Pretty nice is the shaft tight?
Wow,prices have gone up big time.
I picked this one up on sale a few years back for $130
yeah HF stuff went up @ 20% last year alone.
I built a cart to borrow my friends hydraulic hose fitting crimp tool. This is top heavy and nearly killed him the last time he used it. Now it rolls smooth and is very stable.
did the washers come from china also 
We're working on our first big stainless steel project. We purchased a tool called a Tig Brush. It cleans and passivates our mig welds on the stainless. The frame in front has been cleaned and the one behind would be the before cleaning.
It uses electric current to do its magic and you can see the sparks on the brush tip.
After the step in the video, you rinse it off with water. You can also spray a neutralizer on it.
You can also use Tig Brush with a special stencil to etch or burn in artwork.

Yes, there's a chemical that the brush is dipped in. It's all supposed to be non-toxic stuff. There is a pretty decent odor, but you only need light gloves and eye protection while using it. Due to the smell, we like to do it outside. Plus the concrete didn't react well to the stuff that dripped on it; it left white stains.
You don't brush hard either, just lightly brush over the areas.
Dad used to use watered down muriatic acid. Like use in swimming pools.
6" oval tail & brake & backup light plasma cutter template
I got to use one of these this weekend at HumpNBump to weld my buddies trailing arm back together. I’ve always wanted a trail welder, but didn’t like the idea of having to disconnect all my battery connections and being tied to the truck. Needless to say, this will be my next purchase. I was Very impressed.
that thing is badass. Anybody offer a 24 volt plasma torch for trail work??
Dewalt 20v cordless grinder with cutoff wheels. You need a lot of clean, dry air to run a plasma cutter.
before they were small and used air, they were the size of a shopping cart and used inert bottled gasses from cylinders??
I had really good luck with a crappy Chinese plasma torch- only using the little 3 inch plastic water separator on the back of it...
It used a fair amount of air, and was 208-230V, but for trail repairs, wouldn't really be expecting clean cuts on 5/8 plate
In today's world of on board air, and people carrying bottled co2 on the trail, there has to be a way to make something small and useable that runs off 24 volt DC??
