    DIY 3D Printed CNC Plasma table based on JD's Garage plans

    Can you tell me about your printing? I am starting my build and have got my printer ready to go. Did you use the recommended settings? I am curious if I need to use the exact .8 nozzle the recommend.

    I timed my paint spray gun. It *****. Looking for help.

    With my 3.2hp 10.2CFM @90PSI rated 60 gallon husky pro compressor with 100psi line pressre and 26.5 psi into the HVLP gun which requires 15cfm at 40psi I measured 1.82 minutes of spraying time before the compressor turns on again. I have a 50 foot 3/8 hose from the wall regulator into a gun...

    Show us your welding projects

    Not as nice as I would like but it was a fun exercise in flux core welding which I have never done. I always MIG or TIG. It was pushing the limits of my smallest welder. If it bugs me enough I might go back and redo the screw on pivot plate. The important thing is it is very square and will be...

    Hammered paint

    It's weird that every hardware store within like 50 miles only carries silver or black or brown. I wish I could find a can or two in a store! I am wondering if I can mix some green and silver out of a brush on can and make myself a light green or blue.

    I have a portable bandsaw and would like to refill and regrease the worm drive, but have no idea what type of grease or oil to use. Could I use just a lucas synthetic automotive grease?

    bench shear blades and build

    I would like to build a small bench shear out of steel to cut sheet metal. I will buy the steel to make the blades and use angle iron and tubing and whatever else I could scrounge around the house and make a shear for not much more than the cost of the metal for the blades. I would like to...

    What do you guys think of these certiflat welding tables? I like that I can put it together myself and it isn't super expensive or heavy. 2x4 table $259 without shipping. These tables get their strength and level from very accuratley laser cut tab and slot assembly.

    Fixture/jig weld table top

    Not sure but I don't think I need 1/2" top because I am just a hobbyist not a production shop and I don't usually deal with very heavy stuff and don't plan on welding to the table itself. What do you guys recommend for a budget conscious weld table? I like the idea of having some holes or slots...

    air Cut off Aircat 6505 slows and stalls

    The tool requires an avg of 7.8cfm@90psi my compressor can supposedly do 11cfm but since I haven't tested what the tool is actually getting who knows. What I do know is I don't run the tool constantly I will wait until the compressor catches back up before using it again. Pretty sure if I...

    AWESOME!! Thanks so much! I searched on google trying to find more info about this and there is not much! Really weird because anyone with an air compressor should do this.

    air Cut off Aircat 6505 slows and stalls

    Ok got it thank you for taking the time to help me out. I realized my question didn't make sense after asking it! So I just need a gauge in between the tool and the hose I use? And yes my compressor is much smaller. Its a 3.5hp 60 gallon husky.

    air Cut off Aircat 6505 slows and stalls

    Can I just hookup my tool to the hose and bring it near the regulator and run the tool to see the pressure drop and adjust until it is at the 90psi I need?
