    Laptop Rebuild Help Needed

    what will you use it for? my shop computer is used for streaming audio and YouTube video's on how to do things. If that's as much as you want (specifically, no windows apps), install Linux Mint and never look back. Mint (or Peppermint which I use) is very windows-like and comes with Firefox...

    Wanted Couple feet of 2" x.180 wall

    I just checked and it fits just fine. Hitch receivers are typically 3/16" wall x 2.5" sq so you have an 1/8" of margin with a 2" hitch tube.

    Once your drops are picked through for legitimate projects let me know what you want for the remainder. I could use the TIG practice on real tubing.

    Wanted Couple feet of 2" x.180 wall

    I bought this stuff for the two supports for a storage platform I made for the back of a travel trailer. I had a mechanical engineer at work run an analysis assuming a dynamic load of 150lb generator and said I was good with .120 wall tube. That tray is cantilevered out about 18" from the...

    Can we talk tool chests?

    I had a pair of Can-Am 3-drawer CD cabinets for years.. With the onset of flash drives and streaming audio I sold off all my CD's and didn't need the cabinets any longer. After 3 months on Craig's list with no takers I had a "Duh" moment and realized they aren't CD cabinets at all, they are...

    Garage wall sheeting & storage ideas

    I tried breaking up a couple of sticks of PVC so I could put them in the trash barrel. A saw was too much work so I smacked them on the curb to break them and ended up with a chunk stuck in my forehead and 20min work collecting the pieces. I hate to think what it would do with 150psi behind it.

    Garage wall sheeting & storage ideas

    Never use PVC pipe for air lines. When it fails you get shrapnel. Copper pipe works fine, Black iron works fine, and specific Pex airline kits work fine. I used black pipe for the short run of line to the regulator, filter, and hose reel (on the other side of the wall). The compressor sits...

    Drawers are the best thing ever in a welding cart. Get a silverware drawer organizer to hold your tungsten and stuff Mine are 20" front to back on 24" full extension slides to extend the back of the drawer past the top handle for the cart. If I were to do it again, I'd put two...
