Just to set the record straight. Those are my tools, my pics, and my write-up. Why you decided to start this BS is beyond me, since you had commented on this thread back in 2013 without voicing a complaint at that time. Here are the tools in question as they sit on my workbench today

You notice that this recommendation is no longer available in any recent Tombstone welder documentation, because most folks exceeded (or ignored) the 45min time restriction. Using 75A as a general recommendation is NOT SAFE. It all depends on the type of pipe and the length of the run --...

I'm still here -- mostly lurking though. Would love to see the car Will.

Time to start planning again for the fall. I'll be glad to host again in the October/November timeframe, but it would be nice if we had more than one get-together (GTG) this fall. Anyone else interested in hosting a GTG?

Welcome -- nice to have you on the GG. You definitely have a place with great potential.

Sold -- if it's still available

Here are the Fall 2010 Northern Virginia Garage Gang GTG pics! A wonderful day with many beautiful cars. The highlight of the day was "kheim's" Lambo Murcielago --- it can't get much better than seeing such a car up close and personal. "Ole" brought his newest project purchase -- a 1959...

Beautiful Dog!! my sincere condolences --

My sincere condolences!!!

Very nice machine!!!That's an early-mid 1970's Sun Infra-Red analyzer. It's the largest and most sophisticated of the old school familiy of machines that were manufactured from the late 1950's through the 1970's. It is not a computer based machine and uses mostly 1960's electrical component...

Re: Moisture Problem is Old Garage Should have left the concrete Bull. The moisture is wicking up through your floor (even with the plastic and gravel) -- that can add up to several gallons of water per day making it's way up through the rafters. Open up the rafters and create a draft -- that...

Wrong!! That is a 1990's Enco 17" Taiwanese drill press and the castings are well finished with quality bearings. It's on par with Jet and other quality Taiwan manufactured equipment. It includes a heavy duty 1/2HP industrial motor (real 1/2HP -- not a cheap imitation) That design was produced...

What a wonderful day to spend outside talking about tools, machinery and cars. We had a pretty good turnout -- Hope some of you watched the pics on-line. In case you didn't, here are a few snapshots. Somehow, I wound up with more beer than I started with :lol_hitti The "watchdog"...

The GTG is on for Saturday Nov. 7th --12:00 noon until 5:00PM Send me a PM for directions -- if (you haven't already) GF

Still working on it - just got back from a trip, so I was distracted a bit. I'll post times dates soon.

Will do -- I'll PM all the local folks when I get a bit more clarity. herbet99 -- I'll send you a "test" Personal Message (PM) in a minute -- it will show up on the top-right side of the page under the heading "Personal Messages" -- click on it and reply. If you have problems -- post away...

"Get-To-Gether" -- GTG Sorry -- should have made that more clear. All you local guys, I'll keep in touch via PM and am hoping to schedule the GTG in late October (not Halloween) or early November. "She Who Must Be Obeyed" -- SWMBO -- Not a trivial issue for those of us with "Honey Do" lists...

Well, the weather is getting cooler and it's nice to hang outside. Anyone up for another GTG? I wouldn't mind hosting again if need be -- always nice to hang out and talk shop in the fall.

Up until the 1950's, a standard carpenter's hammer was part of many "Master Autobody" service sets. Reason being is that the body and fender repair trade has its roots in the old wood "coach building" trades. Since many cars well into the 1940's had a lot of wood used in their construction, the...
