Default H/F vibrator, heads up.

Just a wee plug for H/F , Bought their large vibrator cleaner a couple of years ago , Its a magic way of cleaning small stuff. Add water , bit of detergent , put all your rusty bits in , nuts & bolts, etc , set it going for couple of days & they come out like new, a quick rinse & spay with wd40 . you can inspect which parts are good & which are junk, The detergent cleans the grease off too. Try it you won,t be disappointed.

I'd have bought lots of stuff from the US over the years but they are only 110 volts.

On another note to rust....try Krud Kutter "A must for rust" gel. Amazing what it can do and be painted over after drying without rinsing first.

Synchro909, Yes 11o v, but if two phase like my plasma cutter its 220 volt , just change the plug, Interesting on 110v I run a large tranny works good, Also work safety have no derestriction on 110 v here, so no electrical inspection on gear , cords etc, I can tell them to fly off, 4.5 angle grinders paid $9 etc Paul got a power hacksaw about $150 ,$650 kiwi $$$ was up

110 is one phase to grd and two phase is two hots, each one 110 to grd. So changing the 110 plug will just burn it up.

I have hf larger sonic cleaner, works wonders! Fill with 50/50 of simple green, turn the heat on, turn the sonic portion on for 5 minutes and grease/ oil just comes off. Rinse it hot water and easy paintable surface again.
