Subject: | new item for the hangar tool box |
Hi guys,
I just bought a new tool from Harbor Freight that is very interesting.
It's a mechanics stethoscope for $3.99 (sale price) that really works well.
It was originally purchased to open an old combination safe and I realized
the amplification is extreme and when one learns to listen to it you can not
only find tumbler pickups, but you can also detect bad bearings on your
band saw
or your redrive, wheel bearings, distributor, etc. There are probably
a few more things this tool is good for, so it seemed a worthwhile mention.
Fly Safe Guys,

Keep it clean, and you could play "Doctor" with it.

You just need doctor friends. I got one that was left after a nurse got fired and
didn't take it with her.

Gig,
The mechanic's stethoscope is different in that it has a solid probe
that is connected in a way that amplifies mechanicals
and bearings. You can definitely tell if a bearing is running good or
has signs of wear even before it begins to rumble.
