It's a little half assed for my liking but you elaborate a bit and make one on the cheep to give it a try. Lol Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

I have literally logged hours apon hours using pneumatic scalers. No exaggeration, I have spent a whole 8 hours shift inside the mixer of an asphalt batch plant removing scale so we could reline it. It is not something I would use for restoring tools. A Chemical dip , abrasive tumbler or...

Get a cheep crows foot A 1/4 th larger and tack weld a piece of scrap of 1/8 rod on either side of the jaw half way up so it grabs the flats instead of the corners. Kinda like a flank drive or Metwrench. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

Back in 1995 when I started out as a Chrysler automotive tech I bought a Astro AP200 AH angle die grinder off a truck vender that came to the shop. The other Techs scoffed at it and said I wasted my money cause it was not a SO or Matco. I no longer work in that trade but 20+ years later that...

I've had great luck with dry ice for the bearing and the engine case case half in the oven at 150°+ . Cases were unpainted aluminum . Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

A ripper for an ATV! That's a new one to me. Interesting concept, I can see the machine hitch being the weak link. I am picturing a narrow plow with skid shoes to control depth. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

If they will be in a garage or workshop where everything can be ground free of rust and contaminants a small wire feeder would work well for tacking on nuts. Key is shiny steel free of rust. IMO since the bolts seemed to have not worked out I would try something different. Cut off the nut and...

I have two Cat pro lever gun that have been going strong for 5-7 years with at least two tubes a week through both. Doubt they are made in USA sadly. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

I am partial to no QR ratchets, much that the ones provided at work still mess with me a lot, I catch myself trying to pull the socket off ..... duh lol push the button silly. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

The angle iron is the easiest but if you want a real good guide Flange Wizard make some sweet ones. I have the circle wizard. http://flangewizard.com/multi-purpose-chariot-cutting-guide/ Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

I have a Harris torch at home that looks very similar but I am unsure of model number. The guy at the welding supply shop where I buy stuff for my work ( Smith )says it's a good one. So if tips are available locally why not. FyI I bought a rose bud and and it hurt my wallet a lil more than...

That's what I was going to say. Heat gun, propane brush burner, salamander heater are all way easier. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

I still feel a Esab rebel 235 is perfect for him. I myself want one to replace both my machines. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

ARP Fastener's take on it... http://www.rodauthority.com/news/6-point-or-12-point-the-case-for-arps-12-point-fasteners/ Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

The only semi deep sockets I have are 1/4 drive 6 point SO. I rarely use them but when I need them ( glow plug blocked by steering shaft on a 6.6 Duramax diesel) they are a labor saver for sure. I default to the shallowest socket needed to reduce the risk of getting of axis and damaging the...

12 point sockets are for 12 point fasteners ;-) Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

Just replace it. If you want to try and make it last 22 years instead of 18 layer on some more paint. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

Sounds like you need a Esab Rebel 235ic Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

For $21 I'd say why not. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk
