Hey, thanks for the responses. I learned something today!

Thanks unslow1. But what is a type H fuse used in?

Went to an estate sale and purchased an Equipto cabinet with about 30 small drawers. Have been cleaning out and seeing what I purchased. Many drawers of hardware made up of screws, nuts, and bolts. I found this box of fuses and have no idea what they would be used for. It seems that who owned...

THANKS! Everyone who gave their input. I finally got to set the blade and SWAG table up. I did get the foot pedal and that makes cutting easier. I think I'm going to try the Lennox and then possible the Olson. Let's get to cutting and making stuff!

Just purchased this Milwaukee porta band and had a question on blades. What brand do most of you use? I'm going to be using this with the SWAG holder for cutting some materiel. Mostly 16 gauge sheet metal and light bar stock for some small projects. I was also wondering if wood cutting is OK...

OK, after looking I found a used Craftsman Industrial 230 60 gallon single stage unit. After taking in all the GREAT input everyone gave I came to the conclusion that the one I wanted to purchase was maybe a bit much. I know you should go larger if you can but right now with the economics on the...

OK, so you were able to confirm the specs in person. I doubt the consumer grade Quincy will be much better. Personally, if it meets your budget I would buy it. It is made by a fairly large company so parts down the road shouldn't be an issue, and compressor parts are rarely needed any way. And I...

I saw this compressor on the floor at the store. The specs on the tag attached to the compressor are what I saw. I think I will pass on this one and keep looking. This is just for home use, no heavy use here. I ran that small bead blasting cabinet on a 30 gallon oil less unit. THAT WAS ANNOYING...

YUP, that's it. The description says 80 gallon but its 60. What do you think of this unit? I was looking in this price range. I think I was looking at the Quincy, which was about $1400 so that one is on the lower end of price range.

I have been looking for a compressor in the 220/230 single phase dual stage style for some time. I happened to go to my local Cal-Ranch store and saw a descent priced unit but do not know the brand. It's a Black Diamond 60 gallon stand up 230 5hp dual stage for $1200. It says it's US made but...

Found this brake/shear/slip roller 20 gauge made by Dayton on Craigslist. Guy had it for $80 but I figured I'll offer $60 if it worked and didn't have any magor problems. Get to place ask "what the deal" is with selling it. He tells me that he helped a friend clean out his storage unit and...

Let me get my grubby hands on those!

Great work.

Going to work the other morning found this in the road. Almost kept going and turned around and said " No, that can't be!" Didn't have time until today to check if it runs. Started after cleaning the plug and works pretty well! I'm not sure if it takes two stroke oil so I thought I would post...

I'll watch for what you are going to sell. Do you think there might be a engine crank for my 29 A in that pile?
