Another Nilfisk? Yes…some of the best machines I’ve used. Love my ga70 too

Very rare post Soviet , Russian made l3-3 tube analyzer. This is an English version made for export. Definetly one of the last ones made and a good example of vacuum tubes being used all the way until the 90s. Sadly usps beat the sht out of the case but electrically it’s fine

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

Yes it is a literal air shifter / air powered derailleur. Shimano air lines. A short lived drivetrain from the 90s. It’s kinda shit but way to cool to remove. My derailler isn’t working atm but I’m hoping to fix it or just swap the system entirely

Thank you!! Very excited to start working on it soon

It’s definetly the coolest bike I own. Happy I got it. Rediculous geo for a medium. Will do my best to restore it

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Yes! Regulator is busted though so it doesn’t hold any air or shift atm

productive day A very special 90s super bike has landed in my collection (more to come later about it) L3-3 has been repaired. R94 went open and caused many problems. Now fixed and working

Carpets in bedroom and basement. Hardwood and tile elsewhere.

Good choice. If I had the room and if 120v ga70s were common I’d get another

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Kirby’s are awesome. Mine were all ancient though. Had a 513, 514 and a classic iii. You won’t go wrong with one

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

We had a couple dysons growing up but they didn’t survive long tbh. We were big fans of the older Electroluxs. Grandparents still have one. Used to have a Kirby and Hoover collection but was forced to thin the hoard a decade ago. The nilfisk is my favorite machine I own

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Very nice. Only other vac I have is a 1929 Hoover 725

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

I plan to post a vid of the nilfisk soon. I’m no Dyson expert but a very clean dc01?

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

It is surprisingly strong. Woven hose has no loss. 2 stage fan

Yess! Mid 70s ga70 with a gae motor. Runs like a top

Soviet precision and engineering. Испытатель ламп Л-3-3 (1975 l3-3 tube analyzer). Possibly made in Nizhny Novgorod? Can’t identify this particular factory. Works but doesn’t respond to the cal pots. No smoke shows either so no complaints

Thank you for doing a good job packing it. Voltage measurements seem great

A friend shaped French Vacuum Tube Volt Meter has safely appeared on my bench. A wonderful c1959 Metrix Voltohmmetre Electronique 745. Works ok still

The Hewlett Packard beast is behaving. More testing

Need to find a way to mount the replacement caps as they are bigger than the original cans. At least it still works after replacing some of the old ones so far

020

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

1959 HP 122A update. 3 months later mouser delivered parts so progress resumes. Need to rethink some things in regards to recapping. It has made its first measurement with some success I suppose…

I’ve used lemon oil but not in a long time. Probably a bit overdue. It doesn’t get used much atm. Sits in the basement were it’s cool

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

Agreed. We had a few reel mowers and they all worked well. Got this as payment for a task ages ago.

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

106 years of lawn mowing. 1920 F&N reel mower. Works pretty good still. Took it apart and greased everything about 8 years ago. 🧵 @coyotescalling.bsky.social

Cheap norco range saved once again by one up and their amazing dropper posts. Good bye externally routed KS whatever. 2nd one dead and in the parts bin

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Some very interesting tubes. Soviet 6p11s tubes. Supposedly a more ruggedized mil variant of the 6p6s (a 6v6). A tungsol 6v6 for comparison. These seem to have higher qc than the 6l6s that I had. No leakage or gas.

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

A good day for a ride w/ the norco range 6v6 analysis + a strange tag noting international research and development co ltd. Wonder what they were using this tester for Suspicious bike suspension

Good yoting. Have some vcm163 analysis

hazmatdude.bsky.social @hazmatdude.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

It was very well taken care of thankfully. Probably the most complete machine I own. You can download the data manuals online from Franks and other websites. That’s what I still prefer to do. Love these machines. Thank you

Looks like something the spy in tf2 would use to disable a sentry. Looks like another form of a lie detector
