    Cutting aluminum for dummies

    Dont forget a hat for those who sport the Moby :) look. A coworker once got a few chips on his skull that were hot and well let go and the fence busted. They can land on your neck too so you might as well be in a bubble cutting. :eyecrazy: Missing teeth in a blade is for the garbage can...

    Retrofitting Fluorescent Lighting

    Go ahead and Type [LED] in the search box. The Brackets [ & ] must encase the short 3 letter word and it will find what you think you might be after. Dont forget you can also use "quotes" around a specific word(s). :shocking: Example: search "a wet fart" & it would bring up 2012's...

    For those who have a mini-split...

    Basically the weekends to break the chill. Maybe fire it up 3am Sat and by 12 when I get home it should be good to go thru Sun. Small shop within and the metal machines need to be warmed to touch. Not frozen. Nope, not running a gas line across the yard and no LP. Maybe a couple times a year...

    For those who have a mini-split...

    Adding, yet not to hijack the topic... How are they on the electric bill? Thinking of adding one in an insulated 12x20 shed that could use some heat in the LI NY winter temps. Not so much use during summer w/ AC.

    Compressor Q - Timers?

    Is it possible to set up a timer to a Quincy QT-5 5hp compressor? Not up for it running during the night if we forget to turn it off. Would a Tork 24hr timer work like this? Tork 1101 or maybe suggest a different type of timer. Thanks Ronnie

    Sandblasting Aluminum Prismatic Letters

    Sounds reasonable... for the glass that is as the texture to it would enhance the design on other elements I have in mind. Glass beads seem to be it. Will look into that. Well, some of the angles are shallow as they are steep. So it varies. This isnt v-carve style and the normal look or...

    LED panels in garage.

    Sometime in the near future I plan to be flush mounting mine. The driver will go through the ceiling and the light will be wrapped within a slimline wood frame. Looks good on the puter for now. I know, extra work.
