    Hydraulic Jack Repair

    One of my hydraulic jacks it had oil leaking, probably from a damaged gasket.
    So I decided to open it and try to repair it.
    As I had guessed one of the two gaskets it was broken.
    After some phone calls in the market I couldn't found any gaskets at the desirable sizing so I decided to make them myself.
    I had a suitable piece of gasket paper (Oil Resistant Jointing at 1.2mm thick) somewhere, so I searched and find it.
    I cut a strip and using one from the olds as a model I designed three gaskets.
    I used the first one as demo model to trying my scissors to find the most suitable for this cutting job.
