Tube, not pipe. This kind of tube and fittings are used for pneumatics as well. I have them all over my cnc milling machine and an automated bullet casting machine and automated bullet sizing machine that I built all of. It does appear that the blue and white fittings are drinking water safe...

What does bad wallpaper mean? That is very vague. Is the existing wallpaper tight and not peeling or bubbled? If so, I would prime with zinsser coverstain water based primer and then patch with hot mud, like 20 min fast set, sand, then prime again. You could do a test with water based primer...

My garage isn't that big, so a cabinet outside has all of that. It used to sit on a shelf inside and it was oily and dirty. The cabinet is a steel 2 door office cabinet with adjustable shelves. I have no problem with having flammable product containers in my garage or even near my welding are...

My grandmother had a big shed as a workshop. There was a post with a receptacle outside it, like for an RV. The shed plugged in and was still considered movable and not a permanent structure.

Line to neutral is often 277 volt as well. It also is not relevant to this thread. A smart person wouldn't waste time either trying to show off or just picking nits for the sake of arguing. How are your comments helpful or relevant to the topic in this thread? Maybe you should go start an...

This is where I was going, when I asked what conductors were behind that 6-50r and whether it was metallic conduit. I knew that NEC allowed it in the past, but was not sure if it is still allowed, plus some people prefer a dedicated ground wire instead of all the connection points that can...

Damn....6 feet is pretty wide for a cat 330. I have used a 78" bucket on a cat 349 and it was a lot of weight with wet/heavy dirt. About 3 scoops for a super 10 at max weight in komnifornia. 12" is fine. The smallest bucket for the cat 420f2 backhoe was 12 or 18 inches and our yanmar vio 35...

So you want to be vague as possible and throw some 3 phase stuff that doesn't even seem real common (seems data centers use it), in a necrothread that was brought back and is only discussing single phase? How stupid. You should have stated with the first part that it can be done with 3 phase...

So, you actually put your eyes on the conductors, or are you are assuming there are only 3 in the box? The two are not the same thing. Does it have metallic conduit for the circuit, non metallic, or romex? Does it have a ground conductor? The only way you will get a neutral with the green...

A multi meter would quickly tell you what it is....if you had the adapter in hand.

Nema 6-50 does not have a neutral. I'm not sure how the adapter works, unless it uses the ground as a neutral, which isn't great. You would be better off having a 4 pin receptacle to start with. Does the 6-50 receptacle have a neutral run to the box? What color wires feed it from the breaker...

I'm looking at the ceiling, walls, trim, cabinet finish, electrical, plumbing, warped fascias, concrete finishing, concrete cleanliness, lighting color and other aspects, floors, any welds I come across, and everything else. 30 years of trades work in many of the trades (many years spent in...

Looks like I read right over that line and only saw the brand names.....I guess that's what happens when responding while dropping the kids off at the round white pool.

You should have stated battery powered in the original post......unless they have both and you were open to either kind. We have used pneumatic rigid framing, finish, and roofing nail guns professionally for years and found them to work well. Our medium crown stapler is makita pneumatic and it...

Waterborne? That is typically an automotive finish term. Typical acrylic or latex architectural paint does NOT stick to oil finishes or glossy surfaces. I used a hybrid glidden paint, years ago, that was an alkyd paint that could be cleaned up with water while still wet, but it was like trying...
