Welcome to GJ from Buckeye AZ.

Great to here that your not lurking anymore. Have fun with the build and nice to see another add to the GJ family. Hello from AZ.

Thank you very much for all the information. I will need to use heat to get most of this piece of machinery apart so I might as well use it to burn off some paint. This Iron worker has been neglected and over painted with all different types of material so this will be a real chore. Thanks again

Looking for some suggestion on paint removal. I have a blast cabinet but I am trying to avoid using it. Also, Parts are way to big to sonic clean, Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Any updates on what's been going on? Sat down and read the whole thread. Awesome:thumbup:

I recently acquired a DVORAK Little Scotchman 812. Does anyone have any information on this? I have searched but I cannot find anything. Any kind of information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You can always just thin the mud down a little and roll it on with a heavy nap roller. Then while it is wet take your 12 or 16 inch knife and pull off the excess mud. I have done this many times and it is easier on your body. Use a 9 inch pad with at least a 1inch nap. Lamb skin not synthetic...

I agree completely. I have hung alot of sheet rock and that is a waste of money. When you tape those joints, they will crack. There isn't enough backing there to keep the rock from moving.

Re: must have tool Multimeter, vise, safety glasses and a camera. Not the most obvious choices but they have all saved me plenty of times.

The way that Outlaw described is great but make sure your drywaller does a good job. Level 4 or 5 on the walls. The high gloss paint will show every imperfection in your drywallers work.

I also have one that was my Grandfathers. I don't use it anymore but I will never get rid of it.

I agree. Would not be my choice to spend my time.

Those chairs are beautiful! There is so much craftsmanship in all the things you build. Awesome :thumbup:

That's a great idea if you want to be trapped in a forever Honey Do List! :lol_hitti Nice to have you here and it sounds like you have my dream garage. :thumbup:
