You don't want to have it go up from the compressor - you want it downhill incase any water/condensation goes *backward* after the pump has stopped. Water in the compressor head is not good. Fix that and you've got a nice setup.

One thing i would recommend looking into is making the input of the filter lower then the output of the pump. Any water that will run back to the pump will make it no longer enjoy life.

Could always add a side box to the snappy if you need more space

Try using your square as a guide. Helped me.

Maybe im missing the obvious. But if your going to bare metal how do you plan to protect it from flash rising until you can get it to paint jail with out an air compressor. Even if your doing rust repair you need to have something protecting the good sheet metal. If this is your planned route...

Re: Menards cabinet differences (other than size) between 36" vs 41" vs 56"? I believe the 56 is a couple inches deeper then the 36 & 41.

I've seen the lights that mount to your mig gun and to be honest I think it would help. I'm far from experienced but if you can't see what your welding your grinder is going to get a workout. Here is a link to the light. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0048GADR2/?tag=atomicindus08-20

I've seen sevt_chevelle's work on another site. He knows his stuff and I would trust what he says.

Keep the 12 points. I occasionally find fasterners on cars that are 12 and there is only one way to get them off. Just like any other tool, you might not always need it, but when you do need it and have it your day goes much better.

Heard someone mention before get a small fire going in the back yard and have the kids practice with them so they know how to use them if needed. Might be worth it to have a spare good on hand just incase the olds ones are done.

Haven't swept in over 2 years.... Also have a gravel floor. The only good part about it is I don't have to really clean anything except for the big chunks.

I saw it wasn't allowed in the classified section but thought I would post it here. Not mine just saw it and thought I would pass it along. http://cedarrapids.craigslist.org/tls/2755940537.html 60 Gal Quincy compressor for $275. If I wans't so broke right now from x-mas I would ****** this up.

Still haven't filled us in on the size or the price... scared to find out on the latter

In hindsight I suppose I did threadjack... /threadjack Thank you e-tek for your taking the time to do this and share with us. Agent 1320 - also curious how the test is coming so far after 1 year.

Why not blast the frame and put some epoxy primer/topcoat on it and do it properly instead of a rust encapsulator. Rust will win eventually, if your taking the time to go this far why not do it right? The only place I see this stuff useful is for the hard to reach places where you can't remove...

Who doens't need another flashlight? If I win, I promise this one won't get lost....

Tell your friend thank you for his generosity. I'm sure all of us wish we could do more especially during this time of the year.

Oh I suppose I can go along with that as well.

+1 - Agree completely. I bought a miller 135 (120v) unit of CL cause I am starting to do some rust repair and thought I'd never really use it for anything more then sheetmetal. Suprise suprise I was wrong. My FIL was smart and purchased a Millermatic 180 (220v) and I am having to go over to...
