FYI - I ended up ordering the Hobart 210 from Blaine’s Farm and Fleet $830 including shippingand no taxes for me on it either. Thanks to everyone for pointing me in a better direction

So I can get a new Hobart 210 MVP for $830 all in - shipping, taxes etc from farm & fleet. I’m comparing it to Lincoln’s 180 for about $500 via eBay. Is the 210 worth the extra $?

Not set on anything. Just looking to get a good welder. Based on the feedback here, I’ll be looking at hobarts, Lincoln’s, Miller’s and esab. Thanks

So I’m thinking about getting the following welder. Eastwood MP200i. https://www.eastwood.com/eastwood-mp200i.html It’s about $100 bucks off the regular price right now. It’s near the top of what I want to spend. I’m a weekend warrior, so I probably will never need a better welder. Is there a...

This is in CL locally and I’m somewhat interested. There’s no info in the ad as to what it is. It just says that it works. Ive messaged the seller but haven’t heard back. Any idea what it is?

Really like the double jointed arms.

Depends on the height and whether it's up against the wall. I have three work benches in my shop. Two are standing height and one is sitting height. Two are against the wall and one is freestanding in the middle of the shop. The tall one against the wall is relatively narrow, about 24". The...

Most sellers of shop building kits and many shop building companies can direct you to viable financing options. Most banks dont want to lend for just a shop as the value of the property is in the land. If you default, they're not likely to recover what they've loaned you. You are certainly...

That was for others that might read your post and haven't watched the show. Given that you didn't manage to call the company by the right name nor mention the model of the lift, I figured it would be helpful. Obviously, you know what lift you're talking about.

I really like the lift they use on that show. Here's a link to it. http://www.nussbaum-usa.com/portfolio_item/hl-14000sst/ http://www.nussbaum-usa.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Nussbaum_HDL_SS_101116_WEB.pdf

I went with a Dannmar lift. At the time it was the best bang for the buck. If my ceiling had been higher (I'm only at 12'), I would have done a Derek Weaver as they had a better priced model at the time. Most lifts are fairly similar in terms of price and quality when you're in the $2500...

Looking good. I'm not too far from you in Ottawa, KS. I'll keep checking in on your progress.

Worked for me too.

Standard

The flower shaped ones are tough to deal with. You can start by getting another key for the other wheel bolts. I've had luck on the other style BMW wheel bolts where they have a post in the middle with chiseling out the post and hammering a 12 point torx socket into the hole, but that wouldn't...

This doesn't make sense. There are thousands of people using chinese made lifts daily, and you would never stand under one. ALI certifies hundreds of chinese made lifts, and you would never stand under one. :headscrat:wtf:

Mine came with the booklet found at the following link https://www.autolift.org/ali-store/alilp-guide/ It has a diagram for each make/model of car showing the proper lift points.

These two lifts are almost identical in terms of features. A slight edge to the weaver lift due to more versatile lift arms, lower pad height and higher overall height. I really enjoy my dannmar but can admit the weaver lift has a few additional conveniences.

Also, what Bimmers do you have? I've got a 98 Z3, 01 330i and 07 328i Touring.

Dannmar D10-CX here. I only have 12 foot ceilings. I really like it, but if I had the additional ceiling height that you do, I'd go with this Derek Weaver lift. https://www.derekweaver.com/rodders-garage/2-post-lifts/weaver-w10-3d-overhead-2-post-car-lift/ It looks like the best bang for...
