    OT- bait for mouse traps?

    I have used varying size pieces of hot dogs depending on the size of the trap as bait. Pretty effective at attracting mice and rats.

    Can anyone tell me what happened to this jumper cable?

    ^^^^^^^^^^ My vote is rodent damage to the insulation which opened the door for the cable to corrode.

    Table saw - single phase motor burnt out

    In my humble and non-expert opinion, the windings look like toast. I would be looking to have a motor shop rewind it or find a replacement.

    What size tapered reamer is needed for a KO Lee grinder?

    Hi Steve, yes, they are definitely tapered. I followed the advice of Michiganbuck and ground a regular reamer to the proper sized tapered reamer. No measuring just trial and error until I got it right. I have another thread about the part I had to make (hack) to replace the original part...

    Advice on how to make a part for K.O. Lee T&C Grinder

    Hi Ken, Thanks for your input, your insight on clamping a flat bar to the rotary table would have been a big help to me. As I mentioned in a previous post, I wound up hacking a part using a band saw, angle grinder and bench grinder. Not my best work but it functions and considering the part...

    What size tapered reamer is needed for a KO Lee grinder?

    Advice on how to make a part for K.O. Lee T&C Grinder

    Thanks, Bob, I don't have CAD nor the skills to use it if I did. Even after identifying the radius, how would you go about cutting it on manual machines? The outside radius I can cut on the bandsaw but the step which is also has the same radius is what has me puzzled. Thanks again, Joe
