Got home and put together the propane table heater. No instructions but wasn't hard to figure out. It's about waist high and will be perfect on the back porch.

Found it when I went to put the Styrofoam back in the box lol

Well look at that! A waist-high ass burner! Just like in the corny joke I sometimes tell my wife when she's mad at me.

Saw these on Instagram. They were running a deal at Christmas. I am very impressed with them. Super bright, and light, barely know your wearing them...if you are looking for a good head lamp that's not going to break the bank, might want to consider these. Little tip, go look at them...put them in your cart but don't buy them. They will send you a better discount...

There was a industrial vise thrown away at work due to the jaws failing. So naturally i took it home in homes of saving it and rebuilding. From the numbers i've gotten off of the thing, i am not able to find replacement jaws. Anyone here a vise expert? Thanks

bend some aluminum over each side of the jaws, it's soft enough to do the job!

According to the numbers it's a 1948. Farmer that give it to me said it ran and welded great. Quit running a few months back, sent it to a shop, they put a rebuilt mag on it, then a month or so back it quit firing again. He went and bought a new Miller. Itching to have time to fool with it.

AC clutch tools (which I had to modify to meet my expectations). The clutch plate puller (for old style pancake) is a horrible design, I broke two, compared to the newer metric R4. Modified the old to accept the newer push screw.

I’m looking at getting a Fronius Transsteel 2200:


Is it really as good as this guy claims?
