I was thinking about getting one of those laser thermometers to keep an eye on the temps.
Is that wood glue around the insert? If you still have a little bit of the insert slot that you used the tool on I would try to back it out with a flat head. If that doesnt work put some jb weld or epoxy on a cap head screw and let it cure fully. You should be able to get it out by backing it out by hand. I would also suggest installing the inserts by hand a cap screw and a nut between the cap head and the insert will make a world of difference.

Thank you kindly, I got the extrusion, but where did you get/what are the rollers called, can’t for the life of me think of what the name for that part actually is.

Ah my bad i forgot to mention it in the thread.
It’s a conveyor roller.
Gracias
De nada
Thanks for that, I hadn’t seen it before and now I won’t be able to unsee it…
That looks good.
680 should be perfect… let us know how it goes… I haven’t tested 680 as I told you… I had a high-temp, high-strength epoxy available and used that… secondarily I’d have used 680 or 648 locktite…
Just curious how you managed to tightly screw your can cap and motor can together tightly?
I made a fixture to tighten the assembly as tight as I physically could once the epoxy was installed properly,
@MoeStooge did you leave your giant balls of steel in there or are those Mario’s? (Looks like you let him borrow your leathers)
@Arzamenable has one glance and is like “damn, can’t compete”
Mario was in my gear. I jumped on Brad Millers board last minuite after Noah Lickhaulter backed out.
It was honestly a huge pain in the dick. The bottom of the stator sits on a bearing and is super easy to fuck it up and not have it thead on correctly. I was super scared doing this as loctite 680 dries fast af and I could have easily fucked myself if it dried before it was threaded on fully.
What I did was get the first thread in and kinda spread out the loctite evenly then threaded the can on.
but how did you get the threaded cap butt-ass tight?
by hand?
My hand
Pretty sure I have carpal tunnel now
I have faith it will work if you cleaned the threads really good and wait for the locktite to cure!
Ever find out what was causing your motor to lock up?
Are those cigarettes?
Oh table mat I see
