Good job 👍 believe me you are better than some professional mechanics at dealerships

Hi Kelly, what blade do you use for cutting fordite.

I should have married you! ***smile***

Thank you for this technique. I am new to the hobby and just bought a unit that had been sitting for 8 years. Much mud in the bottom. Got most of the oil and mud out. However, the oil (and I'm not sure what type of oil it is...the fellow passed away and the son sold it to me) has a very strong petroleum smell. He used the slab saw to cut obsidian for making arrow heads. In the CNC world the cutting fluid would get very smelly due to bacterial growth and need changing. Not sure if this is part of the smell. Is there something that is commonly done to reduce petroleum odor of the oil, or of the finished cut rock that smells from the oil? Thanks in advance!

Great job…… especially with your hand tremors going on👍🏼

Great video. So much easier than taking the carburetor off. I could not get the jet out but was able to clean it with a small needle. Put it back together and started on the first pull. Female ingenuity!!😊

Can you show how to disassemble that completely to take the belt off and everything?

old guitar strings work well for cleaning jets

Ive been running mine almost daily for 2 years. Ive had to start running it with the side cover off or it overheats and shuts down, ive had the sparkalator foul twice from running slow bc the draw was low for an extended period and the etc lowered the rpms and ive started to have trouble with the co2 sensor. Need to delete it, i never run it indoors. Overall its a tough unit. Outside 24/7 for 2 years strapped on my trailer and run daily for electric/heat/ac in my truck in my off time.

What is wrong with you, why do you have hand tremors, I'm asking because I have the same thing and I was just wondering what it's from. Thank you.

thank you for the video and how to drain fuel. and look at the carburetor mine is leaking fuel when tilted a little. My generator predator 2000 when starting the overload light comes on with no load it was not doing this before I changed the oil and spark plug. I took it somewhere and he won't work on it but didn't really tell me what was wrong with it after charging me fee. He said generator side take it here so so place

I have table top turkey oven tyat works great

Thank very much!

What settings did you have it on out of interest?

I have the same generator, thank god my yamaha 1000 generator and my suzuki outboard have those low speed little jets on the outside of the carb

Good job

purple passion... nice

WHEN YOU GRABBED THAT, YOUR HAND STARTED SHAKING, YOUR BREATHING CHANGED...OMG, I FELL IN LOVE!

What if it's a brand new blade and it's still binding up?

I just found a pile of this on the back of my property. Probably a couple hundred pounds. No idea what to do with it though

Why are you posting a video instead of asking questions.Good god but funny to watch

How do you protect the sticker? Just tape it?

😂

Found some nice translucent chunks of Williamsite in Washington DC boundaries, they’re gorgeous! From Michigan and Been collecting rocks for lapidary and it’s exciting to discover a stunning local specialty. Nowhere near as nice as your parcel though!

this helped a lot

That’s a hell of a piece to find right off the edge of the road with a 14 kHz detector just below the surface of flow gravel. 😅

I have a Lee Lapidary also and I am looking for any info on it. Can you get hold of me please

I bought a Lee Lapidary faceting machine and I can not find any information on it. Do you know where I can find some?

A very important note on this!! YOU MUST NOT USE A PLEXI GLASS LID when doing this with Cactus Juice!! Only use a GLASS PRESSURE TANK LIDs!! If you use Plexi Glass, the Cactus Juice will eat your Plexi Glass surface. What I did, was to get a cheap "Glass Dome Cooking Pot Lid" that is large enough to cover the plastic bucket inside your vacuum tank pot. Take the knob OFF the Cooking Pot Glass lid and put the dome glass lid UPSIDE DOWN over your plastic bucket to keep any Cactus Juice splashes OFF your pressure tank lid. The cooking pot glass dome being upside down will force any drips to run back into your bucket with your Cactus Juice. This will save your Plexi Glass Pressure Lid from the Cactus Juice eating and marring your Pressure take lid to where you cannot see through it. When this happened to mine, I had to sand my Pressure lid and pour a new surface layer of clear counter top resin on it to make it see through again. So remember, if your Pressure Tank lid is Plexi Glass, you MUST put a glass cooking pot glass dome upside down on the inner bucket to keep Cactus Juice splashes from getting on your Pressure tank lid. Did photos but can't load here. Just get a cheap, 4-8 qt. cooking pot with a domed glass lid and take the handle off. Make sure the pot lid will be wide enough to cover the inside bucket you use. Use a plastic bucket inside your pressure tank. Even though Cactus Juice wipes out, it still leaves a residue layer in your tank and can conflict with other chemicals, especially resin based chemicals. Don't use a bare tank for your chemicals. Always use a plastic bucket. It saves your equipment and your work from cross contamination.

Excellent job , the pan you are taking about is called the bowl Excellent job

GREAT and informative video/tutorial. That are those little rods that you use?

Your videos keep coming up when I search for information on so many different topics... Thanks for being so generous with your knowledge!

Nice to see Steve O's hobby

I’m having slight streaks within my stint after using a brand new diamond edged saw. Is that normal and maybe just me with shaky hands or should I be concerned

Great Job and Great Video. I used a sewing pin to open the jet and wire to clean the main jet! Done in 20 minutes and works like a champ. Thankyou for taking the time to post this video.

Great video. Thank you.

I'm in the process of fixing up a Lortone JUST like that and the motor for the feed seems to be the only thing that's not working. Where did you find the crank and what is it called? I love this idea!

Where is this area located? Do you have the coordinates?

Cactus juice is very interesting... Thank you for a nice and enjoyable video.

That good looks funny 🫤

Dawn works and I never had an issue with it. one or two drops directly on the slab and a little warm water less messy than kitty litter the water can be returned to the earth by pouring it on the driveway, Kitty litter is a problem to get rid of and is not easy to dispose of. Low velocity mineral oil from Highland park is the best oil on the market and any other is a problem waiting to happen.

I find williamsite all the time in SW Oregon

I have no idea what you are even saying...moving on

I think this is very fascinating. Beautiful pieces , love the colors. New to this but was always fascinated by and awestruck at the finished products. We have lots of copper in my area and want to get into finding , shining and selling arena. Thank you for sharing some of your adventures through videos !

dont put your fingers in the ulrtrasonic. It will damage your finger bones

Cool video, I will give this a try, thank you for showing us The Lapidary Channel.

IT WORED, Thank you Thank you Thank you!!

You didn't restore this. Click bait.
