Yep, nothing beats a Miller!! I love a Miller TIG!!!:shocking:

DUDE!!!! You do awesome work!!!!!!!!!!:beer:

How big of a piece do they come in?

I've been meaning to get some pics up, but I cant "import" pics from another site that I'm on alot. I'm going to get my wife to put some pics on for me soon. Is this site like the FTE, in that you have to have so many posts before you can upload pics to your gallery or whatever?

Hey guys and gals, what kind of pegboards and bins and such do you guys have? I'm in the process of doing some reorganizing in my shop and was hoping for some good ideas and pictures. Anyone...................? Like everyone I've got too small of a garage (30x40) and I have my show truck and...

Hey man, as Columbo would say " just one more thing" anyway, if you are going to have it in your shop make sure you put a dust cover over your air filters to keep out the body dust and such. Also, if the 108 is like dad's old 230 it has a "vent" on the flywheel side of the pump which is a piece...

You ****!!!!!!! Seriously, I'm jealous!! What a find!!! It has great patina, a real "vintage" look!!! What a steal!:beer:

The "knock" you heard is most like ly the oil pump ring in the bottom of the pump. If it says PH 3 on your motor then indeed you do have a 3phasemotor, but a 1 phasemotor is cheap and as the other cat said, DO NOT change the rpm of the motor or the pulley size. Quincy pumps are designed to make...

Hey man, I'm a Quincy nut, I have 3 of them and have had more over the years. They are the BEST compressor in my opinion. To loosen the belt, you just loosen the bolts that hold the motor to the tank bracket. They have slotted holes in them and that allows the motor to move closer to the pump...

Dude!!!! You've got a Monarch!! Thats an AWESOME lathe dude!! You'e got one sweet shop man!!! I wish I had mine that organized!! On a side note, did you say something about you "retrofitting" for Megasquirt? If so, I'd like to pick your brain sometime about a crazy idea that I have. Again...

Has anybody tried one of their English wheels? I know that if it sounds to good to be true, it usually is, but I thought for occasional use it may be alright? I mean, I cant even buy the materials to build the frame for what this thing costs? I tried to post a pic, but I cant:mad: Anyway, I was...

Yep, the Halloween smoke fog machine is what I use and it works GREAT. Cheap too (just like me):bounce:

I'll take Herb's avatar:thumbup::beer:

Hey guys, I'm new here and have not got around to look at everything YET, but I am slowly but surely getting addicted to this site. (my wife says) anyway, there may even be a thread about it, but are there any good pics of really cool garage decor on here? You know like old gas pumps, '50's...

I may show my ignorance here, but if I go with a VFD, does that eliminate my phase convertor? Are they one in the same? Or what is the purpose of the VFD? I made my convertor with help from a maintinance man from a factory. It works well and we've metered the leads and everything checked out...

I've seen them before, but heard bad things about them. I've heard they are hard on the 3phase motors? I dont know first hand, but am seriously considering changing over to a single phase motor if I could find one cheap enough. (I'm a cheapskate) I also have a 3phase Cincinnati Toolmaster mill...

Hey guys, I've got an old (1944 metal lathe) that I bought some time ago. Anyway, I've built a rotary phase convertor to run it, but at some time in it's history, someone has removed the hertz convertor which allows it to have high and low speeds. As of now, it only has high. With 3 phase you...

Hey guys, I'm new here and have a question. I have an old Bend Pac lift and the valve is leakind around where the "plunger" goes in to let the lift down. I've tried to fix it and find parts both no luck. I was wondering if any of you cats had a line on Bend Pac or parts for old lifts? Maybe...

Looks like gov work??

Nope, not surprising at all, there are several gals on the FTE, although, not as pretty as you.
