Looking for help. I purchased this Rogers Manufacturing Co “Universal” lawn mower grinder, it was built in the 1940’s, I think. The machine is in great shape, but I really want a manual for it. I have a general idea of how it works, but does anyone know where I could find a manual for it ? I...

I used this one and it worked well for me https://www.hansonrivet.com/detail_wrench-type/

I live in Columbia, South Carolina. I was thinking that I needed an air dryer also, in the beginning. I am not painting, but running a blast cabinet. The compressor I have is only 5 hp and I have a ball valve and an auto drain that runs briefly, each time the compressor cycles. I have zero...

Hey guys, I have a bench grinder with a 1/2 arbor. I am looking for something similar to a drill chuck, that would thread on to the grinder with the opposite end having an adjustable end that I could use a variety of different size shanks in. I want to be able to use a variety of smaller...

Thanks guys, I have pretty much the same thing now, was just looking for a better vise.

Is this worth 35 bucks, is it cast ?

I have the Harbor Freight unit, 2 stage.. It will fill from zero to 155, in 5 1/2 mins, when the pressure drops while using it, takes 1 minute and 20 seconds to get back to 155.. Not a Quincy but it runs my blast cabinet with zero issue

Shark bite fittings is what I used and it works great

Thank you

No he isn’t, but the website has been down FOREVER. Just call the number listed, he is still doing it.

I didn’t even know this existed... I did find a thread where the guy turns a cabinet like mine into a vapor cabinet. I am going to try some other media’s, Although the vapor blasting results are unreal.

My upgraded harbor freight cabinet works better than I ever thought it could, amazing difference, although I have an unbelievable amount of time in it, at this point, but it was well worth it. I am using glass abrasive to strip finish off of carbon steel, now I need a second stage blast media...
