    Ductless air conditioner benefits over window unit?

    Things are changing. I just put this in my 30x40x14 metal building with vinyl insulation. I am beyond happy. I had it installed in a Saturday afternoon (including framing the "window") for $699 + wiring $100. Has "smart" controls and energy monitoring. The only negative so far is no heat option...

    metal cutting blade on portable table saw

    It wouldn't be very useful to me for steel but definitely for aluminum. I have cut all sorts of AL on my table and miter saws with regular wood carbide blades. As usual don't cut your fingers off, wear safety glasses and everything else is fine.

    ZMotorsports Shop Projects 2.0

    Maybe send them one injector to test, limit your exposure and earn their trust, or maybe prove to yourself they are not standup as you suspect.

    Has anyone ever used a linak actuator without the controler?

    If it has internal switches yes other wise you will just have to jog it with a momentary reversing switch. If it has no limit switches you can use automatic circuit breakers to stop the travel if you oops but not if you are using and on-off-on switch. Make sense?

    Mini Dump Truck Build

    Fabrication around a 9" with a mild steel housing will be much simpler than a 7.5" S-10 axles. Don't listen to the Hummer wheel haters. They are tough as hell and easy to work with.

    Automatic Air Compressor On/Off control idea...

    Doesn't the manual switch lever dump the air when you switch it off. My Ingersol does. The tank check valve holds the air in the tank as the manual shut off dumps the air to the head via that 1/4" copper line.

    Chinese Cut50 Plasma Cutter group buy interest

    If it is a go at 200 then I kind of think we should just pay the full amount... I also think you should have a couple extra units as spares for parts etc. A DOA or early hour failure will really leave a bad taste.
