Baldor 333b 8 inch buffer 3/4hp single phase. Can wire for 220v or 110v. Currently wired for 110v. The old school cast iron pedestal (pretty sure) is from the 50s. The buffer itself is just about new. I acquired it in a trade for a bunch of machine shop stuff from a going out of business sale...

I acquired a compressor for a customer that will replace my current unit. I was planning on adding a dedicated breaker to the existing fuse panel and adding a non fusible safety switch directly below the fuse panel (compressor is going right next to the fuse panel) and then hard wiring the...

My Ridgid oiless air compressor has been acting funky for the last few days. Over the weekend, it runs almost constatly to keep a full tank for for simple tasks like quick 5 second bursts running 60 psi for blowing out dirt while cleaning guns, filling tires, etc. The pressure relief valve and...

My wife had me cleaning out the attic the other day and I found my little Wilton vise that I had stashed up there a few years ago. I had intended to clean it up and put a coat of paint on it and use it for smaller work out in the shop. Like so many other projects it got put aside. I forgot I...

There's a fella in the Pittsburgh area that has an old Remline toolbox for sale. I'd love to purchase it myself but I'm afraid my Fiancee might shoot me if I came home and rolled this thing up the driveway :shocking: Below is the link. Hopefully somebody can give it some TLC and a new home...

I'd like to buy a good vise. I'm looking for something a little older with a little character but ultimately, I'm looking for a good, heavy, well built piece of equipment that's going to serve me well. 4" jaws or wider. Look me up if you're looking to sell or have a good lead. Thanks!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I just wanted to introduce myself and let you know that this is the most interesting forum I have come across in a long while. I have spent the last few days perusing the site and have really enjoyed myself. It's good to see so many others that share a similar garage and...
