  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

125-200cc Will crimped pipe hurt performance

I had a friend straighten a pipe with water pressure, capped one end and filled it with water making sure no air is trapped in it. Capped the other end and attached a high pressure hose to a laboratory test hand pump. Critical thing is bleeding out any air. Then simply pumping it up slowly and watching as the pipe straightens out before your eyes. It takes as much as 800-1,000 psi but is safer than heating an air pressurized pipe. Water is not compressible so if it develops a leak or splits a seem open the pressure is released immediately, no projectiles or catastrophic damage to the pipe. Absolutely critical not to have air in the system. This works best to restore the shape of a pipe and large caved in dents, not so good on the little stone dents. The pump my friend used was about 60 years old, don't know if they still make them. Also it only took about 3 or 4 pumps on the hand lever to achieve those pressures. If it takes more the a few pumps it means there is air in the system that needs to be bled out. I was totally amazed by the process.
 
I knew a painter decorator that worked in a 3 pice suit.
It was pristine an wore no overalls.
You can wear what you like cant you?
