  1. I wonder if there is a good course to play in Branson?
  2. That is super cool! I didn't know they did that. Yes, I imagine that would make it much faster and less error prone.

    Nope don't own a pallet jack. I have a skidsteer with a set of forks, so I doubt I will ever feel a need for one. Yes because I am so tall!!! Helps keep from bending so much and aggravating the back. the lower table would be nice for larger items or really heavy items, but I think the higher level will work better. Plus the bottom drawer is now about 9" off the floor. The finished top is about 36" AFF so, counter height
  4. I need to get Cody a new hat. He get's some flash. My hat does pretty good at responding. What hat are you looking at?
  5. Seems like that is about mid point for Highland machines. I saw one that was $14k USD. You need to add some of the machine details in the next sewing video. I don't really understand what the computer would do on a machine like that. Is it single needle of double needle, etc. Half of retail isn't really that crazy when you look at how good it works. I spent more than that on my welder. It's downright cheap looking if you're shopping for real estate in Sydney!

    I really wanted them to be semi permanent so I could pull on the vise all I want and not have them slide around. There is so little room in my shop now that there is nowhere else to move them.
  7. That is correct, Dave Patton
  8. Cool. Do you care to share the brand if it's an internationally available machine? I am interested in doing some shopping for a heavier machine.

    That sounds right. I parted one a few years ago.
  10. The wire speed might be a little bit high, but it prevents burn back like that. The gas was on but when the primer burns it makes it look like that. That was a half dozen quick welds. One time I burned through it. I had to keep moving the voltage around depending on where on the edge I was welding. I really just wanted to add enough to then knock it down. So I stacked it in different ways until there was enough there.
  11. What did you buy for a sewing machine? What are you using as a pencil on the fabric?
  12. Wow! Those don't look too good. Is that just a rusty glob or something else? It looks like the lense is cracked and all gobbed up

    It already is. It's amazing how fast flat surfaces in my shop accumulate stuff!
  14. I am in the midst of blocking the whole car and doing the fine filler work. There is always another spot you missed. I am still waiting on my Australian help to arrive! I also had a problem spot on one side of my hood. My hood is a 25 year old after market hood so it has some issues. One was at the upper left corner, it turned in significantly and showed badly against the inspection door. So I added to the edge with the welder. It wouldn't looked so bad if I had stripped the primer back further Shaped it down A little short strand fiberglass to seal it up. It might need a touch of filler, but it is much straighter
  15. I ordered these screws for the turn signal lenses Here is the finished repair on the one signal body The screws had a small plastic washer on them. I thought I would use a small rubber O ring unless there is a better idea

    I lifted these up some on 2x6's and built a top over Thanksgiving

    I believe these are off a 280zx. Free for shipping, otherwise they are going away.
  18. Perfect, thanks. They look really nice like that.
  19. Thanks What high temp clear did you use?
  20. What was the refinishing process for the front calipers?
  21. I don't agree with your assertion, and I was going to write a rebuttal to your post. After having thought about it, I am not going to provide a rebuttal. As I doubt, I will change your mind and you haven't changed mine. It seems like a poor use of time to try. As well as the obvious thread jack it would be. My apologies to @7tooZ for the distraction.
  22. Adhesion should be fine. Skip the epoxy
  23. Patcon replied to jonbill's topic in Introductions
    What is the air dam? It's interesting looking.
  24. I don't know why you couldn't go right over it with color, now that it's knocked down to 400. I think the recoat window refers to running color over color with no sanding in between.
