[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 87341, member: 1523"] 4-20-09 Pump inlet round IV Working on the shaft seal now. Had cutout the inlet with a 2.5" hole saw, then elong it so 'U' shaped piece of metal would sit in and then made a end cap on the mill this morning and finally welded everything together and mocked it in place. Notice all the metal dust on the rag in the first picture... Lots of grinding.
