The only advantage to that 2 stage is the slightly higher PSI, the cfm is not enough for what you want to do and honestly quite a joke in comparison. Go used if you can. If the pump kicks the bucket, the HF replacement two cylinder is great.

I mig on straight Ar every day. Takes a little bit more amps and you need to push instead of pull to keep the bead flat, but plenty of penetration and minimal spatter.

The parts have to go IN the tank. Good luck finding an ASME vessel that is made for casting resins that isn't thousands of dollars Our existing chamber is in a concrete room with the pressure applied from outside and monitored with a webcam. At that size with that little pressure, I'm not...

I only need it to go to 40psi, which is still a few tons of force but not enough that I'm worried about it, especially with a scatter shield. The issue with pulling vacuum is expansion and loss of material + space for it to come out. The way we cast that isn't an option We share the building...

I need to build a pressure chamber for casting resins and it needs to be at a minimum of 3'x10" I've thought about cutting apart a compressor tank, welding on a flange and using an existing pressure pot lid. If I could find some large diameter black pipe with screw on end caps, that would work...

I've used several thousand of the black HF zip ties. I've had maybe a handful of bad ones. I have never used any of the others they sell.

Did anyone watch the video? It has a DC motor, Wi-Fi so you can open close from phone anywhere and has a lifetime warranty. I think that covers all the complaints.

He couldn't weld the whole thing and clamped off a brand new brake hose What a sack of...

I've registered more than a dozen tools and batteries, all with no issues. Just got two new 18v replacements a couple months ago as well

I've been a full time tech for 11 years. I've never bought a tool off the truck

Like above said, they've been like that for 5 years

PVC is a big no no. When we moved into this building there was PVC that had shattered from a stray socket. The previous tenant showed me the 4inch scar across his arm where the shrapnel had torn through half an inch deep of flesh He will be very very sad if something ever happens like that to...

Should have used PL Premium, much better product. Seriously, can't stress this enough. Big enough difference I'd say pull it up and reapply I'd leave it for a couple days

I've put hundreds of hours on my Harbor Freight one

Wiha WIHA WIIIIIHHHHHAAAAA I've owned multiple sets from what I'm sure is every big brand. Felo, Klein, PB Swiss, Wera, SO, MAC, CMAN, Proto and Wiha. I will not use any other screwdriver. Best fit. Best finish. Best handle. Best striking cap. Best durability.
