    WTT TIG for MIG

    I have a Hobart TR-250-HF with a Miller Radiator and a cylinder of Argon and I've never welded anything in my life! Bought it at auction a couple of years ago because it was there and haven't touched it since. I am looking to learn and would like an "easier" machine to get started on. I've...

    How Much Space Between Workbench & Wall Cabinets?

    That's what I was planning for the overhead - 16" deep. Seeing your cabinet, if it is actually 16" deep just finalized that decision for me. I have a paint collection nearing the quantity of yours! :) Isn't that just 6'? :lol_hitti I'm wondering, if I'm planning on 31" from workbench top...

    How Much Space Between Workbench & Wall Cabinets?

    Figured it be easier to just post the primary plans and let you guys pick them apart now - much easier than me trying to explain it. The 28" x 28" x 51" on the right floor is a compressor room. Again, these are my preliminary designs (done on MS Excel!) and are not to scale, but a general...

    How Much Space Between Workbench & Wall Cabinets?

    I plan to have an L shaped workbench with the short side open above for the bigger projects - will mount the vise there at the end as well. I was just curious what others have setup and how they like it or if they'd have raised or lowered the overheads. I work on all kinds of things...

    How Much Space Between Workbench & Wall Cabinets?

    I'm drawing up plans for my workbench and was wondering if there is a "normal" distance between the workbench top and the bottom of a wall cabinet. Since I'm planning on building everything myself, I wondered if there was a standard in the industry. Right now, I have a 38" tall workbench top...
