    Is oxy-acetylene welding still used?

    I was going to say. In the 70’s I used to gas weld everything. I didn’t have a 220 outlet for a stick welder. I welded/ brazed all kinds of stuff. They even taught it at the trade school I attended. I have a small welder now, but have been thing about a torch set for sometime. Guess this...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I resealed the hydraulic jack in my HF motorcycle lift. Mixed up epoxy for a broken drawer pull. Sorted out a bunch of vintage camper parts. Looked at all the **** that I have and told myself. Thanks for not throwing stuff away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hello from an old fix-it guy from Maine.

    Just wanted to say hello to all. I am semi retired but run my own “handyman “ business. Very busy. I enjoy making broken stuff work again. Taking old **** and making it useful. I also enjoy fabrication of jigs, special tools and just useful stuff. Been at this since I was a kid. Sent from...
