duct tape!

that's one of those projects by the time you get it designed built and installed/painted.. the kid will be done shitting his pants....and after its used for that im not too keen on using it as the chip table!

ya I cant see the need for a large indexed set, most easy outs are tapered to work with a few common size bits.. a small set say 6 or so would be great, amazon has those irwins but I wasn't sure how great they would be...vice grips are about the only great thing Irwin ever made

was thinking a small set of common sizes and just replace em indivi if they snap... it happens! what brand? usually sets are more reasonable then individual bits

ive been needing a set of left handed bits for removing broken damaged screws/bolts forever...havnt seen any locally...so I checked amazon, most of what I seen is neiko? kinda leary as I hear its harbour freights house brand. anyone got any input, these are just for occasional personal garage...

haha I thought I was the only cheap one that bought the white poster board at the dollar store...

glad im not the only one that got a headache reading that...

I just run my press in its slowest speed, I do a lot of 3/4 and 1" holes in up to 1"plate... I think its around 240 which is even then a bit too fast... when im doing smaller holes or pilots to reach my larger sizes I just run them at that same speed... sure the smaller bits can run faster but...

never heard of anyone doing anything with ironwood. im told it doesn't grow too big and burns as hot as hell though...

think ur best bet would be switching to tig, any kinda vent will pull your smoke out but it will also pull out your expensive heat in the winter months.. I know just burning a few 7018s and the garage has a smoky haze right thru it... in the summer I take it outside as much as possible in the...

soon as I read the head line I thought goo gone,,,and then read that you tried it with no luck which really surprised me... my trick on it is I soak a paper towel with it and put it over the sticker and let it sit for 20 or so..keeps it wet and lets her soak in a bit... ive had great success...

I have a few of the plastic wedcos with that damn accordion spout..i hate it..any place I can get a straight spout like the old ones have?

looks pretty good, I don't see cold welds? I see lots of spatter in that one close up..like maybe your a bit warm? welds look pretty good in that pic, just need a clean up.

check the phonebook for a conveyor company in your area, belts are changed out in industry as they wear down usually still pretty good for this purpose! but usually there heavy as hell... welding spatter wont really hurt them, only if u drop a big red cherry on them do they start...

whats the plan with the rail? welding it to the mild steel? it will crack almost instantly if u don't use a hard to mild specialty rod... Im sure on this ;-)
