Can you tell me about your printing? I am starting my build and have got my printer ready to go. Did you use the recommended settings? I am curious if I need to use the exact .8 nozzle the recommend.

With my 3.2hp 10.2CFM @90PSI rated 60 gallon husky pro compressor with 100psi line pressre and 26.5 psi into the HVLP gun which requires 15cfm at 40psi I measured 1.82 minutes of spraying time before the compressor turns on again. I have a 50 foot 3/8 hose from the wall regulator into a gun...

I think you can rent a pallet jack from home depot. Either that or a couple skateboards.

What is the thought about having the cylinder mounted above the welder like that?

Not as nice as I would like but it was a fun exercise in flux core welding which I have never done. I always MIG or TIG. It was pushing the limits of my smallest welder. If it bugs me enough I might go back and redo the screw on pivot plate. The important thing is it is very square and will be...

It's weird that every hardware store within like 50 miles only carries silver or black or brown. I wish I could find a can or two in a store! I am wondering if I can mix some green and silver out of a brush on can and make myself a light green or blue.

Saw that but you have to order $25 worth of **** to get that price.

I have a portable bandsaw and would like to refill and regrease the worm drive, but have no idea what type of grease or oil to use. Could I use just a lucas synthetic automotive grease?

I am looking to replicate a hammered paint finish in the light green or light blue common to old shop tools. The problem is finding those colors in spray cans is really expensive as it seems to be special order and a whole case has to be ordered. yeah not gonna do that. Anyone have experience...

I would like to build a small bench shear out of steel to cut sheet metal. I will buy the steel to make the blades and use angle iron and tubing and whatever else I could scrounge around the house and make a shear for not much more than the cost of the metal for the blades. I would like to...

It's beautiful I could sit there on a stool for hours. Yes its packed but its cozy and organized.

What do you guys think of these certiflat welding tables? I like that I can put it together myself and it isn't super expensive or heavy. 2x4 table $259 without shipping. These tables get their strength and level from very accuratley laser cut tab and slot assembly.

Not sure but I don't think I need 1/2" top because I am just a hobbyist not a production shop and I don't usually deal with very heavy stuff and don't plan on welding to the table itself. What do you guys recommend for a budget conscious weld table? I like the idea of having some holes or slots...

I would like to build a weld table capable of using fixture or jig tooling. I have a friend who has a CNC plasma would this be accurate enough? I don't want to spend 400 bux to buy one with the addition of shipping from a company. Failing this any of you guys with experience of having stuff...

This came. alpha TIG 200x
