Hey guys, im looking to add the popular "receiver hitch" option to my welding table and am looking for opinions/experience. It seems its common 2.5" OD x .25" wall HREW for the female. And for the male piece?? 1.75" x .25" wall? Is that my best option or is there a tighter fitting but...

Never heard of PLVMB before this forum, got a buggered up ratchet body (no mech) in a auction lot for free. Hope this isnt to sacrilege for some of you:evil: rare earth mag in tip catches the cap!

Here is the scope: I moved into a new place that has a 20amp single phase breaker, 12/2 wire running to the garage. Can I run a VFD on that size circuit, if so what size? The equipment I am trying to run is a 5hp 3ph motor, possibly a 7.5hp as well. Not at the same time. Any help would...

I posted a design exercise for my first table design here: -thanks for the feedback! http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=180758 After doing more research, taking ideas from this site, and moving into a larger workspace I found myself revamping the design. Simpler, bigger...

Crazy or maybe not? I have replaced my motorcycles battery with a Lithium Ion 4 cell battery. It came shipped dead, and now im looking for a temporary charger. Can I use my Mil M12 charger to charge the battery? Using jumper leads? Any help would be appreciated. Link to the battery...

Well I have a problem with auctions, and the problem this time is they took my low bids. I will sometimes bid my "reasonably low....ok if I win ill have to figure out what to do next" bids then walk away and not check the auction till its over. I ended up with this Bahco S910 socket and...

I do a lot of steel fabrication, mostly MIG welding tube frames. Im looking for a good tool to grind out welds in tight spaces. I do not have a large enough compressor to run a die grinder. So, whats the best option?: 1) a electric 1"/1.5"/2" die grinder...

Is there anything worse then a leaky air connector, ugh. I have been battling my ****** (HF/HD) air connectors for the last few years. I dont use air often, but when I do its for a few days at a time. The leak was horrible, both on the compressor to hose, and hose to tool. All was HD sourced...

Hey guys, I get a daily email from one of my more favorite online tool dealers - Big Sky Tools. They mainly do refurb'd deals like CPO. Anyways, no affiliation just a heads up on what is a smoking deal to get into the Brushless/Li-ion game. I loved my older set of Li-ion Hitachi's (almost more...

Hi, looking for some general info on where to source and when to use 4.5" angle grinder hook and loop pads. I do a lot of finish work in metal, mostly standard carbon steel. Right now I use my dry cut miter saw, weld, then finish off in 40-120 grit flap disc. I can get a pretty good finish...

I posted earlier about needing a Triple Tap for my (lackluster) Bayco cord reel. GJ member Mooky turned me onto Daniel Woodhead electrical products. DW stuff is just brutally over engineered, usually found in very heavy industry settings like oil refineries, plants, etc... Extremely expensive...

Im looking for a small (think oem M-10 Miller mig gun) sized gun that features a rotating neck? I have a Miller Passport Plus that came with the M-10, upgraded to a Bernard 300 amp beast. I love the rotating neck feature on the Bernard but the overall size and weight are total overkill for my...
