Finally into my new home and new garage, so im needing to put some cabinets together. I havent done any cabinet making before so im a bit ignorant to standard sizes for things. Does anybody have any plans or cut lists for standard size garage cabinets? Tall wall, short workbench type and...

i've been waiting for something like this to come up, and sure enough it did. Panasonic gunslinger 260 welder was sent off to be scrapped at work, so i saved it for scrap price (40 bucks since scrap prices doubled and its so damn heavy). Took a pic right after testing and verifying it worked...

work is always getting rid of things. so i got for scrap price a lincoln powerwave 450 unit, as well as a panasonic gunslinger 260. both work, but the gunslinger is gonna need a few things here and there. does anybody know where i can get a copy of the manual for the gunslinger, lincoln has...

got some engineer pliers, have to say they are pretty awesome. they do seem to do an amazing job at grabbing damn near anything. had a few minutes at work so i took a second to test their claim on the package of "HRC 56". their website claims 60 +-2 HRC as well. i got some weird results, which...

480 primary and 120/240 secondary. is there any issue with having a load on the 240 x1/x4 while still pulling a load on the x2/x3 and x4 for 120? assuming that both 240 and 120 loads combined are a max of 17.5 amps and the transformer is 40/20 amp rating for the kva and load outputs?

When your company decides they want to hire "professionals" to weld something instead Yes, a 120 ton brake press was cracking at the seams and needed to be repaired.... That'll hold! Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

yep, first one i've ever seen like that, looks like a lot of ingenuity, but a lot of stubbornness for refusing to just grab a harbor freight one lol http://omaha.craigslist.org/tls/5515303823.html

http://omaha.craigslist.org/tls/5467864441.html worth it or not? been looking for a starter lathe, not sure how big or small to go and how much to spend

any ideas? i'm in the market for a nice drill press, i'll even take one without a motor since i have a few 1hp motors i can adapt to one to give it some extra power. looks like a 70s style drill press, can anyone identify?

got myself some scrap from work, built mostly out of 1.5x3/4x1/8 tube steel, and 1x1 angle. 4 heavy duty albion 8" wheels, a stop for the swivel side of the table. and the top is a 1/2"x21"x50" steel plate from a die that we scrapped at work. it took a while waiting for a good piece to show up...

i get industrial fans cheap from work, they tend to just throw them out so i buy them at scrap price and repair at home. most of the time its a burned capacitor or they are dented beyond timely repair where they are cheaper to replace than having to wait for a replacement or keep more on hand...

lincoln flux core wire welder. little welder is nice, works good for hobby stuff, i've ran exactly one spool through this (ran out during the demonstration weld oddly enough). no kinks in the liner, feeds great, constant buzz, good welds. it will do whatever you want it to within reason, its...

lugging a car battery back and forth or using long leads trying not to short them out *****. also trying to tear off fuse panels just to get to a 12v constant source for testing isn't very friendly when you need a bunch of tools to tear stuff open and put it back hopefully not breaking clips...

So we get the opportunity to grab anything in the bins at work and buy it for scrap price, so I ended up grabbing a few things over the week and got this baldor grinder stand from there also, it had a cheapo vise on it, they took the vise off and tossed the pedestal in the bin, it came out...

i do enough electrical at work but im no electrical engineer. i understand the concept as to why the testers operate (i think) but don't understand why they sometimes can read DC voltage even though they are only supposed to read AC voltage. i'll put it anywhere near a 110v cord and i can get...
