[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

Yeah, a lot of that.

It’s amazing to me how much (old) furniture comes up on the local FB 
marketplace. I realize it’s just a sign of the (millennial) times, but there’s 
simply no demand for these big dining room sets with big tables with leaves, 
china cabinets, sideboards, etc., etc. I’ve seen some really nice stuff go for 
peanuts.

I picked up a sideboard (think big cabinet that you put your large service 
dishes and stuff in) made by Baker Furniture a couple of months ago. It’s a 
stunning piece made of solid hardwoods like mahogany and with all sorts of 
beautiful marquetry (veneer) work. Baker is owned by Kohler (bet you didn’t 
know that!) and produces some of the finest handmade furniture there is.

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/baker-furniture-historic-charleston-480159397
 


This was a $10,000 piece of furniture when it was new. They still command a 
chunk of change when they show up on auction.

I paid $220 for mine after it had been on FB marketplace for nearly a month 
with no takers. Score!

Re: [MBZ] OT: Life cycle costs for manufacturing waste, recycling for wind turbines

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

Humidity is a big issue in homes like this, even in places like AK where there 
is no humidity. We built a home with this kind of technology for the time in 
1990/91 in WI and we had to use an air to air heat exchanger and dehumidifier. 
Our house had 6” exterior walls with a Tyvec barrier wrap. It was tight.

It was definitely cheap(er) to operate in the winter compared to typical homes 
in that climate. However, you had to be aware of the humidity getting out of 
control. Our next door neighbor, a neck cracker, was very vain and took showers 
like 2-3 times a day. After three years they had to gut and replace the master 
bath because the drywall was destroyed from his multiple daily showers.

I think it does, need to learn my way around this engine. No idea where that 
is, beyond somewhere on the engine, front or rear.

Fuel pump relay / fuel pump is another possibility. I think that relay is 
behind the battery?

Somebody already mentioned it: heat the wind turbine blades to keep ice from

same for fuel pump relay
Same for battery, even though i t turns the engine over.

[G Mann via Mercedes]

Having experienced ice release on propellers while flying, I can attest
that when a chunk of ice hits the airplane and opens a hole in the cockpit
behind you it is a near panic event..
Ice does not accumulate in smooth layers. It depends on the droplet size of
the moisture, cooling, and other factors. Each segment of the rotating
blades is at a different speed, thus a different cooling effect.. plus,
other factors.

Re: [MBZ] Possible Kleb Car

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

Wow, that is pretty nice.  Could probably buy that kind of stuff and 
haul it up here and sell it.

Yeah, a lot of that.

It’s amazing to me how much (old) furniture comes up on the local FB 
marketplace. I realize it’s just a sign of the (millennial) times, but there’s 
simply no demand for these big dining room sets with big tables with leaves, 
china cabinets, sideboards, etc., etc. I’ve seen some really nice stuff go for 
peanuts.

I picked up a sideboard (think big cabinet that you put your large service 
dishes and stuff in) made by Baker Furniture a couple of months ago. It’s a 
stunning piece made of solid hardwoods like mahogany and with all sorts of 
beautiful marquetry (veneer) work. Baker is owned by Kohler (bet you didn’t 
know that!) and produces some of the finest handmade furniture there is.

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/baker-furniture-historic-charleston-480159397 


This was a $10,000 piece of furniture when it was new. They still command a 
chunk of change when they show up on auction.

I paid $220 for mine after it had been on FB marketplace for nearly a month 
with no takers. Score!

Question. My car is a 78 300D non turbo. How fast are yall comfortable 
taking these things up to on the highway? Any point at which you feel 
the motor is revving too high, or do they handle it fine? Pic for attention



Harry Cannonball  Raymond, 
that thing doesn't make enough horsepower to hurt itself. That engine is 
absolutely fine producing 100 % of its rated power continuously. That 
isn't some pussy car for the masses.

Scott Bleggi  You can see why they put 
a 2.88 rear in the 85s. But still, all the advice is good. After all, 
they were designed for the Autobahn. Just don’t vibrate off the seat.

Re: [MBZ] It's raining cheap diesels

[Max Dillon via Mercedes]

If you get that, I'll buy the muffler system if it is not rusted out. I'll also 
buy the injectors and the starter, maybe the mono-valve.

Well maybe I should buy it then sell you the body. Can I store it on your land?

[MBZ] 115 parts car

[Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes]

I just got done looking at this. Sat in a field for at least the last 15 years. 
Floor board rusted out. Fenders rusted. I thought about picking it up to add to 
okie acres for a parts car as it’s worth it for the tranny. Engine might be 
good who knows. I just didn’t feel like loading it up then unloading it when I 
got home.

Yes, you may use starting fluid on a gasoline engine ...

I was going to suggest testing for spark as well -- it used to be easy to
do, just remove a plug wire, put a screwdriver in the boot so it contacts
the metal contact and hold it near some metal.

With the high-energy system those cars have, however, I am not entirely
sure that is how to do it.

I've seen those for conventional spark plugs.  Evan have one somewhere, 
but I don't see how do you use then for the COP system?


You could test for the current going  into the coil.  Wouldn't a bad 
coil show a code?

Re: [MBZ] It's raining cheap diesels

Andrew Downer

I had that happen once with the vw Diesel.   The guy I paid to put a new 
head on the wabbit got mad because he wanted me to pay him to rebuild 
(screwup) the block.  I told him no, just put the head on.   He kept 
saying that putting on a new head would cause it to loose compression. 
   After I ran it a couple short trips, ran it 200 miles and it 
wouldn't start.   No compression!   When I took the pistons out they 
were all gummed up.   He put sugar in the fuel tank.   That was just one 
of his little scams, I found out later.   Obviously I did not take it 
back to him.   I did it myself.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Life cycle costs for manufacturing waste, recycling for wind turbines

[Clay via Mercedes]

The obvious solution is what is done on leading edges of those big old 
airplanes.  Use a good de-icer before take off, then have the expansion 
doohickey engage when ice builds up.  Shed chunks at speed.  I wonder just how 
far you could fling a one pound chunk of ice off the end of a 130 foot long 
blade.  The things are not spinning fast enough that the tips are supersonic

Remember, the speed of sound at sea level is 330 meters/second = 738 mph.

I can figure out how far something with a starting velocity of, say,
500 mph would travel, but that will have to wait for now.

[MBZ] Bosch Starter/alternator part numbers

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Found this trying to find rotor/stator part numbers for BMW R75.   It 
should be useful.   It has supercede charts for 10 digit numbers, 
predecessor charts for 10 digit numbers, 10 digit to typ number, parts 
breakdown for starter 10 digit numbers, giving you the 10 digit part 
number for each part.   Same for alternators.


Also has similar info for regulators, brushes etc.

Unfortunately it does not seem to include the BMW parts as they are 
probably propriety application.  Anyone got a neighbor with a /6 parts 
motorcycle?

Calculation could get complicated, once you factor in release point for
greatest distance and trajectory vectors. However, it sounds like some nice
"math fun"...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mAIy_TUuHk
This link will take you to a youtube video of some folks throwing things
with things that rotate. Just to get you into the mood for throwing an ice
chunk...;))
Perhaps, we could start an industry using old wind turbine blades?

Or 1082.675 ft/second.

If a rotor has 125' blades and say 2' from center to the base of the 
rotor, the circumference would be πD or  254π = 797.964 ft.    So if the 
rotor made one revolution per second, the tip would be traveling at 798 
FPS.   (Subsonic)


If the rotor was 300' Dia.  then the circumference is 942.477 ft.   at 1 
rev/sec. it would be subsonic at sea level, but probably as close as you 
want to get in practice.
