I am thinking of setting up a system where we bore the holes and weld in the
SS tubes for you.

We need to do ten at a time to reduce the set up cost.

If people send me their rotor housings
I will save them until we have ten or more and then have the work done. You
will need to label your rotor housings with your name and address and the
date before you send them to me.

In the meantime I will publish the number I have accumulated in hand so
people will get an idea when theirs will be shipped back to them. You pay
shipping cost to and from. If six months goes by and we don't have ten I'll
ship your rotor housings back to you if you wish.

You use a die grinder or small drum sander to finish the weld to your
satisfaction.

What do you all think?

I'm interested.  I've got 3 ports from a 20b.  I know of two other friends
that may be interested.

I may be interested if I know the price.
C. Smith


As soon as we get some interest I'll talk to my bud about price. My guess is
about $150 each but that could be high.

I'll say a go if that's +- $50 ball park. Could I get a credit for supplying
my own ST tubing? Bought some already.
C. Smith


You could send me the SS tubing and I will put it in with the batch I would
have cut on the NC mill. I intend making up a bunch of the short SS tubes
contoured to fit the inner wear surface on an NC mill. That would cut the
time needed to hand fit this part to the inner wear surface contour.

Send to light speed?
C. Smith

Yes. Care of me. Somebody is at Klaus's hangar everyday so UPS
comes on a regular basis.
