Title: Cheap Ultrasonic Cleaner
Post by: Arnie on December 26, 2010, 07:57:16 AM
I was at Aldi (supermarket) today returning an unwanted gift, "portable hammock" and came across a small ultrasonic cleaner they're selling.  Its only $13 and seems to work just fine.  The tank (cavity) is an oval about 160x180 mm and ~60mm deep.
Just what you need to clean those small parts, a pair of glasses, or your wife's jewelery.  In fact, its cheap enough to buy 2 and avoid "those looks" when you put a feelthy carb in it.

Cheers,
Arnie

So Arnie, you would be a member of the CBMMA (Cheap Bastards Motorcycle Mechanics Association)?

What goes in the other one, sex toys? I know, FJ carbs almost qualify when they work right...

Bill,

No offense taken.  In fact, I'll wear that badge with honor :-)

Cheers, and have a Happy New Year.

I first heard of the CBMMA when I was on the Triples list, back in the days when I had an XS750/850/900 (went through a few conversions and rebores).  My CBMMA number was 32767.

At that price, you could buy 4 of them so you could do all the carbs in one shot!   :good2:
