I am wondering if you could measure actual dimensions length and width of the Harbor Freight 60 compressor. I am trying to get one that is compact enough to fit behind a door out of the way. Thanks for the help and the review. Tim

just do both problem solved. At home I have a 2hp compressor and air and electric tools. I find myself using electric grinders and cutoffs more than air. I can get away with small compressor so far. I do have a 60-80 gallon 5hp in my future.

Anyone have any rear world experiences with the 2 post Rotary Revolution? I am able to get one at a reasonable price and they are supported where I live. Thanks for your help Tim

I was given a 12ish gallon Craftsman Shop vac for Christmas one year. I use that thing all the time. One of the best tools ever.

my garage is 24x36 with 3 doors. The door are 9wide 8 high. I enlarged one door late after the build to 11'5" So I could get my trailer in the garage. I had an excursion and it would fit in the 9' door but man it was tight. I like the 2 double door idea. I would put 8' tall Door minimum...

most lift manuals say 12ft from front wall for lift. Any real world measurements. I dont have a full size truck right now to put on a lift and measure. Thanks for the help in my planning Tim

12x23 is the bay for the lift. My garage is 24x36 with 3 doors on the 36' end. I am putting the Lift in the center of the 3 bays. The Cut lines are every 12ft and half way across. So far I am considering a Challenger E10 because it has a narrow footprint 10'11". I was just reading...

I have 12x 23ft garage bay I am looking for lift recommendations. I am also looking for where to place the lift in the work space. I have a concrete cut line in the center of the garage at 11.5" I understand Big trucks will be too tight. I am mostly lifting jeeps, musslce cars, small cars...

Does kellogg still make new compressors? I have been trying to figure out my compressor purchase also

Straight argon here. Really clean like was said before. A stainless brush helps cleaning. If you are trying to weld real oilly stuff you almost have to bake the part to get oil out of it.

1/4 plate in the corners 10guage top piece of metal its built Like a bomb shelter. Great for beating on stuff right on the bench tookk

Mine is kinda like trbomax did it. There is foil bubble wrap insulation between the steel siding and the wood. I then put unfaced R19 in the walls and ceiling and covered it with 7/16 Osb. Works Great I would have Drywalled it but Dryway at the time was 2 times the price of OSB. Last Time...

Is that the 3250 rpm champion like I am talking about?

So far in the case of the small champion and Quincy's the 3450 motors don't sound like they have alot of downfalls. I can see the higher rpm being harder on the bearings.

Some good compressors have the 3450 rpm motors Quincy and champion. I have heard people say to stay away from those and look for the 1725 rpm ones. What's the main problem?
