I have a lot of parts here I need to report the crack testing on for Geoff.
But I though I would bring this one to everyone's attention.
Sorting some parts out for a customer for spring beaulieu, I always crack test stub axles befor I sell them.
And this is why, it's only the start. I've seem them far far worse.

Please excuse the mess on the bench, it's a result of to much work. And no time to tidy.

This is the magnet I use, it's from a magnetic base to hold a gauge on the lathe.

These are the crack test tins.
I do two light coats of the White for background.
Sit the item for crack test on an angle, and give it a good spray with the black. After the can is well shaken.
Tony.
Well,
I've had a cup of tea.
Gone back out to get on with the beaulieu orders.
And here is the next stub axle, again ive seen worse. But we are now two tested, two cracked.
