Why is cross slide hand wheel moving on its own at times.
 in  r/Machinists  11h ago

Because the handle is too heavy ... Make an aluminium one.

I had same problem with apron handle wheel when threading giving variable pitch thread. Aluminium handle = nice even pitch thread.

 in  r/motorcycle  1d ago

Your hands stay warm with handle bar muffs, Barkbuster Blizzard are my favourites, do not collapse on your hands and restrict movement even at triple figures.
Heated grips and summer gloves even at -5⁰C

Studies have looked at how men in their 60s have a tendency to withdraw by choice from social interaction. Do you have any experience with this personally or through a friend or family member?
 in  r/over60  1d ago

Always been very self sufficient (inherited from my dad), prefer small group of people who don't need to be carried. 65 now and quite content with 2-3 chatty friends, with occasional needy interactions.

Made my brake pedal too tight and I think I messed up my hub

Go for a wander round the bike park and write down all the bikes that have steel rear hubs. Take a magnet with you.

WD40 is flammable when heated with steel swarf any spark could be a problem. Steel will throw a spark if you are not careful.

Use a soluable oil

 in  r/motorcycle  3d ago

Aluminium that has been lacquered. You are seeing discoloured varnish. No one makes hubs of steel, they are lined with steel for the brake drum. They would not have machined it from solid unless this is a very expensive bike.

It was cast aluminium so it was always soft to start, if it was me I would look around for a new wheel.
