Re: 30 amp alternator
If you are using a Delco-Remy as shown in @Steggy’s post, (looks like a 60A), you can get a regulator that requires low rpm to excite. Actually, it’s a 30 amp alternator, modified to reduce its maximum output to 25 amps, with the regulated, light-load voltage set to ~13.5 maximum. The reduced-volt...

Re: Energy Rotary spool valve
don’t quite understand the drawing What you are seeing are ANSI fluid power symbols . Ports A and B are the load, P is the discharge from the pump and T is the return line to the oil reservoir (tank). The object below the valve spool schematic is the internal relief valve. If it cracks, it divert...

The valve P/N 10240 . See attached. It should a...

Re: SB chucks rotary table and misc.
You might get more interest if you post about your stuff here, instead of making forum members go to a social media site to read about it. I, for one, don’t do Fakebook, Twatter, Instagarbage, etc., as they are intrusive and fill the screen with advertising and other malarkey in which I have no int...

Re: 30 amp alternator
The way the alternator is physically connected to the V twin. Thanks The alternator is driven from a stub PTO shaft that is bolted to the face of the engine’s flywheel. A jaw-type “flexible” coupling (aka “Lovejoy coupling”) is used to make the connection. I don’t recall precisely how the couplin...

Thanks
You referring to the electrical connections, or the way in which the V-twin drives the alternator?

Us lefties wish there were more tools built for us... Yeah, it would be nice if there was such a thing as a good-quality, left-handed micrometer.

Re: Aquarium Air Pump for chip clearing?
I don’t use air to clear chips while cutting. It’s darn near impossible to get them to go where you want them to land. I do use a hand-held blowgun to clear chips after stopping the machine. Been doing that for as long as I’ve been making chips, which is about 65 years. Yikes! Is it that long???...
