I have a small excavating company I do a lot of repair welding, so I burn a lot of 7018. Sometimes I would need 6011 for certain things. if I can’t get a good clean weld, I might burn 6011 as a root and then finish with a 7018. 7018 is for dissimilar metals. I find that in all position , 7018...

Also, when I was younger man, I would jump on things too quick and lose as well. Too bad I’m so old now I have the knowledge but I can’t jump that quick anymore. Lol

Yep, I’ve learned one thing for sure, through the years who hesitates loses lol

Yep, Tom that’s what I paid for mine and for all I do with it it does nice accurate work not a production shop here

I had a Busy Bee Lathe just like that one, did accurate work it was a bit light for me, but it was decent little machine.

If I was close, and that was legitimate, I would just read a truck who cares how much it weighs.

I have an old Brown & Sharpe surface grinder. It’s a number one . It’s all still works nice good quality stuff.

Are used to have one of those round column mills. It really is surprising how much work you can get done if your patient that’s not a bad price in my opinion it looks in good shape.

I like seeing pictures of peoples shops gives me hope something to aspire to once I realize that shops are not supposed to be storage sheds then maybe I will be able to have one also

That machine is about 20 minutes from me if it’s in Wingham

Those small machines are nice. You can take them apart or carry them in to your basement. Depends on who you are and what you want. I could see you taking one of those to the cottage just to play around with although I suppose it would be better if I was fishing it’s surprising how much work one...

If you use that to launch a satellite, maybe the discrepancy would add up just saying

I would at least try to get that one 10th over a greater distance like maybe 20 feet or so

It’s not too far from me. I already have a decent kneemill . If I was trying to fix it up and make a bit of money on it, I don’t see that there’s any upside. It’s good for somebody that wants to get in to a milling machine at a reasonable price the stuff you can see generally doesn’t bother me...

Lots of iron on that machine won’t be too much chatter
