Re: Another KAT on the prowl
 

i put plastic bushing at many of the metal-on-metal moving parts. The table rotates good and all the movements seems to be moving smoothly. I didn't run the pump full open on the test setup cause i didn't clamp the hoses, but everything seem to hold up and no leaks. I now have to rearrange some of the electronics so everything fits. Then its time to break everything down and prime and paint.

Hey rob do you do laundry? In all your builds they seem to end up on the washer and dryer.

Re: Another KAT on the prowl
 

That just cracked me up!

Re: Another KAT on the prowl
 

Thanks, took a minute to get that brass block hot enough and then to keep all the tubes in place.

Re: Another KAT on the prowl

Looking good rob what do you of the pump so far?

Re: Another KAT on the prowl
 

After getting all the helpful info from the fellows, i was able to figure out how to set the pump up. So far i am happy with the setup. The valves hold very good.
