CT in 1972 i was in a high school work study program. I worked in a auto machine shop was trained to do mainly all the valve jobs. The dune buggies were big back then , so we had tons of vw heads. I would sand blast them, grind the valve seats replaced many valve guides and seats and lap important matting surfaces. CT I have had many higher level jobs in my life: Tool & Die Maker, after college, Biomedical Engineer, Machine designer etc..but none as fun and enjoyable as that auto machine shop. That vapor blaster you have is one amazing machine..
That crack was almost heartbreaking to see once cleaned. I'm not sure I'd use it bud, but love the vid. Very therapeutic!
Interesting how you do somethings that look absolutely amazing, while other things leaves so much to be desired... Thumbs Up!
Looks great CT. So satisfying to see you blast parts. Wish I had a booth like that.
Love that blaster. It’s def on my wishlist.
Very cool man!! I will definitely have one of these at some point, thanks for sharing brother!
Yes, amazing what today's new procedures can do. Great, congrats. Cheers fm Singapore+
Looking pretty slick 🔥🔥🔥
It looks good CT - but remember that the sealing surfaces for the cylinders are the narrow bands up in the pockets in the head for the cylinder barrels. Those narrow (likely around 4-5 mm wide or under 1/4 inch) bands need to be really smooth because there are NO head gaskets in these old Bug engines. Similarly, the valve tappet cover surface and the pockets for the pushrod tubes all need to be clean and smooth or they will leak.
Hi CT, hope that you are well and healthy. This vapor blaster is an amazing tool, what a difference. Wish i had one, but there is not enough space in my garage. Stay safe.
Great video, thanks CT
it looks new! I think that as soon as I can I will deal with a vapor blaster like yours 🤗
Media blasting is your best friend when it comes to cleaning old parts.
Hey CT. Great video. Hope you and your family are all doing good.
I never seen it done that way before, great video. Sadly the crack had to appear.
Amazing. Good work.
Nice to see you back CT :D hope you are doing well
Great video. Thumbs up everyone
