My regulator got knocked off my bench the other day. It seems to be ok but the guages got broke. I have looked on google and don't seem to be able to find replacement guages. Does anyone know where I can find them. The identifying info I could find on it is "Harris 601". If I can't make this...

Does anyone know where I can get a refill for my desiccant dryer. I have found it local but its a 50 lb bag and its 150$. I don't really need that much and to be honest I don't want to pay that much. Any help would be appreciated.

(Sorry the post is so long) My mother has a 70 truck bed trailer she wants me to modify slightly. She has a bad back and can not lift anything into it or can't load her riding mower because she can't lift the ramps. I am going to bag it, that will get the bumper closer to the ground. I would...

I will be staying in my parents rent house until I can save enough to build my own. They have already let me put in a couple of 220 lines and extra breakers for plugs and lights.

I need to soundproof the wall from the garage all the walls from the living areas to the bedroom. The only thing I can think to do that would be easy is to insulate those walls, I'm not sure if that will be enough. I have read some articles that say to put a extra layer of sheetrock. I was also...

My wife gave me to go ahead finally to get a new welder. I have been reading a lot about them. I think I have narrowed it down to three first the millermatic 190, lincoln 180, and the hobart handler 190.

I am redoing my intake. I have been looking at the solberg silencer/filter. The question I have is would the solberg filter be better at filtering and quieting or should I use something like a k and n with a outerwears cover and a muffler.

Does anyone have any experiance with the chinese tig welders and plasma cutters on ebay. I would like to have both of them but it makes me edgy how cheap they are. If you have had one or know about them please help me decide. I am trying to determine if it would be ok to get those or if I...

I am going to redo the intake on my compressor, hopefully to make it quieter. The question I have is what kind of filter would be best, a k and n or a foam filter like a uni. Thanks for your time and help.
