    The Eastwood QST-30/60

    Same boat. I was hoping they were only going up a few hundred bucks but at this price point it's not on my radar anymore. I would have bought one of the first shipment if I had known it was going up this much.

    Snap on losing their minds? 1/2” impact

    I'm the biggest cynic you'll ever meet and don't believe in anything I can't see with my own eyes. I've done it on multiple occasions. It works. I can find a water pipe in seconds. I've done it with my eyes closed, looked the other way, no matter what I have tried the rods cross in the same...

    Do you carry a pocket knife?

    Sometimes I'll leave my pistol at home but I never leave my knife. I'm using it right now while at work. Southern grind bad monkey. Absolutely love it.

    11th annual GJ Secret Santa!

    My SS did a really deep dive and did amazing. I think I've only talked about my love of fishing in 1 or 2 threads on this board but if I had my way I'd be fishing every minute I wasn't working. I've always wanted to play around with casting sinkers too. This gift WILL get used. Thanks! And the...

    Cnc Plasma table

    Build it yourself with Precision Plasma llc gantry and CandCNC electronics. It's the best way to go if you don't have a lot of money.

    Mine showed up today. No tree at our house this year so I took the liberty of making a tree out of metalcast for the pic. :D

    11th annual GJ Secret Santa!

    Due to time constraints (Read: dragging my *** again) I shipped my bounty direct from Amazon again this year. At this point there's no way I could get the items here and then rebox and ship again. My target was a little tough this year. All he does is shop evidently. lol There will be 2...

    Pipe under slab.

    At 20' I'd just find an underground contractor and have them come missile it. If you can find a utility contractor working nearby they would probably do it for a few hundred bucks. A directional bore would be best but it would be a bit more expensive. Any crew that has done it a few times should...

    Grease or Antisieze - Hub/Rotor

    Wheel bearing grease in the hub and nothing at all on the rotor. If you grease it the grease will get under the brake pads and contaminate them.

    Plasma Cutter - Pilot Arc or No?

    Definitely with pilot arc. The pilot will vaporize any paint or rust on the surface so the torch will light. Also recommend Hypertherm if you can swing it. My PM65 makes me money almost everyday of the week. Just have to feed it a nozzle and electrode every few weeks to keep it going.

    Powder coating over chrome

    I was doing them a solid color so I blasted the **** out of them to make sure I got good adhesion. Worst thing that can happen to you on a small part like that is you have to strip it, lay down chrome powder and reshoot it. I would give it a shot. Just clean it really well and give it a good...
