    I picked up a new multi handler 200 and I’m having regulator issues. With the line unhooked from the back of the welder I can not get flow below 30 CFH. And at 30 CFH the needle flutters.

    I hate my current layout

    This is my current layout and it feels wrong. Feels like everything is out of place and I can’t put my finger on why. Currently waiting on a fixture table top so I can build the frame and I have no idea where it’s going to go in this mess. My 2 post is to the left of all this and the man door to...

    Grinder worth restoring?

    This is an old craftsman 1/3 hp grinder I’ve had for years. It fell over and busted one of the side housing and bent the other. Shaft runs true and motor is quiet. Trying to decide on investing 100$ or so to repair it or just let this one go and buy a new machine.

    LP tank inside garage?

    Planning to do either LP ceiling mount heater or radiant tube LP heat. I’ve been considering keeping the 100lb LP tank in the corner. My wife thinks I’m crazy for doing this but I don’t really see the danger. Considering the cabinet that stores combustibles including gas is inside. The oxy torch...

    Got some work done this weekend

    Managed to get the mill moved in and some other smaller equipment. Got some wire roughed in and got everything powered up. Moving that mill was kind of a chore for one person. Really wish I would have got insulation done before the cold came. Guess I’ve got all winter to get it done now.

    Exhaust fan for diesel tractor

    What’s a good fan and placement to get exhaust from tractors out of a garage? It’s a 32x40 with 12’ walls. Was thinking a louvered fan in the wall on the end with the tractor. Just turn it on before I start it. And shut it off when when it’s cleared out. Anyone tried anything like this?

    New 32x40 is done

    My shop was completed last month and I am trying to figure out how to organize it. What is a good way to store random parts. I could do shelves but they collect dust and other random stuff. I am trying to keep the storage area looking clean. Also is there a good solution for storing small...
