    Decided to play around with a welder...

    One thing to remember is with MIG you want to push the wire...IE the wire is in front, leading the puddle and with ARC you want pull the puddle.

    Thread on what can be accomplished in a small Garage

    I didn't get any popups when I went to the site.... Maybe it was from the pornsites that you went to before you clicked that link :thumbup: If you don't go to those sites do you have any teenage kids in the house?

    Best type of wall paint...

    High gloss on the ceiling will reflect more light downwards. Semi Gloss will probably do a good enough job for the ceiling, but I would definately use high gloss for the walls just for the fact that they won't scuff as easily and you will be able to keep them fairly clean. I do suggest that for...

    Inexpensive Paint Storage

    Here is what alot of the guys around here do. Find an old NON-working Refridgerator, drill a small hole in the top to run a wire through. On the inside mount a single light fixture, and use a 40 watt bulb. Make sure that you put an external switch on it so you can shut the light off during the...

    Weimer's Garage

    Not much to look at, but it is a working garage. I am in the process of drywalling and building cabinets at the time. I work in there all year round, and have a nice little wood burner to keep it toasty, but this year I decided to try to keep some of my heat IN the garage. So the last couple of...

    What Kind Grinding Wheels are these?

    Like these? They are called a 'flap disc' you can get them at any autobody supply house, and other places like wal-mart,home depot, lowe's etc. Ebay has tons of them on there also. They are about 2x the price of a normal grinding disc, but last about 10x longer. Later, WEIMER

    Some Garage Heating Ideas

    I heat my detached 2 1/2 car with a woodburner. It takes about 20-30 mins and you forget exactly how cold it is outside. My garage is insulated but the ceiling is still open...I just bought a bunch of drywall to finish off the ceiling to help with retaining the heat. Normally I get a couple...
