Figured I'd get some now as they just closed the plant in DeWitt Nebraska. They are really almost to nice, but I'll still weld next to them...
 
Haha, no coupons. They are expensive but cool.
 
My buddy built this blast cabinet several years ago and keeps losing his places to store it.

Left vacuum recycles media, and feeds the gun, and the right clears dust. 2x flood lights inside.

End door for loading. I ran three 15A circuits this weekend to feed it. The best part is that my compressor died a bit back and got upgraded to a big 80 gal IR and it can hang with this cabinet running at full tilt. I just added the PVC and filter this weekend to try to reduce the vacuum inside, it's pulling the gloves in so hard you can't move your hands in them.

It’s 6.5 feet wide and 3.5 tall and 3.5 deep.

Nice, you'll use it more than you expect. I keep both glass bead and 80 grit aluminum oxide on hand. I use the AO most of the time, only GB when I need a nice smooth raw finish.
 
there were 3 different off road jack vendors at KOH and 2 like this floor jack $500 to 600, and one guy had a telescoping gear driven jack just under $2k
 
Ya know if you were driving either of the vehicles in your avatar pic, that wouldn’t be a problem :whistle:

Fits, just bigger than expected.

I felt the irony, but it cost me a couple dollars in power, vs $75+ in fuel. For daily driver tasks, it’s a no brainer.

Can’t wait to check it out this weekend.

$75+ ?
Is that daily or just to pick up the jack?
How far do you drive daily?
I drive between 120 and 150 miles a day 7 days a week and I rarely spend $200 a week

My daily mileage is ~30.

Harbor Freight requires a trip to reno, so I took care of other things. ~140 miles, 10mpg, $5 gas, ~$70 in fuel to drive the 91.

While my wife's car was down for a few weeks, she drove mine, and I daily drove the 91 around town. Still love driving it, and it runs great.

But, when my choice is spend gas money, or don't spend gas money....i take the cheap route.

Oh I do the same.
When I don't need a truck I drive my diesel mercedes and get 30mpg
 
Yes has a bladder that holds the brake fluid, then and air pressure to the steel ball. A tight fitting (hopefully) cap goes on master cylinder, then open bleeder screw till no bubbles, close, move on.
