    who else is running a swamp cooler?

    I noticed aspen pads wet out better. Those stupid blue sponge material pads weren't even saturating, just letting water channel down in a few spots.

    rusty tools

    Diluted muriatic acid (lowes $7/gal) to gently eat the rust in a few minutes. You'll need to coat it well with wd-40 or something or it will probably rust again very easily.

    which band saws for metal fab?

    Also, the motor mounting plate is a joke. Remake it with plate as a first project. Also the anti-vibration link v-belts are nice on them (as they are on anything).

    Anyone ever use an Everlast Powerpro 256?

    I've been using a everlast power tig 200dx for the last couple years. I put a new, not absolute garbage torch on it and it's been really good. Great welder for the price.

    If you have 24v I would go with that. motors are more efficient and such at higher voltages.

    General Tech What did you work on Today?

    Yes, it's actually been an excellent AC/DC inverter TIG welder for the price. I've had it for 2 years now. The first thing I did was throw away the crap torch that was supplied with it and went with a small wp-20 water cooled one and built a cooler for it. This new cooler I'm building is going...
