As somebody that has to use RFID badge access on many doors daily, I would go that route for several reasons. First, easier to manage as mentioned you can just add or remove somebody’s access. second, if you have to stop and press a code every time you go through a door, your losing time that...

Many years ago I had a basement shop for woodworking in a house that I rented. I remember dust control being an issue that made its way into the main house upstairs both via foot traffic carry up the steps and via the HVAC system. I much prefer having my shop detached from the house for that...

Adam Savage from myth busters does some shop organization videos that I like. I get to use my tools enough to have a bunch of them, but not enough to know the location of everyone’s place within a millimeter like my Father did. So I don’t like having to open three drawers looking for every...

Also considered that, but would prefer to keep possible leak points and cost down, so if I can find a single oil cooler that would be preferred

Looks like the Hayden may be just what I’m looking for they have several with the 12AN ports Thank you Duke

I’d rather not restrict the flow between the pump and the head significantly

I have been watching videos on YouTube where people are putting the Derale 15300 oil Cooler between the pump on their air compressor and the tank to cool the air from close to 300F at the pump down to below 100F at the inlet to the tank. unfortunately the derale 15300 has 8AN connections which...

The one I was looking at is a commercial unit with 7.5hp 3ph motor, by the time I got a vfd and dealt with oiling and cooling, it sounds like it may not be worth the effort

I know there are several people that have used car ac compressors to compress air with varied success, and I’ve seen a few air compressors made from refrigerators. I am fascinated by the idea of scroll compressors as found in some refrigeration devices, and am wondering how adaptable they are...

I’ve spent about an hour looking all over this thread for pics of the snap on hinge mod Older posts have lost pictures and I can’t seem to find any pictures in the newer posts. I have 2 of these carts, and as expected the one with less use has gas struts that are getting weak. Duke Finally...

Pull the lock, measure the barrel and depth, and order a replacement from amazon. I did this and have several boxes converted to the same tubular key, be sure and get a set of 4 if your doing 1-2 tool boxes, that way you can just pop one on anything else you get. The other option is called a...

Could you PM me his contact info, I'm in the Tyler area and may be in the market for one. Duke

I'm in the Tyler area about 90 miles east of Dallas. Soil is very sandy with clay or red dirt anywhere from a few inches to a few feet down. Falcon I like the definition of 'barndominium' There's a tree on one side of existing slab that I'd rather not cut down, so building pole barn with...

Bought a house with a few acres outside city limits, and am researching shop builds. There is already a 22'x32' pad with footings and nothing else on it, that's smaller than I want to build, would like to go at least twice that size to 40' wide and 30' deep with 12-14' sidewall for some...
