Just my 2 cents. Not sure what you used as a sealant, but I had same problem when I reworked my 25 gallon several years ago. I used some off brand pipe compound and had a few leaks. I reworked the whole thing using Rector Seal #5 thread compound, let it sit for 24 hours, and it's been solid ever...

I would like to offer my experience. I own a Ryobi 12" and have been happy with it for the $100 I paid 7 years ago. I am still on the original brushes. I've cut a ton of stuff with it (including metal) and it gives some very professional results. But, If I ever bought again I would look for...

Greetings Garage Journal readers. I just bought an Arcan XL35 3.5 ton at Northern Tool today for $139. They had the online price reduced, and my local store honored it. That's what it took to finally decide between the Arcan and the NAPA 7916420 3.5 ton. Didn't think I'd ever decide between the...
