Heres a photo from yesterday. Lucky rain stopped me from messing it up. Today flattened it and done some test peices, but I need more practise

CBR?

Any chance of a list of parts for these? Have a few card tubes I want to replace

It’s basically just 6x 50mm access caps, 6x 50mm tube joining sleeves & 6 meters of 2” pipe from my local plumbing shop.
Each end is capped with a piece of abs cut from a sheet and glued in.

sorry to reply to an older post, but where did you get the aluminium extrusion from? I've been looking at a few websites but they all charge silly delivery fees.

The aluminium extrusion for my router table came out of a skip, but I bought a few lengths recently to make a planing jig. They came from an ebay seller (danniellepaisley) who had a few (long) off-cuts that they were selling quite cheaply. They were all slightly odd lengths, but plenty long enough for what I needed.

Repair this cheap chainsaw
Ignition coil failure , I've taken it apart and fixed it
Also giving a look to the plasma cutter
There's probably the mains rectifier that has failed

About to throw the bottom I cut out of the Sunbeam sump. Has ‘BSA’ cast in the corner.
So cut it out for a keyring

I assembled the back box I’ve been making pieces for. Ain’t it just the cutest little thing.

Worked on the Fimer TP35K during the late morning , this afternoon and the evening.
Discovered few things .
The rectifier could be actually good ,but why not change it?
It miss power on the control board ,so I've put a 12V power supply and it works enough to say me that there are problems .
The relay switch on and gives current to the rectifier .
Capacitors don't charge .
So the fan and the internal compressor work
It shows me that there is a failure .
The control board has a separate power supply than the Power board
There are IGBTs and MOSFETs that provides current to the control board .
On Monday a friend will borrow me proper tools to dissolder the components and I'll start to make the point of the situation .
But TBH it's the first plasma cutter I try to fix and the customer/friend has no expectations
We already talked about replacing the board with a cut 50 and use the solenoid valve signal to switch on a contactor to give power to the compressor .
To do that will be required to eliminate the HF start board because we will use the trafimet s45 torch that is a blowback pilot arc torch .
We will see if I can repair it one way or another
