Jasic JA140 gets even better.

Jasic JA 140 part 2.

Some of the people who have bought the Jasic JA 140 have said its a great machine, small lightweight and easy to use, not to mention cheap too. 
But wouldn't it be great if it could do Aluminium as well, my answer is "it can". This little welder does have its limitations, of course it does. But if you only want to weld thin Aluminium just now and then, this machine will do it, watch the video to see the Jasic JA 140 Pro, welding Aluminium on the cheap!

Preston Welding Supplies

Preston Welding Supplies is now part of DBT Engineering.

Frank retired back in October and so I took on the business from him. Frank was keen to know that all his customers would still be able to get all their requirements locally, and I thought that the welding supplies business would compliment my Engineering and Welding work quite well and give customers somewhere not only get everything needed for welding but also somewhere where they can get a bit of advice on which gas or how many amps or whatever.

So here at DBT Engineering you can get consumables and equipment for all types of welding.
We sell Jasic, Cros-Arc and SWP  TIG, MIG and MMA or Stick welding machines.
Rent Free bottles of common welding gases including Argon, Argon5, Oxygen, Acetylene, Propylene and Co2
TIG filler rods in Steel, Stainless steel, Aluminium and Bronzes
Arc welding Electrodes for Mild Steel, Stainless Steel and Cast Iron.
TIG an MIG torches and spare parts.
Gauntlets and TIG gloves,Welding Helmets and protective leather clothing.
Abrasive cutting discs, grinding discs and flap discs too.
Safety glasses and PPE.
Wire Brushes, crack detection sprays.
The list goes on and on.

Don't forget that here at DBT Engineering you can not only get a job machined or welded or repaired, but you can buy engineering materials too, we always have good stocks of Bright round bar in many sizes, we also sell sheet metal in handy sizes for those who don't want a full sheet. Aluminium and bronze also available, if it's not in stock I'll get it for you fast.

Give us a call on 01772 821692

Carburettors oval bored.

This is a job that I do on a regular basis for a local engine tuner. The idea is to bore the carb oval, which gives more top end without losing anything anywhere else, if you just bore the carb bigger diameter you lose at the bottom end.

34mm carb

The carb is only truly round down inside where the machining has been done, that is where I find the centre position of the carb.



With the boring head set at 34mm I move the machine 1mm towards the top of the carb.

Then bore though till the cut stops, you can't see it but you can hear it!

Stop the spindle and retract the tool making sure the cutting tool is positioned towards the bottom of the carb, that way there is no scratch left in the bore of the carb.

As you can see material has only been cut from the top side of the carb bore.

Job Done.
