Each size has two numbers. That is the max and min measurement for each feature. It means the round parts aren’t actually round.

250,000 mile lifter from a 1991 VW GTI. Note the micrometer reading. Also note that aside from the surface rust, there is virtually no wear.

Parts blowup. (The check ball and cap w/ tiny spring are supposed to be on the right side of the inner piston.) I’m lisdexic. Don’t judge.

A Century S6 “Invincible” split phase perched on my mantle, next to a General Electric 1905 “Pancake” desk fan. The “pancake” refers to the shape of the motor, as they are colloquially known.

My grandfather’s Century S3 16” table fan. I remember this running in my room as a child. It’s been in the family for about 70 years.

Some marked up pictures of an antiquated flat belt drive for one of the machines. This is the arrangement for driving the table past the grinding wheel. (Brown and Sharpe OD grinder)

This is well before OSHA decided that no one had any common sense. Look at all those safety hazards!!!! I can’t wait to fire it up. This will make some really pretty parts.

The adapters I made for the project. The one on the right adapts the M24x1.5 port to 1/4NPT—6JIC. The part on the left has a 1/8NPT port for an oil pressure gauge as well as an M10x1.0 port for the OE pressure sender, with a pass through on either end for a hydraulic hose to the Accusump.
