    3D Filament Deal Thread

    This is SUPER YYMV but I have found the amazon returns bin stores (at least the one near me) almost always still has sealed 1kg rolls on their $5 day and sometimes on their $3 day as well. I have gotten about 10 rolls of different brands such as elegoo and a few others at that price. And that's...

    Anybody Got a Jawhorse?

    Forums are interesting things, especially ones that let you necro a 12 year old thread like this one. I will however add that I like my jaw horse a lot and would readily replace it if it is lost/stolen/broken etc. It lives in the middle of the back yard and has been used for both metal and...

    I got lucky and was able to grab one of these Delta 36-725T2 table saws from Lowe's on clearance for only $350. I don't really have the space for it so for now when I use it I have to roll it off of the porch, but for that price I couldn't really pass it up. I added a bonus picture of my small...

    2023 Garage Sale Thread

    This may not be the most amazing deal but I was happy to find it. Picked up this grizzly dust collector with a couple of accessories for $50 at an estate sale. It'll get put to good use once I finish enclosing the carport to make a shop.

    Menards vise apparently HF knockoff (pics)

    Yost was making this style of vise long before harbor freight ever carried it. Yost model is the "D2" also Wilton has the 4550R which is the same style as well. If anything they are both probably copying those, though I don't know which company originated this style of vise.

    I looked through several of the other vise threads and couldn't really find one that I felt this post belonged in so I just created a new post. I bought this vise for $15 at a thrift shop and it's got a very unique handle design so I'm curious if it's something other than just a hunk of Chinese...

    First time paint sprayer user: what do I need to know?

    Water based paints are generally just thinned with water. Maybe some Floetrol. Honestly I don't really know as I have only used a graco 230 and they are much more forgiving than cheaper guns. I would say read your manual and play around a bit, but if you ALWAYS disassemble and clean them out...
