    Polishing bead roller dies? Also, will MB dies fit my pro tools roller?

    Two questions in one post! I just picked this motorized Pro Tools bead roller up off of craigslist for a song and everything works great as far as I can tell, but the dies have a thin coat of rust on them. Having never owned a bead roller before, I assume it's ok to sand the rust off and polish...

    Need help replacing my pneumatic DA, best for under $150?

    My little crafstman sander gave up the ghost last night after about 10 loyal years of use. I don't really use it for any finish work, 90% of what I do with it is strip automotive paint, so a 3/16 or 5/16 throw would be good. I'm currently working on a project that's running a little long in the...

    Anyone heard of or used Audiopipe wiring?

    Thanks for pointing that out. I mainly need to fix the wiring harnesses for the lights, someone in the past has replaced giant sections with all red wires. Luckily the wiring harnesses from the factory are all solid colors (an old C10). Brown, dark green, light green and yellow. All of it is...

    Anyone heard of or used Audiopipe wiring?

    Not sure if this is the right place for this, but I was curious if anyone had any experience with this wire? I was hoping to pick up a few spools of various colors for a few projects I want to tackle on my truck and I found this for cheap on eBay. There are a few things under the hood I want to...

    How much heat are Nylocs good for?

    Thanks! I would think that it stays under 250 degrees even being that close to the pipe. Guess I'll find out! I would replace them with something else but none of the local hardware stores carry metric hardware in stainless and I don't want to order 100 of something else just to use four. :p...

    How much heat are Nylocs good for?

    I bought some stainless brake line tubing clips that came with stainless M5-.8 bolts and matching stainless Nyloc nuts. The clips mount on the frame, but my only concern is that I am running the exhaust tubing on my truck through the frame and the clips will be about 3.5" away from the pipe...

    Offset wrenches?

    Its been a while since I've posted here. Bigger things have come up in life...they've kept me away. Anyways, its come to my attention that I use offset wrenches quite often (never used to) and I am wanting a new set of offsets that aren't quite as cheap. I'm going to try and still see if I can...
