I haven't welded al either with my 110 v, but I get gas for free so I'll try it and report back how it worked out. clarence

i have a lincoln 115 volt. i like it for now. as you grow in your welding ability you will wish you had spent the extra money and bought a bigger machine but as you say you dont have the 220v. i can weld al, stainless and regular steel with mine. you need different gas for different metals and...

i got the bolt bin from acklands-grainger. it is in the current sale flyer. it goes on sale about 4 times a year. i just waited till it was on sale and bit the bullet. glad i did. i was tired of digging through coffee bins to fine my bolts. where i wanted my vac to go, i realize that it is too...

yeah from what i have seen looking for a tube bender for awhile, you would be pretty hard pressed to get a bender that could do that diameter of tubing and still get the tight radius that you need for headers. the only way i have seen it done is like graham said. buy the pre-bent ones and cut...

well here are the pics of where i would like the vacuum to go. and i noticed that i made a mistake. it is a 13 gallon, not 20. anyway, i will take the bracket that the heater is on and move it up to make a shelf and put it on there, i think. where the heater is now i will build a metal workbench...

i am embarassed to show the size of my um.......shop. compared to others on here, mine is like a washroom!! just kidding. ill post up a pic of the inside when i get a chance. inside dimensions are 14' x 22'. i use it primarily to work on custom sleds so no vehicle goes in it. i used to have a 69...

i built one years ago but i made the mistake of using little gears inside a homemade gearbox. the gears were like, 1.5 inches in dia. and a 1:1 ratio. looking back now im not sure what i was thinking with that ratio. if i was doing it again i would use a ring gear or something from a snowmachine...
