    C Clamp Replacement Screws

    I didnt ask about price, I asked for a source. A FORGED 12" C Clamp on 1960's vintage that is heavy and quality is fairly expensive. Combine that with the fact that I just dont like to waste things, and I would gladly pay for a quality replacement screw.

    I just acquired some very old large forged C clamps. Google search of the manufacturer doesn't yield any company results. Several have pretty messed up screws. It doesn't appear anyone sells universal replacement screws. All the screws I see are replacements for specific clamps, and they don't...

    The GDS Skunkworks, 4 FN 27's Shop Projects

    Pat, Interesting story. The sad part is I am hearing more and more stories like that where private equity groups come in and buy up companies and run them into the group. Our business deals a lot with food manufacturers and its happening like crazy in that industry. It is also happening in the...

    Flux core vs solid

    Don't forget there is a difference between flux core and dual shield. I run .045 dual shield. It uses gas and has flux in the core. Its an awesome "farm wire" for welding with rust,dirt,paint etc.

    Subbase type for slab - why shell shouldn't be used

    I think you mean shale? As in a soil that is made up primarily of small flat rocks? If thats what u mean I wouldnt hesitate to use it as long as its very rocky and has very little dirt in it. We built a 50 x160 building in 1984 using packed shale for the base. It's our best floor in the entire...
