Hose reel seems like a good deal at $53. Is the 20ton press cheap at $159? I feel like that is usually the sale price Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

Just picked up an SAE set using a speed perk reward coupon, I have a bunch of $5 speed perks rewards coupons in my email, if anyone else is planning on buying these, PM me and I can text a picture for in store scan or send the code for online purchases Sent from my iPhone using The Garage...

Sanborn is still making air compressors and parts availability is still there, I had to replace a head on a black max with a Sanborn pump (a little newer than yours) not to long ago and had no problems finding parts for it. Depending on your geographic area, the price seems a little steep. Here...

I haven’t had much experience with the industrial brands but among all the wheels I’ve tried, I found dewalt offset cut offs to last the longest and I’ve been happy enough with them to not look elsewhere, they run about a buck and half a piece if you are buying them in 5 packs from Lowe’s.

Thanks Matt, It’s an 86 so technically it’s still a k30, I swapped a 12v Cummins in with a 5 speed trans about a year ago to compete with the newer trucks.

You are definitely off to a great start! Unfortunately there is a lot of overlapping tin on these that water likes to hide behind and rot out. I built mine with a similar concept in mind but kept it in a much more stock configuration. Last week I got a little stuck Sent from my iPhone using...

Thank you Cbacres, and that is my buddy’s truck, I will let him know he has an admirer haha. Haven’t posted in a while but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been making progress. Installed all the windows and got the whole building is sided. The overhead door would have been up by now but it was...

Looks like you can get a direct replacement for $140. I’m not 100 percent due to it being quite a while ago but I’m pretty sure I’ve ordered from this website before for the very same issue on a Karcher pressure washer, two years later and it’s still going strong...

Place is looking great! Love the samurai, what are your build plans/specs? Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

Thanks for all the replies guys, I am definitely getting a water test and will clean the toilets/faucets and see how they fair with the softener bypassed. I will update when I get to the bottom of this. Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

I played with it and it seems it might be the exchange resin your speaking of, what would be the next step to address that? Mick: I will get a water test when I get a chance and see, thanks for the advice! Mike: I have not tried iron out nor have I even heard of it but that is something I will...

Hey guys, I’m going through some water softener issues and I was hoping to get some advise from someone more experienced in the subject. I bought my house a year ago and the 20 year old softener (original to the house) was clearly having issues or not being run as there was rust stains all...

When I was in your shoes, I was only shopping the used market but it was between Champion, Saylor Beall, and Quincy based off of hours of reading, quality, and parts availability, I just bought whatever good deal I could find first. Keep an eye out for Speedaire’s on the used market, from my...

I took a chance on doorson-line.com, what I liked about the website is they have all the pricing laid out in front of you as you add more options to the door. They offer just about any size and custom build your door if it’s not a common size. The few reviews I could find seemed good enough to...

Here are some pictures, there is a very good chance this title can be obtained z Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

Hey guys, a friend of mine has a really cool school bus from the 1950’s(?) he’s been using for storage until now. He does not wish to scrap it and would really love to give it away and see it go to someone that would want to fix it up, I’m not entirely sure of the specifics but if someone is...

Thank you, and my thoughts exactly with the room for growth, I may or may not already have the addition planned out [emoji28]

Haven’t made anymore progress on the shop but I did find a deal on a new piece of equipment that was too good to pass up. I found a very cheap non running Skat Trak 1700C in Delaware. It was bought by a machine dealer in a bulk buy and it was not worth his time to diagnose which is the reason...

Thank you for all the replies, it appears as this forum is really the last thing I need as I have already added too many tools to my wishlist just from reading through some threads. I have not made much progress lately but the building is now fully sheathed and roofed as of yesterday. I got my...

Hello all, my name is Trevor and I live in Cape May, NJ. I enjoy metal fabrication and machine work but due to my current lack of a work space, lately I’ve been cutting my teeth wrenching on just about anything with a motor and making repairs to any equipment that comes my way (in my driveway)...
