The abrasives are the downside, and it sounds like that machine uses more than a traditional waterjet machine. The kickstarter page says abbrasives will be $0.60-1.10 a pound, that sprocket they cut used 31 pounds and took 98 minutes to cut. Now if you are cutting soft materials, such as...

Items that I bought from enco on sale, do show come up on msc at the price I last bought them for through enco. And I did add a few things to my cart through MSC today, and the pricing is cheaper then it was last week. I ordered 4 leveling feet from msc last week for 10.60 a piece, which was...

Thanks Jody, I've come across your channel a few times over the years. I ended up watching your mig basics playlist to give my self a refresher. Also watched a few other videos, keep up the good work :beer:

I have a set of Greenlee ratching crimpers, best crimpers I have ever used. I've since tried a few other brands, and so far they have all fell short in comparison. I have a set of dies for insulated, and a set for non insulated connectors. This picture was when I first got them, I just grabbed...

pulling, circles. I'll try pushing, thanks. I always forget the proper directions. By pulling, am I blowing to much gas into the weld? Or is it a heat thing? I'll watch the video after work.

I'm welding up a new base for my CNC mill, and some of the welds need to be ground smooth. Using 2" 11 gauge tubing with a millermatic 211. All edges are beveled as well. Here is a picture before welding And here is a picture showing some of the welds ground smooth, you can see the voids I...

I started filling mine up a bit yesterday. One will be for abrasive wheels, and boxes of hardware. The other I will be using for CNC tooling storage. First drawer is filled with Roloc wheels. Next one with 4.5" flap discs, cutoff discs, and grinding discs. I have another with all of my...

I just picked up two of the 7 drawer units for 175, had to buy what was left inside them to take them home today. But the led unit and crimp connectors unit were both pretty well picked over, and most of what was worth having. I feel that they were worth the 87.50 a piece. They are a good depth...

I used a kit from legacy industrial for the book of the patch work. Of course I missed a few small spots. I am going to try rock solids 2 part patch kit for the remaining spoots. The legacy kit worked great, and I would order it again for larger repairs. I will be using rock solids garage for...

Finally decided to coat my floor after 3 years of being here. Of course that means I had 3 years to fill the garage with **** as well... So I will have to do the floor in 2 sections so that I can move stuff around. Here are the items that I I have to keep in the garage. 44" HF Tool chest with...

The steel yard I go to charges by weight, and had cut charges. If you buy a full length sick, you get one cut for free. If you only need a short piece, finding a drop is cheaper since you do not need to pay to have it cut.

I got my free parts washer working after several months of ignoring it in the corner. Someone fitted a small AC motor to the pump, and with that motor the lid would not close all the way. I debated buying a new modern pump, or some how offsetting the ac motor and having it belt powered. I...

Is it tripping the breaker? And how cold is it where you run the compressor? I've seen smaller 110v compressors struggle to run when cold.

This page has more photos of the lathe. Looks like its for boring operations only. http://store.harryepstein.com/dailydispatch/2013/04/pt-boat-hand-powered-lathe/

I had to drill a few holes in the side of my 4runner last year. At the B piller I had to cut through 3 layers on both sides. And the inner 2 layers had cutouts and ribbing where I needed the holes. I started with a 1/4" pilot hole through all 3 layers. Then I used a Lenox hole saw with a 3/8"...

I hated having to run the trimmer along the edge of the house every time I mowed the lawn. When I redid the landscaping in front of the house, I ran the new rock down the entire side of the house. I still have to trim along the back side of the house, and a little around the garage. But I do...

This is my chop saw and steel storage setup.

Your looking for linkage pins. When I needed some for hanging the dies of my tubing bender, I couldn't find the size I wanted without having to cut them down. So I ended up making my own, was pretty easy to do and a lot cheaper as well. Locally a 3/4" linkage pin was $10.

I bought a HF 7x10 lathe over a year ago, and I have been happy with it. I just recently upgraded it to a 14" bed and quick change tool post. I've turned steel on it more then anything else, with light cuts it does just fine. These are some 3/4" pins I made to hang the dies for my tubing...
