    Car touch up paint process suggestions

    Car touch up paint process suggestions

    New harbor freight welding/fab table 59403

    I've welded up a few projects on it. I like the tabs you lock in the hole to push loose parts up against for alignment purposes. The clamps have been fine. It sits by my garage door and I have seen some rust spots appear on the top from humidity and moisture Overall I think it's still a good...

    So I've been thinking of getting a car/truck lift in my garage....

    I couldn't do a lift in my garage due to the low ceiling and 4" concrete thickness. I was able to find a Kwik lift set up on Facebook marketplace place. This could be another option to look for. It still requires getting down to get the jack under it and the legs down but it is better than...

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    I am using the small furniture dollys under each wheel of this project car with good results. When i get far enough to have the drivetrain in i dont think they would hold up. But for now while doing body and under side repairs they work well. I roll it to the middle when working and back to...

    New harbor freight welding/fab table 59403

    I added the casters and was still under 200 but harbor freight needs to figure them in. It is not going for a professional or heavy duty weld set up but for the home hobbyist like myself it works great

    New 20-30 gallon Air Compressor Shopping.... Feedback appreciated.

    I have the 26 gallon kobalt quiet tech from lowes in my mower shed. It is super quiet compared to an oil less that i had. Its catch up rate isnt bad but filling from empty takes a long time. I only use it occasionally so it is great for that use. It doesn't bleed down unless i leave the...
