In reference to my original thread: Calling Quincy 325 Experts Strouty; I have not forgot about you :D I have been real busy throughout the past few months and have not had a chance to post, although I have done major work on my projects. The following posts will be of my Quincy 325 ROC 106...

I have the chance to get one of 2 Quincy 325 compressors, for a song. My plan is to rebuild it, then run it for the rest of my life. They are both equally high hour units. I have a couple of questions to decide which one to choose. First off, which style casting is more desirable? One looks...

I normally dont post anything firearms related, but ammo cans can serve a purpose in the garage as well, great for storage. Anyhow, Palmetto State Armory has 12 .50cal cans (case) for $90 shipped. New manufacture, mil spec. If guns are up your alley, check out their other deals. I buy from...

Here we go! My prices are as fair as I can figure, especially for a quick sale. All prices are OBO, and all include shipping USPS Priority mail, as stated. I ONLY accept Paypal, and will ONLY ship after receiving payment. Add 3% if not using gift option. Ask questions if you have them...

I have a common issue. I have to R&R these 2'' NPT plugs on a daily basis, they have a 7/8'' internal square drive on it, similar to the image below. Most of the time I can get away with using a 3/4'' ratchet, but I would like to have the proper tool to remove them... Anyone?

Alright, found this about a month ago on Craigslist in NY (i live in Texas). It is an Atlas Clausing 6300 lathe with lots of extra tooling. Anyhow, got a buddy in CT to go take a look at it and he snagged it for $750. Fast forward a month, and it is now in a crate. My buddy...

Found this gem on the local Craigslist. It is in great condition and has everything there, including the tool rests and good stones. It is 3 phase, but I would just slap a VFD on it. Problem is, I cannot find much info on it. I got the guy down to $180, will offer him $160 on the spot and im...

Up for grabs is a set of red white and blue limited run hard handle Instinct screw drivers. They are BRAND NEW, but do not have the cellophane wrapping. These cannot be purchased in this color anymore from your dealer. Equivalent set in current colors runs $165 from Snap On. My asking price...

The good, the bad, and the ugly.... Post it all here for everybody to see. -kunk

I know a lot of people grabbed the Lotos plasma cutters around the holiday season, and have had success with them. But has anyone had any experience with their welders? Specifically I am looking at this little machine...

We have these canvas bags at work, i want a set for a grinder at home. Tried Google, no luck. Anyone know a source? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I posted a thread in the "General tool discussion" regarding identification of my bench grinder. Now that i dive further in to it, i think it deserves it's own thread to help facilitate answering other's questions with issues I had to figure out. To start; here is the grinder, i saved it from...

Well, i got this bad boy from work. They were throwing it out because it was unsafe (which it is). It does run, but has play in the shaft going end to end. Anyway, it is about time for me to rebuild it, but i have no idea what it is.... There is no ID tag on it. So, i need a couple things, wtf...

Well, my girlfriend just told me that she would buy me a pressure washer (that I've wanted for a while) for my birthday. Under $500. Gas. And good quality. I've been looking at ones with Honda and Kohler motors, different brands, different specs. Horizontal, or vertical? So, what say ya'll...

Heard it on the radio just now, check your local store. This Feb 20th, get a paper bag up front and take 20% off anything that fits in it. I believe power tools only qualify for 10% off thou. Who knows what is a real good deal? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

At home I use the normal "industrial" style air fittings, that you can get from HF, Home Depot, Lowes, your local Auto Parts store..... At work, we use Milton P style on 3/8'' hose, for regular air tools, and we use Milton G style on 1/2'' hose, for 1'' impacts and large tools. I recently had...

Did a search, couldnt find much. I twisted a 1/4'' hex impact socket the first time I used it, brand new set. Been calling the 800 number off their website all day, keep getting random voicemail boxes, and transfers. Cannot seem to get ahold of anybody. I submitted the auto form on their...

Well, the house I live in currently has a shed on the far end of the back yard, it has two outlets, a light, and conduit running in to the ground. There is no voltage at the wiring coming out of the conduit. I have no idea where the conduit leads, and where it comes up in to the house at...
