    Questions on adding a subpanel

    Thanks guys! One more question.....the heater instructions say that it will draw 20.9 amps on the high setting. What size breaker should I buy for it?

    Questions on adding a subpanel

    Not sure exactly what you mean by location, so I'll answer both things I think it could be. I'm located in PA in case code varies by state. If that isn't what you meant, my main breaker box is in the basement and I have the wire running across the ceiling to the garage. It's an attached 2 car...

    Questions on adding a subpanel

    Hey fellas, Tried to search, but didn't find anything. My apologies if this has already been answered. Currently have 50 amp breakers in my main panel in the basement feeding the welder receptacle in the garage. What I'd like to do is add a subpanel where the welder receptacle is now...

    TSC JobSmart Blast Cabinet Modifications

    I was actually thinking something along those lines, but might make a second gasket out of fish tank (surgical) tubing.

    TSC JobSmart Blast Cabinet Modifications

    Bringing one back that's been dormant a while. Just picked up this cabinet and it has changed since the original post. The feed is now at the bottom and the bottom is a 4 sided sort of funnel shape kind of like the mods shown above. Only problem I've encountered so far is the seal at the door...

    Problems with my Epoxy Coat lifting.

    I'm pretty much limited to hoping a touch up works for now. At least for a few years, until both my kids are in gradeschool. Retfr8flyr, nice to hear from another airplane guy! My first solo was in a Piper Tomahawk (PA38-112)...that's where my username came from. I went to college flight...

    Problems with my Epoxy Coat lifting.

    Dang......figures. I was hoping to hear that I could fix it but had a feeling that was gonna be the concensus. It's gonna be a while till I have time to redo it. Am I wasting my time trying to patch it in the meantime with the kit they sent me? Retfr8flyr that looks awesome! That's the...

    Problems with my Epoxy Coat lifting.

    Here are the pictures. Also noticed today that on all the larger flakes there is a sandy substance on the bottom. I suspect that's the concrete coming apart.

    Problems with my Epoxy Coat lifting.

    No primer........didn't realize I needed it. Probably would have been a good idea. You know what they say about hindsight!

    Problems with my Epoxy Coat lifting.

    Yes. I did a vapor test and it was ok. I'll try to get some pics in the morning. As far as prep I followed the instructions. It was a bare concrete floor so I didn't grind or anything, but if I recall correctly I thoroughly cleaned, acid etched, rinsed very well and swept it real well after the...

    Problems with my Epoxy Coat lifting.

    Let me first start by saying that I'm very impressed with the product and extremely satisfied with the customer service. Pretty sure the problem is with my concrete but could be my application as well. The problem is that areas of epoxy are peeling and chipping away. Mostly high foot...

    Harbor Freight MIG mods

    Cool! Thanks! Is that just a cap on the feed motor or do you have to add the extra rectifier to stop wire feed when you let off the trigger? Also is there a way to dial down the output lower than Low 1? Ideally, adjustable instead of a switch like with a potentiometer......

    Harbor Freight MIG mods

    Hope I'm posting this in the right spot. I have an older HF MIG 131. I'd like to do the mods I've been researching to smooth out the feed but everything I've seen seems to improve flux core use. Also output seems to be increased. I'd like to smooth out the feed slightly and NOT increase output...
