    Napa Handyman 38-319 Welder

    I determined that at a cost of $100-$150 more than the used garbage I will get a new machine. granted the bottle will cost an additional $130 for a new one off of Amazon it will be safer to use and easier to fill locally. With the machine in the link above, what size tank would you suggest?

    Napa Handyman 38-319 Welder

    I have called a few welding shops and friends that weld often and decided not to go with either of these. In fact I am going to buy a new Hobart from Northern tool and equipment and run it on flux until I can afford a bottle for it. This is a little above my budget but it will be a much better...

    Need Help with Flooring on Plywood

    My opinion for what its worth is that snow mobiles especially with the wear rods are going to be destructive to most any flooring that you will put in there. As far as a motorcycle or quad I think you would have good luck with a quarry tile or porcelain tile for the flooring. With there...

    Napa Handyman 38-319 Welder

    That may be the ticket, I didnt think of calling the welding shop first and saving a poor investment. I got on the idea of I must buy a welder when in class tonight and have been relentless about it since. I may have to pitch to my old man that I will buy the welder with my budget if he gets the...

    Tool Box ID Help

    I have no reason to doubt you, I ma ignorant when it comes to the model #'s unless it is right in front of my face. I was able to pick up the side locker and craftsman middle box and they have made a nice addition to my "tool box wall" in the garage. I just might have to wheel my motorcycle...

    Napa Handyman 38-319 Welder

    Would this make for a much better deal? I would have to pay cash for it compared to trade but can then use my gift cards to buy accessories for it off of amazon http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/tls/3851052620.html

    I was in class tonight browsing the internet and came across this welder, and was wondering if anyone has any additional information on it? The seller is open for trades in the form of a Devilbiss FLG3 and or a Graco Mini HVLP spray gun. DO any of you have any input on the deal? I am a welding...

    Give me hell!

    Re: Give me hell!! I dont live all that far away from you, and if you need someone to come with a truck and trailer for "donations" just let me know haha. I think you could have one hell of a garage sale after you determine what you can stand to part with.

    Tool Box ID Help

    I picked up the box in this thread last night, and it is certainly in rough shape. This is going to be one hell of a project to try and get everything straight and flat. I don't know if there is a single side that doesn't need dents pounded or filled. 2 of the drawers have slides that no longer...

    Tool Box ID Help

    I called the red rooster in town as they work with paint often, and they tell me that the self etching is hard on spray guns and that's why its generally sold in the rattle cans. The guy I spoke with tells me its a royal PITA to clean a gun after spraying and the acid in the primer can...

    Tool Box ID Help

    Do you generally buy it in the rattle cans or can you get it by the gallon to spray through a HVLP gun? I always seem to have runs with the cans and hate sanding them out. Do you have to mix that with a hardner or is it generally ready to spray if you do get it in the gallon. Thanks for all the...

    Tool Box ID Help

    It has been 3-4 weeks since I sprayed it. and it didnt remove the paint but rather you could see light scoffs from lightly running my nail across the front of the box. Looking back I should have only painted one of the drawers rather than completely finishing 3 of them. It looks like I will be...
