    Tig tungsten grinders, what do you use?

    Just a safety reminder.... Some of the tungsten you use has a radioactive metal in them. The dust is pretty unhealthy and that's why the big shop sharpeners have a dust collection apparatus on them to safely keep the radioactive dust from getting into your lungs. The metal is called Thorium...

    Lathe on top of tool box?

    If I put a counter top type on it do i overlap it and leave a lip, or do i set it inside on the actual top of the box?? Theres like a lip all around it. I dont think that lip would support the counter top would it? Or do I need a board to go in there and make the whole top one level?

    Lathe on top of tool box?

    Its just a GRizzly small lathe http://www.grizzly.com/products/10-x-22-Bench-Top-Metal-Lathe/G0602 Its really not too heavy. far less heavy then a full top box would be. Im thinking a good solid wood top would suport it well, and protect the box?

    A Guy made me an honest offer for a motorcycle I had for sale, but it was a littel low. I knew the guy really wanted the bike so I asked if he had anything to trade to sweeten the deal.

    Looking for a low RPM corded drill for blair spot weld cutter

    Buy a couple new batteries. Then you will have your cordless drill back in your tool stash. My DeWAlt is a 12v and is 14 years old. The 12v batteries are low in price now, and I took the old battery apart and rebuilt them with new batteries myelf for 1/10th of the cost of a new battery.
