    Harbor Freight Coupon Thread

    FWIW, I use a google voice number for all public facing interactions. If anyone decides to spam me, it is easy to block their number. I only give out my actual cell number to people I personally know.

    Feit Electric T8 LED Fixtures at Costco

    I really like mine. gives great light, good spill, good temperature. On;y cpomplaints is the way it mounts and the cord. I would prefer to install the screws through the fixture and a hard wire installation instead of the plug.

    A little upgrading

    Mostly use it for youtube videos on how to do this or that. Also fun to put the kids in the car and go to a "drive in movie". They get a kick out of it.

    Harbor Freight Coupon Thread

    I was in HF today asking about this chest. The checkout clerk pulled out a flyer for the March parking lot sale and the chest was listed for $349. That said, i'll try to use the posted coupon tomorrow, since I'd rather have it now for the extra $10 than wait another month.

    Chinese Cut50 Plasma Cutter group buy interest

    From the amount of interest generated on just one forum, i'm surprised bob isn't thinking about becoming a domestic distributor. Heck, I'd give bob 5-10% extra just for the hassle and continue to go to him for the consumables because he has a good rep and is looking out for the community. My...

    A little upgrading

    I've gotten most of the wiring done. got the compressor wired and tried it out. Far more quiet than I was expecting. It didn't walk around either, though I will still screw it into the shelf. I've also picked up 2 air tanks, one 20 and one 30. I'll put the 20 on the shelf and the 30 in the...

    Feit Electric T8 LED Fixtures at Costco

    i picked up one of these to go over the workbench. i already have 4 4' 2 bulb fixtures, but this really lit up the work area. i'm happy with the light, except i wish it had a more traditional installation instead of the wall plug.

    A little upgrading

    got a little more done on the electrical. Compressor is wired up 220 via 20amp circuit. Goes through a lighted switch, so I've got a quick way to check if I left it on. The shop lamp is wired through a 15amp circuit and I used a switch/outlet for that. The outlet came in handy for the small...

    I'm not in a rush. I can wait for as long as it takes to get it together. Bob has a day job, so he isn't going hungry. Unless you are fence sitting on another unit, I don't see where anyone would want to rush this or pester bob for updates.

    TV wall mount

    After getting my TV, I can't recommend the mount for heavier, +40lbs, TVs. Not that the mount failed, but it definitely does not move as easily as you would expect it to, and it does not feel as secure as I would want. But it is on the wall now, only way it is coming down is on its own, if it...

    A little upgrading

    can I run the wiring directly from the wall(continuous to a double pole switch off of the breaker) to the pressure switch, or do I need to put a junction box on the wall and run the wiring through a conduit from the wall to the pressure switch?

    TV wall mount

    not sure on the monoprice, but I just ordered this one for $29.59. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WYVBR0/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Had to add some flat stock spanners for an older plasma, but it looks like it will work for me. My TV weighs 65+5lbs added weight and the mount is for up to 88lbs.
