Planning a build. Need some advice as to if my goals are realistic? I am looking for advice, comments constructive critisism ect... Building size 36x60 17' walls I am open to pole barns, or red steel depending on what I can get at the best price. First the concrete slab would be 36' x 36'...

Thanks Drift, and Unslow. I have no idea why I didn't think of that. Theres a miter saw sitting in the same storage unit. I just wanted it to be some kind of small possibly 6' brake.

Pics

I can't figure out what this is for the life of me.... Anyone care to guess based on the pics.

Holy **** thanks 404 I definatly need to clean that more! I didn't realize all that **** packed in there wasn't supposed to be there! Covers gonna have to come back off.

Thx warrenattor I might order one of those if I cat fin a original thanks farmell I'll check them out. And thanks for the compliments everyone. My first vintage tool. Over twice my age I'm definatly pleased

I'm not sure what a selenium rectifer is illmhave to Google it. But I cleaned up everything I could. I was probably pretty stupid and used the welder multiple times for a sbc jeep yj swap right after buying before even opening the case. Itp was a bit nrvous the first time i turmed it on...

I still need a replacement knob for the striker switch.... No ideas?

Well not that anyone seems interested but here it is. Sand blasted Bigger dents hammered out and bondoed left the small dings and gouges for character. Painted. Clear coated. Cleaned up the face plates best I could but didn't want to refinish. I'm happy with the outcome.

Needed a welder last fall for a project. Ran into this old lincweld 180 with 50'+ leads for a steal. Since im now done with it decided to "restore" it. Any ideas where I could get the knob on front? Stupid question maybe but is there a issue with welding one of the legs back on using the welder...

The footing req here is around the entire slab which is a **** ton of concrete and labor.

Yes the cost of the footings forces a pole barn on anything over 720sf, was responding to the reccomendation to build a large stick built instead of a pole barn. As the pole barn requires no (concrete) footings.

8"x8"

If I go with a bigger stick built (over 720sf) I need 42" deep 10" wide footings that significantly inflate the cost. I also have a max building height of 17' so the 14 foot walls I don't believe would be a option. I didn't consider the doubled tools I will need to make a list and do a little...

I will be building in the spring. I was originally planing a 30x50 pole barn, but I have recently started considering 2 smaller structures 24x30s to be exact. I would like to use one for a auto shop, and the other for a work shop. If I build the pole barn I would put up a dividing wall and use...
