|    Pin material ?    |
|    08 Jun 25 16:04:09    |
      From: Snag_one@msn.com               I managed to lose one of the pins that hold the lift link clevis to       the lower arms on my "new" tractor - adjustment turnbuckle was froze up       from several years sitting out in the woods . I made one from some       mystery steel I have on hand but I got to wondering if I should have       used some of the 4140 I have on hand or maybe case hardened it . The       4140 is larger diameter , so more waste . I hate wasting material if I       don't have to . For all I know the piece I used is alloy , but it isn't       marked . I usually mark bought material but found or gifted stock I       don't always know what I've got so ...       --       Snag       We live in a time where intelligent people       are being silenced so that       stupid people won't be offended.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
