Straight and clear - I bought the CK kit, I used them, I broke them and I didn't replace them. I didn't find any advantage to them over the standard ceramic or lava cups. The shower head style gas...

Hey guys, my TIG project is done and I'm starting a new project and need to clear out the shop. I'm selling all of my TIG stuff starting with my 250EX all the way to the gloves. There's a ton of...

Geezer got it right. Gap it, tack it, push it. Practice it a couple of times use the cursive E method so you don't stick on an edge too long and burn a hole. Square tube will burn through faster than...

You all need to just rent your tanks. I bought my first two thinking I was smart but then found out I wanted bigger tanks. I have an account at AirGas so they let me trade my tanks in for rentals at...

Marks, got the fix to your problem. It's the points, you just need to reset them. Mine started the same way and eventually got to the point where I was doing lift starts. I reset my points and...

After 6 pages of posts there finally begins to be some clarity as to the process of enterning the contest. Are you serious???????

Please remove me from the contest if you've ever actually...

The new forum uses different views and foreign key's so the data doesn't come straight over, you have to run the conversion against the database to update the schema. Sounds like that's the part that...

Agree, the VOC's aren't from the lead they're from something else. Volatile Organic Compounds don't mean "Bad Stuff" it just means that it has an odor. Heck, a rose has one of the highest natural VOC...

In order to maintain air-speed velocity, an african swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second. Not sure about European but carrying coconuts is probably not possible and it's...

Gessr, good hit on the hose quality! I was begining to question that air hose so I changed it out for regular inert gas hose a couple of nights ago after I read your post. It made a significant...

Depends mainly on the type of Al. 6061 (Heat Tempered) extrusions would be better off without a smoothing pass. Here's a tip, use WD-40 on a flap disk and the metal when you're grinding and it'll be...

I also have the small HF variable speed grinder. After I cut and grind a tungsten on the diamond wheel, I polish it on the scotchbrite wheel of the small grinder.

What I've found is that depending...

I also bought the HF diamond saw sharpening blade but switched up and went with a Bosch 4-1/2 diamond tile blade. I also use the concrete blades for back chipping. They are designed for 4-1/2"...

Nice work.. Looks better than anything I've seen.

You could also replace the hoses with CK superflex and make a really big difference. The Everalst torch is not a bad torch. I think it's the jacket and cables that make it unwieldly. I can't wait for...

Excellent!

Been using Rectorseal since I was 10 years old (57 now). My Dad was a Plumbing contractor. White for water, Yellow for gas.

Here's quick fix for that. I just used a standard barbed to Female type B fitting, a short length of 1/4" id Air Compressor hose and a couple of clamps. Not pretty but it does the job.

Sounds like the problems a bad pot. The switch for the HF start is still on and that sparking noise comming from inside the machine is probably the contacts for the HF start.

Good trouble...

I'm on my second 300 of Ar and down to 1500psi on my 300 He tank. I've only done 70 feet of welds on the boat frames so far but I did a lot of other welding before I started on them. I've got another...

Here's the first 12 feet of my 21' boat. Fun stuff.. The frames you see are 1/4" 5052-H32 with a 1/4x1-1/2 6061-T6 flange formed then welded to them. These are tacked and ready to be ground and fully...

So the original question didn't really get answered.

A diode in a A/C (alternating current) circuit serves to allow either positive or negative current to flow depending upon the direction that...

On my 250 and other welders I've used the current is set to the maximum level that you do not want to exceed. When the foot pedal is depressed momentarily the pre-flow kicks in if set and then the...
