    Whos using a tig button?

    There is a 2-pin connector about 14” long from the button. When you want to disconnect, can just pull it off there and leave the rest of the wire in the hose cover.

    Whos using a tig button?

    I use the tig button. I have one for each torch/hose. I don't use a foot pedal anymore, at all. It is much faster to move around with the torch/hose without having to kick a pedal around. Only downside is not having your index finger to provide support for the torch which can cause some...

    I've had my cart quite full waiting for a 25% off coupon... I almost feel like it isn't going to happen at this point.

    Astro Introduces Large Capacity Rivet & Rivet Nut Drill Adapters

    Looks great! Will it work with an impact driver? Now I just need to figure out how to get metric mandrels for my PRN12 and I will have a fairly complete set.

    One Amazing Fabrication Table

    You can see in the videos some snapshots of his shop before he got it all fancied up. This is definitely a case of someone being very particular and OCD about the look/feel about their garage. Which, seems to be in line with a lot of people on this board. Certainly don't see a problem with it...

    Stainless Steel Sheet Metal Screws In A Vehicle?

    Nut plates if you have access to the backside. Rivnuts if you don't. Sheet metal screws won't handle the vibration/flex that occurs in a vehicle over time. When my company buys substations, the manufacturers always provide a box of sheet metal screws to replace all the ones that fall out under...

    Sick of Motors and HP ratings

    Sick of Motors and HP ratings

    If it doesn't have a NEMA nameplate or an IEC nameplate, it doesn't mean anything and the only guess you can make is from looking at the amps. Even NEMA motors will differ on "HP" rating depending on how the manufacturer decides to mark it. The same exact motor could be a 25 horsepower @ class...

    APEX (Armstrong) Tool Warranty - NOT HAPPY

    Mine does the same thing. Basically, the material around the selector does not prevent it from over-travelling and jamming the pawl. An Armstrong repair kit won't fix the issue and a Matco only will if there is some additional material around the pawl that prevents the over-travel.

    16-gauge 302 Stainless Steel Tables - limited stock - about 75% off

    Second table arrived and it is in not as bad shape as the first table but still bent around the edges in (3) places. Parts were loose in the packaging and it is missing (1) set screw. These appear to be Amazon returns where it was returned without the full packaging and with parts put in the...
