Sold!

I just bought a 2003 Harley Davidson VROD, 100th Anniversary Edition. For those of you that haven't seen one, check it out here: Being that I have a daughter with special needs, I would love to be able to take her along cruising now and then. She's got a pretty specialized car seat, so that...

Thanks to my line of work, my angle and die grinder are lovely Metabo units. Don't worry, they didn't walk off a job site -- one of the companies I was working for this summer upgraded from the locking type switch to paddles on both types of grinders, so when these needed rebuilt, I got them and...

I'm looking for the following items in good condition: -trim band for the head assembly -spindle pulley -serial tag

One of my buddies brothers has an anvil. 125 pound Trenton. Unfortunately, the striking surface is pitted: I'm wondering if it's salvageable, given the pitting?

So back in college, I splurged on a MacBook -- the one with the white polycarbonate shell. My experience with CRAPple Care (2 x repairs, and one time it came back with a dead battery that Apple refused to replace -- looking like it had been thrown across a room) leaves a bad taste in my mouth...

So after checking out Lincoln's Viking auto-darkening helmets, I pulled the trigger on a new 3350 Series 2. As it turns out, the ADF cartridge from the 3350 will also fit the 2450 shell. I have also confirmed this via email with Lincoln Electric. This opens up quite a few more options when it...

Be prepared for crappy welds. Today, I mainly practiced striking and maintaining an arc, and starting to get a feel for where I needed to keep the rod. The Setup: 75 amps, electrode+ mode = cc stick soft arc control = 0, arc start = 3 6010 rods, 1/2" plate The Station: The Welds...

I'm looking for an Atlas 7A or 7B metal shaper for my workshop so that I can craft some much needed parts for my daughters wheelchair and such. Occasionally, I hear about people sending these off for scrap, but I'll gladly drop some coin for one -- just don't want to spend an arm and a leg.

Being that Im out of work at the moment, I decided to take my neighbor up on some stick welding lessons. I came to two realizations today: 1.) a beautiful weld is indescribably so 2.) ZTfab is superhuman So, with that said, I had some scrap metal to tinker with, so I built a sundial...

I've got a 2006 Chevy Silverado -- it's been wrecked before, but fixed, and has collected a few dents along the way because it's a truck and I use it for truck-ish things. I made the mistake of going through a touchless car wash, which pealed some clear on the passenger side door. I plan on...

Have any of you guys ever fabricated your own nerf bars? I want some for my truck, but they're all very... crappy looking. I've got a welder, and I'm stupid enough to believe I can do it. What say you?

So I'm embarking on the Amazing Workshop's latest endeavor -- designing some handicapped swings for local playgrounds and parks, as part of an outreach program by a local Autism group. These damned swings are pretty pricey, but I think I can build it much cheaper: Has anyone ever tried...

So I've got a new face plate for my Pro-Core 100, and I got the top knob off by removing a set screw. However, the bottom knob doesn't seem to have a set screw. It's got a knotch in the back of the knob, but it just appears to be a pocket. Ideas?

While I won't be welding Russian fighter jets together, I will be welding sheet and tubing. I'll likely be buying used since I can't afford to drop a grand or so at the moment (vehicle replacement is a slightly bigger problem for now). :3gears: Ideas? I'm thinking something like a Lincoln...

I picked up a Craftsman 1/3rd HP "block" bench grinder (397.19580) at a flea market for $10. In the process of tearing it down, I could get one arbor nut free or the other. In the process, I stupidly managed to get both grinder wheels off, but now I've got a lone arbor nut stuck on the spindle...

Stumbled across it while looking for old power tools. Managed to find an unrestored (but working) one on CL for anyone interested in owning one of these gems: http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/tls/2962079849.html Sure, it's $800 - but there are several thousand pound of cast in this thing, so...

This isn't my listing, but I stumbled across it while looking for a drill press. It's in Washington D.C. or thereabout, and I've got no way to get it to Ohio - otherwise I'd already have it. :drool...

I couldn't find anything I wanted in stock at my local "hometown store" (I know they have it, but they never update their stock). With that said, while I wanted to order a 21mm and a 22mm 6-pt 1/2 drive socket to finish out my 6 points, they weren't available without being shipped (or without...

Not showing damaged product photos would be a great start! :dunno: Link to the listing: http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00945864000P?mv=rr .
