    I read through several of the threads on this but did not find exactly what I was looking for. I just purchased the pipe setup for dust collection system. I am mounting it behind the wall where the tools are. It has hoses that connect the pipe to the tool. I will be running the pipe up and out...

    Poles for the Dewalt 24 v Battery?

    Brilliant Uart! I checked the drill and it only have two contacts so that made it pretty easy to figure out which ones were the right ones to work with. I did my little "tap tap tap" with a good battery and one of the 24v are charging as I write! I will try it on the other two when I can and...

    Poles for the Dewalt 24 v Battery?

    Hey thanks. The batteries are dead. I put the multimeter on 200m and I can get just a 1 to show up as I run across the 4 blades. So I guess the question is here, I dont know that I know what to test when the battery is dead?

    Poles for the Dewalt 24 v Battery?

    Hi all, I have several 24 volt dewalt batteries and few drills that work with them but the batteries are dead. I successfully "bumped" several 14 and 12 volt dewalts back to life so want to try it with the 24's before I pitch them. I do not know the poles on the batteries though. There are 4...

    .75 amp Buffer Motor Replacement

    Hi all, I have built a nice homemade parts ********. It has awesome capacity and runs great. I use motors out of orbital buffers that I have been able to find at pawn shops but have now gone through two of them. I can find the buffers pretty cheap - $15 bucks - but if I could find a higher...

    Shanes BF sandblast cabinet build

    I just finished one that is very similar. I will start a thread here at some point to show it off. I found couple of beaten up file cabinets that were in the trash at church. I cut the side panels off of the cabinets and just mounted them on the back of the cabinet to keep the plywood from...

    Finally, Cabin sandblaster fix.

    I have a very similar nozzel and dont want to mess it up. Did you find out if that is correct? That looks like the end that sticks out of the gun which I could not tell for sure on the original pics. I have very little room to grind without taking on the hole....

    has anyone hung a car body from ceiling?

    Not sure what you ended up doing, but what you described is exactly what I did with the roof for my 69 Scout which is not exactly light. I put some 2x's under each end with eye bolts and then just ratcheted it up with ratchet straps. Worked like a charm!

    I was able to find a video with the exact unit running with a gas motor. Pretty cool! I have pinged the owner to see if he can tell me more on the engine and the flywheel size. Thanks for the feedback. Big help!
