Hi, wonder if anyone has some ideas here... This is a gear on my dynabrade buffer, a few teeth on the gear got chipped and it rattles if it runs because it's skipping. It's a 1/4 inch gap behind the gear to get something in there. I only had a cheap gear puller but it was tough to get in the...

Hi, Putting this in my garage (1st coat down tonight). I don't park there it's more of a workshop, kid play area than anything. The guys at sherwin williams suggested not using a clear sealer, said it wasn't really needed and was hard to apply right (seemed a bit odd)? I'm a bit on the...

Hey all, i'm relocating my compressor yet again. Right now it's hard wired from the panel. Where i'm putting it i need to run conduit down a wall. My question is currently there is a square d pressure switch (no manual switch) on the compressor. Should i just run a junction box at the end of...

hose not pipe. i know this is a dumb question, this is just more psi than my last compressor (1 vs 2 stage) so double checking! I want to go off the tank cutoff for about 25-50 feet with full pressure, to the only regulator/filter i have at the moment. No problems with that right? hose is 350...

Picked this up a bit back, was about a mid 90's red matco which is a IR 2340. shed stored and humidity had really made it pretty ugly but the drain was always left cracked tank was clean, nothing major but lots of surface rust specs all over everything. I'd have left it but the garage is multi...

Hi all, cleaning up this older baldor (probably about 15 years) i'm confused. the bearings are sealed but the end caps have grease fittings. I was going to reassemble it after painting the motor and cleaning and painting the end caps. I was also going to add some grease to the cups but i'm not...

Hey all, i'm installing a dryer after the compressor. it's rated for the psi of the compressor (175psi) but i usually regulate down much lower than that of course usually 90 but sometimes 110 for a long hose run 100feet i have to go. should i put the regulator after or before the dryer? I'm...

{edit} err cab not can.. Originally had some puck lights under here but they were junk. Had a left over hanging florescent which was pretty low profile. Also had 2 cans of red, left over. Rustoleum apple red and regal red. Took apart the light, sprayed the plastic ends with krylon flat black...

What kind of paint are you guys using for the pump? I picked up a mid 90's ir 2340 30t, it's that grey color. I thought i saw some rustoleum industrial grey at ace the other day, does that work ok with the heat of the pump? Which works best spray or brush on the pump? I'm thinking brush may...
