the corners ant cut out the coil with the fine winding leaving the coil with the heavy winding, attach to a battery and you have a powerful electromagnet. This one lifts a 14lb fencing mal effortlessly with an 18v drill battery. Not sure what use it is but a bit of fun all the same! 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
