    Fordkid's ADHD Fabrications

    Request from a buddy at work. I regret not doing a double flange setup on it, forming and making it a cool light box. Maybe on the next one.

    Who has an off brand multi process welder plasma cutter?

    I have the power ultra 206pi. the hand torch had to be replaced with very little use. I should clarify, it's the plasma side that's lack luster. Once in a while the arc sputters out and blows the electrode out or the arc lags and takes a couple of seconds to start. The on onboard pressure gauge...

    Air drying system questions for your air compressor.

    30 feet sounds reasonable, wouldn't take much to come to that length. I'm Thinking of doing 1" lines but I need to do some research on pressure ratings. It is, it's just hard to see. I have a cut and formed bracket. Now that it's finalized I'm got to throw in a gusset or two and solder a link...

    Air drying system questions for your air compressor.

    No problem, no offense was taken. These are pressure vessels and not something to messed with. I've welded plenty of stainless steel for air lines and steam and I still dont like it. My main reason for keeping the shroud stock is that my wife and little guy are in the shop all of them time and...

    Messing around in the shop whenever I could get a few minutes. Got some paint sprayed. Made some new things for the shop. Can't wait to do secret Santa this year. Added a cooler between my pump and tank on the air compressor with moisture trap. I love home when the pump kicks off and the...

    Air drying system questions for your air compressor.

    Thanks for the input, you're not bursting my bubble. My initial idea was to go that route, but my compressor has that really crappy plastic shroud so between whole lot of extra fab work and messing around to mount it close and maintain a cover of some sort I went the easy route and did this. The...

    Air drying system questions for your air compressor.

    Im starting to do a multipart air drying system for my air compressor. I'm almost done with stage one I'm just waiting on 4 more fans and a 12v power supply but I have a radiator plumbed between the pump and the tank with a moisture trap right after the radiator. That seems to have made a major...

    Whipped this bad boy up, almost scrapped it but Meleon's advice saved it. One of stars touched the materials so my cutter **** out and the very top star had a hidden line so sheet cam thought it was and outside profile versus inside. I recut a modified file that fixed both stars by making the...

    Fordkid's ADHD Fabrications

    Well, I've made some money making Milwaukee themed storage. I must say, "Damn it feels good to be a gangsta". I did run into some issues tonight that I knew I would run into sooner or later. My torch would drag in the material from warping and not cut and essentially skip that part. I'm not...

    Fordkid's ADHD Fabrications

    I've been busy at work, who would have guessed. I found a cheap machine torch and made that work. I've got the water tray going. I still have to finalize the cable chain mounts. The only real issue I have is I cannot get the limit switches working including the e stop. I'm gonna reach out to the...
