    Quincy 325 unloader tower leak

    I needed a little help with the final stage of setting up my Quincy 325. I've got everything hooked up and the last leak is in the fitting that connects the unloader tower to the centrifugal switch. The parts manual says this should be a 1/4 OD tube X 1/8 NPT. It appears that someone stuck a...

    How do you store your taps

    I picked up a bunch of taps at an auction yesterday and am looking for a better way to store them. I don't think this is how it should be done: On another note, this came with one if the lots I bought. My guess is it was a machinists school project. Milled out of solid aluminum.

    Hardware cabinet and surface plate

    I hit a local tool auction two weeks ago and picked up a nice bolt cabinet with drawers. $70. Other than the sticker there are no markings on it. I am guessing that it is for some type of specialty bins because of the rods running down each section of the drawers. I am going to remove the...

    Care and use of a Mig regulator

    How do you guys store your mig regulator between uses? Do you simply close the tank and leave the regulator pressurized or do you release all of the pressure somehow? I am a hobbyist so I don't use my welder every day. I have been closing the tank then pulling the trigger on the gun so both...

    It's been a busy few months so I haven't posted too much. I picked up a few things off Craig's List. First was a Lincoln Weld Pak 175HD. It looks like it was never used. I had to cut the zip ties off of the plug to test it. No gun, ground or regulator, but I think I did alright for $200...
