Ow! and the 3 phase gear arrived in has been installed and is working well, i will start a new thread on that.

I used alum to remove a broken tap from ally, I was amazed how quick it worked, it did turn the ally black in places but it polished off. I got the alum from fleebay. I keep my stash of alum in a safe place & hope I dont need it again!

My supply is back in it's cardboard tube at the rear of a shelf and BIG black letters says ALUM,,,just so it does not get binned.

In my experience, if you have something in stock you probably won't need it, and if you don't have it in stock, not only will you need it, but it'll be hard to find where to get it  :lol:

So on that basis I've ordered a kilo of alum to sit on my chemicals shelf to make sure I don't break any taps or centre drills in brass or aluminium. :ddb:

... Mm .. Most of my work is in steel ....  :scratch:
