On prob the hottest day of the year so far......

yours truly was ?






WELDING



Fantastic, just fantastic, I actually feel sick






Anyway,

Top half finally finished,
all welded up, brackets done x2 stickers cleaned off,
welding cleaned up, looks a little less "In yer face".....will be better still when painted grey....








And the question ?

Right

Where can I get some of this :




This is only 3 inch, need 3 1/2 ID thought this was so thats stopped play for a while

Cold Beers now Calleth.......

Nige

Thats really nice top job

Another question, where did you get the 3" flexi hose from? I'm in need of some for my snorkel

I have no idea !

Its just something I "have"

How much do you need and where abouts are you ??

Nige

Hey mister, why have you got your exhaust sticking up through your wing?

Sorry, thats what a small child asked me the other day.

In my previous life I found Davis Industrial Plastics to be a fine purveyor of flexible ducting in all sizes. They are pretty good for just about anything plastic in fact.

Not sure how much i'm going to need yet as i'm still designing the snorkel / airbox / pipe routes, probably need about 2 or so meters to get from the turbo around to the airbox, and then from the airbox to the sorkel. I'm in sunny sunny South Wales

Have a measure up and let me know, I'll see how mauch I have, if you cover P&P (paypal ?) and a small drink on top you can have it ?

Nige

Can't you make a reduction collar Nige, or would that interfere with engine performance?

Chris

This Piggin snorkel was a bit like the roll cage work.....



I think I would rather set fire to (wots left of) my hair and put the flames out with a spade rather than do this for a living

I do not know how you can do this every day Chris , ....if I did the screams would be regualr ..and loud

Nige

We use both companies for extraction systems in our factory. I am 99% sure you will get 3ins, 4ins, 5ins or even 6ins hose but you ain't ever going to get 3.5ins hose.

I can send you a cad file with the necessary development 3.5 down to 3ins 3.5 upto 4ins.

Now before you get upset I'll just get my coat.................................

Bad idea Chris - just think of all the health and safety paperwork...

...plus the animal rights protesters!

True

Would be funny mind

Nige - try Hyphose for "Wyrem" flexible ducting hose.

Nige what you doing with a fish pond pump filter on the top of yer truck? and where you getting all these smileys from?

AA Mandy , be nice

Wot smiles ?

u gettin upset

Right hand side od the screen, show all bb code help

Click on 'special smilies' just below

Nige

special smiles! me loikes special smiles!!!!!

Don't know if it is still the case, but RS used to do nice grey flexy hose suitable for vacuum in 3m lengths not too badly priced.

Agricultural sellers are also a good bet.

Si

Just to be controvertial, I quite like the snorkel.

On the piping issue, do you really need it to be flexible? If not, why not use silicon hosing? You'd get better gasflow and, IMHO, a neater final result. Its a bit dear, though....

Nige PARIS Hose and ducting, talk to Geoff last number I have is 01344 758600 they do all sizes and types at reasonable cost.
