Hey, anybody out there have any input on a good all-in-one table lift to work on ATV’s/snowmobiles/SxS? Looking to buy one nice table for working on all those things. Any input is appreciated!

As fate would have it, my wife’s car needed a water pump and my truck needed new brake lines from the D-block to the axle…..and I have already sold my lift and heating system…lol. Man, I don’t miss working on the floor in front of a salamander! Hoping this the last repair I have to do in the...

Can’t go wrong with Harman! Hope the dealer is well established with a nice showroom and parts counter. Our local Harman dealer is where I get my pellets and and parts I need, great to do business with.

I’ve been running pellets since 2005. I’ve had two stoves in that time, I run 4-5 ton through them a year. I absolutely love them compared to wood or gas. I ran wood for years, and was on the ***-busting end of splitting and stacking wood for family and friends for maaaaaany years….no thanks...

Hello all, I hope everyone is having a good holiday season! I’ve been waiting to post this update, as the last few months have been a rollercoaster of happenings and emotions. This past summer my wife and I finally decided that it’s time to move. Ironically, we bought our current house as an...

I’m at 35’ wide, and I’d easily go another 12’ if I could. I’m in the process of selling and moving or a new place, and that place has a shop already. Slightly smaller (30’ x 50’) but it’s wide open trussed construction, not a support post to be found! I absolutely cannot wait to be in my new...

I have a hydraulic lift table (similar dimensions w/500# rating). It is a godsend when working on generators/snowblowers and whatnot. There is nothing like having the whole machine at a comfortable working height!

Very nice! What are the dimensions of the table? Lift height?

I do. I have one for welding and metal fab, another for other messy work. It’s much better than trashing tee shirts and whatnot.

I know you mention it’s a little steep for you, but the US General @ HF is a well made box, worth the extra spend IMO. I have the 72” series 2 (predecessor to the current series 3). Great box, very well made.

Near zero benefit going with an HE unit in your case. Stick with the CI boiler, you’ll be fine.

Well….I had some catching up to do! XJ is looking killer dude. You make me miss mine when I see that nice rig! You pick up that trailer? I rehabbed a 16’ 7k a little while ago, primarily so I could move my compact tractor. It is a car hauler too. The simpler the better I say, especially when...

Hey everybody….hope everyone is having a nice fall! I have been putting some thought into compressed air piping/distribution. I like the idea of those plastic pipe kits, but wanted to hear from some of you who have used them….any good or not? For context, I run an 80 gallon/7HP compressor...

Hey stranger! Yeah, the snowmobiling was nearly a dud this year. We got a few day trips in, but it was a bit of a let down…..here’s to next year being better! I got caught up on your thread, saw the new truck! Can’t beat the CM when it comes to room for the family. I had to do rocker panel...

Hey, quick question for anyone out there that has done some brass restoration work (specifically old gauges and whatnot). What is your go-to method for getting the brass back to a nice brilliant shine? I got given a very old chart recorder. It was painted grey, and was pretty dirty inside. I...
