I'm trying to recreate an old family photo later this summer and needed a single shot break-action. This beat up old Stevens in .410 fit the bill.
Before dumping it in the electrolysis tank 
After electrolysis tank and a liberal application of MAP gas 
I'll probably replace the stock & broken pad. The stock was split in a few places and poorly repaired decades ago and the grip area around the frame appears to be painted epoxy. |

That far exceeds any damaged engine parts I have. I guess I've been lucky with cracked pistons, tulipped valves, holes in valves, turbo center section blowing into a few pieces and a turbo housing cracked nearly all the way through.
Exploding turbo was an interesting experience. My turbo blew as I hit 20lbs of boost as I entered the highway heading home from LVD. With all the noise and smoke, I was certain I blew the motor. During tear down, I found the tulipped valve. As I put the head on the table, my neighbor asked if the turbo is suppose to do that. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Andrapos:

I've pumped these gloves in here a few times. I have no affiliation with them but I am a diehard supporter of these guys and I know we have a lot of good hard working guys in here. I won't even bother buying gloves anywhere else. These guys are to gloves what Chippewa or Redwing are to boots, except priced better.
They're running a Father's Day sale, some 25% off. They are already reasonably priced for the quality you get, anytime they run a sale it's worth looking at. http://ironclad.com/all-ironclad-gloves/?utm_source=Send+Me+Ironclad+Deals%21&utm_campaign=bb94145cf8-Fathers+Day+Sale&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_a9db71d446-bb94145cf8-51863161&mc_cid=bb94145cf8&mc_eid=3bd5309eb0 If you're going to order some, look at their sizing tool on the site. They run exactly as they state. |

Get yourself a Gadsden flag for Father's Day to fly below that one Jeff! Bikerman, that crooked house is AWESOME, Leon yours is coming out great too! I can't wait to build one in the future as well! Andrapos, I recreated a photo of my grandfather last year, those are always fun projects. The first piece of the puzzle came out great though, nice job! I'll try to post the two photos later. |

If the Aldi flags are some Chinese junk I am not buying but won't know until they have them in the store. |

In the 90s my buddy and I were thinking of ultralight aircraft but we never did get into it. That is about as crazy as I would go. You have a brass set of balls to strap a propeller on your back and hook up to a half a parachute and "fly" around. Make some videos as it looks cool but no way I am nuts enough to try it. |

It's pretty safe actually. You are hooked to an inflated parachute 100% of the time. And it only has 1 job. It's to not collapse. If you get a good one you will be fine. The motor provides the thrust to maintain level flight and climb in altitude. If it dies you just float down to the ground. Hopefully not over water...
I just finished my third and final heat cycle of the motor. It's ready to fly as soon as my wing arrives.
