for this part and he said that he needs a model number. I am working on a propane forge for my shop (will continue to use coal for demos and reinactment) I am going by the drawing for the 'stupid burner blower' on the plans page. I am 32yr old new to Blacksmithing (6mo)I have been useing coal in a forge that belonged to my grandpa. Makes for a tough time running in and out tring to follow the steps. And the phone cables are too short to hook up the computer in the shop. Quick question, Iforge printing, have you been having problems? Can't seem too get them to print. The john deere dealer can't help, guys with knowledge of this are long retired. Is there a manual tool,perhaps a hollow piont rivet setting punch,to do this job? My question: How do I peen the rivets to get a good secure fit? The pto clutch plate is riveted to the hub with six 5/16'x13/16' rivets,which I have to install. I am converting a late 1950's john deere 14T self propelled(Wisconsin engine) hay baler to power takeoff. I'm new to this stuff, so I apologize if I sound like too much like an idiot. My book doesn't mention the possibility of this happening, so I would like to know what caused this and what ways can I fix and/or prevent this from happening again. I then noticed to my dismay that the blade was noticably bent about halfway from the tip. I followed the directions in a knifemaking book I have- I heated the blade until it reached a bright red color then quenched it in water. I used charcoal because it was readily available rigged up a hairdryer for my air source. When I finished all of this, I attempted to harden the steel. For my first blade I simply used a piece of steel that I purchased, shaped it with files, belt sander, sandpaper, etc. Hello, I have recently decided to try my hand at knifemaking.
