I have a detected garage with an old style fuse panel. It's getting its power via 90 Amp breaker from the main house. I would like to install a 220v connection for my welder and air compressor. Is there anything dangerous about the old style fuse panel? Ideally, I would swap it to a modern...

Hello, This maybe a very beginner question but I was hoping you guys could give me some advice. I bought a set of 1/2" to 3/4" drill bits to drill out some handlebar ends and various projects around the house. Everytime I try to use them with my hand drill it catches and yanks the drill out...

Hello there, I'm having a hell of a time finding a easy way to cut Sch 10 1.5" stainless pipe for a turbo manifold. I currently have a Makita cold cut saw with a new MK Morse blade. It seems to get the tube too hot no matter how slow or fast I go. It also sends hot chips everywhere. It's not...

Been tracking this for a while, looks like it might be the lowest it's ever been. It is OOS but will ship when it becomes available...

I got a really good deal on a 3'x5' 1" plate of steel the other day. I'm really excited to finally build a nice welding table. I was thinking of using 2x2 3/16 square tubing for the legs. The local metal supply quoted me $3.60/ft for the tubing. Then I remember I have 60ft of round 1.5" .120 DOM...

I found this at school and can't seem to figure out what it is. It's made by Starrett. That's all I know.

I've been looking forever for a good compressor deal on CL. I ran across this old Curtis compressor last night. I can't seem to find any information about the compressor at all. I was wondering if you guys had some opinions or information before I give the seller a call. It would also be easier...

I went out and bought this vise off Craigslist today. I should have read the Vise thread before I bought it. From what I can see, there are no markings on it besides the 5. I'm afraid I might have bought a Imported vise. I bought it from a Gentleman in his 40's, he said it was his Grandfathers...

I saw a ad for a table vise on Craigslist, I paid $25 for the thing. I can not find a single piece of info on this thing. It's a 125 Rapid, Made in Poland. Did I get a good score?

Came across this while looking through the guys collection he is getting rid of. I wonder how much he wants for that work bench. :drool: http://www.thegkcollection.com/thegkcollection.com/Bugatti_Memorabilia.html
