    MIG vs TIG - Exhaust ideas

    stainless welds basically the same as mild steel, just different wire (308LSi ,309LSi and 316 wire) and uses a tri mix gas(he/ar/co2). Im almost positive you can use a flux core wire as well if you don't have gas...As far as is stainless worth it..Its definetly an upgrade if its affordable

    Snake repellent......help

    That is the skin of a black rat snake..harmless. As far as repellent,there is none.Snakes don't give a **** about moth balls,sprays or any kind of repellent.It probably just wandered through,looking for food or a warm place to hide.He'll roll out on the next warm day or when he's hungry.

    Marine grade Birch isn't bad(less voids), but MDF is still better. Just remember to wear a mask while you're cutting it, MDF dust is bad ****.

    Painting vintage tools

    I like the look of restored tools a lot. but if im buying used/old tools I prefer them in their worn state.It usually tells me the tool has been tried an tested with time,not potentially flawed/fixed covered in paint.But given a choice between 2 tools of equal quality,one worn looking,one...
