    New Welder

    8/3 plastic coated. I run my power on top, so it's easy to get at it. I only ran it about 24" from the panel so no worries. I bought a Cooper 40/50amp plug and of course a 40amp breaker.. the shipping was pretty good via fedex at a flat $100. Here's a link to the valve I bought. I can't claim...

    New Welder

    Well, I've now got everything hooked up. 8/3 electrical cable is a bitch to work with. But I now have a 40amp circuit breaker and plugin hooked up and the welder is live. turns on and everything. still can't use the tig though. Need some special quick connecters which I think I finally found on...

    New Welder

    So I finally finished my air and argon input to the welder. The three way valve switches between the 2 without having to rewire everything. Second air filter to clean my dirty air. along with pressure gauge. I bought a gauge, but it has the wrong size so once again, back to princess auto.

    Well I blame This Old Tony for making me purchase a TIG welder. After looking around, I wanted a TIG/stick/plasma since I already have a MIG welder. Eventually I found this Everlast PowerPro 256Si for a fair price on Amazon.ca shipping from Canada prime. Unfortunately they were out of stock. I...

    Let there be Light

    That's all I did. Replace the T12 bulbs I had with T12 LED's from Home Depot. I bought 6500k 2100lumen tubes which are super white and bright. 3000k is soft, whereas 5000k is natural I believe. Pic's of the box I used to replace the tubes next to them. close up of the bulb box. I don't know how...

    Let there be Light

    goto homedepot and pick up a couple of 6500k T8/T12(depending on what you have) bulbs and replace just one set of bulbs. 6500k are ALOT brighter than all the others. it's a very sharp light unlike the 3000k bulbs which are closer to the flourescant's you already own. You'll go back to get a case...
