So back to the welding for a sec...
I remember seeing some brake pads that had worn through the pad material and on an extend hard stop, the dang pad backings Welded themselves to the rotor!!!
I think this is your entry point, Jack...
And we think we can have an off topic thread, hah!!!

P.S.: meant to mention, Mark, I have a friend that works at the railroad. If that helps any....

I've got some various parts from motorcycles, some off my jeep(s), boat stuff, lots of broken compressors, etc. I should have sold the stuff, but that would take effort. Maybe I should do a "part-in" and put all the parts together and see what it makes?!
Appreciate any advice you guys have to offer...

Hey Pete: how much for the engine for my go-cart??? I'll probably need brakes too -- I'm thinking the friction-welding ones would have the most stopping power. Better get Jack's help on that...

Yes I do think it's going to be hard to hijack the topic.

I've been working on this with my neighbor the last few weeks. It will never see the air again (well ok it actually never did as it was setup for an air compressor to air start other turbines) but it will be going in a land "vehicle". More pictures to follow when the project gets to that point.
