Hey I didn't argue the point. The best part of the whole thing was that the 20 gal was "huge" according her so when I brought home the 60 her jaw hit the floor and that's when she got mad. She was made because it was big and not because I slightly lied to her about how much I spent. I wish I...

A buddy of mine has the 60gal and loves it. He has had it for about 2years. One thing I would highly recommend is do the break-in and then change the oil to synthetic if the machine is in an unheated area. His started hard in the winter (I live in Wisconsin) until he put synthetic in. I had...

the paint on pumps was in good shape and I don't remember seeing any oil leaking.....I think If I was to pick them up I would just run one pump and either sell the other or referb it as well and use it as a back up if I ever needed it

Last week I was at the scrap yard getting some material and in my digging I cam across an IR duplex type 30 air compressor. I spun pumps and motor by hand and everything spun freely with no wobble. At the time I just walked away thinking that's kind of cool and that was that. Well...

I don't know how much sandblasting you plan on doing but I bought this compressor http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200455341_200455341 and have used the snot out it with a bench top blasting cabinet. I also used a small pressure pot setup one time a 42 inch mower deck and it...

Next Follow what bobcat and ed have to say. Also to some this means something but the Miller's are made in Appleton WI and the Hobart's are made in Troy Ohio. Most of all the Circuit bds are made in Appleton WI. The Lincolns...most come from Italy but not all. Most of the large Lincolns are...

Thanks for the input everyone!

Merc when I bought my first set of sockets(USA made lower left in pic) I planned on expanding then they sent the work to Taiwan and changed the whole design!...... Don't get me wrong I like the Taiwan stuff it feels good and has held up (chrome finish)almost better then my first set. This is...

At this point I am sick of not having the tools I need when I need them! Currently I am shopping for a mostly complete or complete socket/wrench set. Attached is a picture of what I currently own for sockets (Kobalt) Also money is not exactly flowing like water and I am just a weekend warrior...

yeah I have looking for a 100 series cub (International) in good condition but I just cant find anything either that or they want a huge amount of money that I simply cant afford. one guy wanted almost 3k for a fully restored tractor the machine is like 40 years old! not saying old is bad but 3k...

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah that's about the same response I got on another forum.

I am going to buying a brand new riding lawn mower and one of the things I came across on other forums was a product called slip plate. Anybody use this stuff and/or recommend using it on the underside of a brand new mower deck? Here is the link of the plate...

I had the same question a couple weeks ago... I ended up buying the Puma with the 50 dollar coupon so far I am very happy with the puma. My suggestion is to do the break in and then change the oil right away. the manual states change it after like 15 hrs (I cant remember off the top of my...

I don't mean to high jack the thread but can you use isolator pads/hockey pucks and not bolt the compressor down? Just picked up a 60 this weekend and looking to install

either compressor would take me a while to "burn up or wear out" But 5000 vs 20000 that's a big difference and it makes me worry a little.

I have been looking at buying a budget friendly 60 gallon air compressor for my garage. So far I am going between the Kobalt (CH rebadge $399) and the Puma at Northern Tool ($539). My worry is on the kobalt it says "up to 5000 hour bearing life but it has a 3 year warranty. The Puma...

you can (was looking at a syphon from HF) what also was included in the beer exchange was media as well

I have a one time sand blasting project and I need some input/advice. I am going to be cleaning the underside of a tablesaw and "wings" (craftsman 113.27520) I have talked to everyone at work to see if anyone has a sandblaster and the people that do have one don't have a compressor to run it...

My buddy bought the Sanborn one a little while ago (6-8months) nice compressor but a little on the loud side for me. I haven't heard the others but I do say for the money its hard to beat the Sanborn. If you want to match the Kobalt look at Fleet Farm/ Farm and Fleet at the Magna Force...
