The worn out metal part, is just a steel nozzle that is completely worn through. You can get the nozzles in metal, ceramic, or tungsten carbide in that order of cost and life. The smaller metal parts in the package are the air jets, they go int the section with the pickup and they have...

John Deere 2 cylinder tractors used clutch head bolts and screws.

What about a medical gas wall outlet? Not sure about the flow capacity and you would need to make an adapter to go to a standard air disconnect. Check out Amico, http://www.amico.com/products/wall-outlets

Use razor blades to remove the bulk of the rust.

I can recommend the Lug-All brand if you are looking at the higher end of cable hoists. We used and abused them in industrial maintenance and they were also used by our construction contractor. They are robustly built and you can buy repair parts for them. I've purchased them from McMaster...

I also have both. My pressure (pot style) blaster is one that I made myself over 20 years ago out of a forklift propane cylinder. It has a deadman valve as Farmall400 suggests. It was my first sandblaster and I still use it, in fact I will be using it tomorrow. I have used it to clean up...

If you want a US made come-a-long, check out the Lug-All brand http://www.lug-all.com/index.php. Their site lists them as 100% made in the US from 95% US components. These are well built units and are repairable, I used them at an industrial plant for maintenance. Ended up buying one, I think...

These may not help with the space issue, if you are storing the deck under the 4 Runner, but I though that I would post it just in case. http://www.moweraxle.com/tractorstands/johndeerestands.html They allow you stand the deck upright and move it around easily, the large mower decks can be...

My HTP VersaMIG is over twenty years old. I have no complaints. - David

I've got some body tools - hammers and dollies - that are Martin. Very nice I would recommend them! - David

That is for a hazardous location aka 'explosion proof' drop light. Those requirements always cost big $$$ compared to non-XP, especially for vapor tight. Not sure about 'the best' but there are several brands that have good industrial plugs and connectors. They will run you about $10 for the...
