    Home Brew Rebuild and Body Work

    A wire fed FCAW flux cored arc welder is probably the best in terms of value and quality of the weld for a beginner. You can always add a gas hose and change the wire type later and make it a MIG. Stick welding on body work isn't recomended as it is easy to warp and burn through. Eastwood...

    Thomas Skid Steer (Opinions)

    There is a skid steer for sale by me that I'm considering purchasing but I'm not familiar with this brand of machine. I have many hours in the seats of Gehls and Bobcats, but until today I never saw a Thomas. I think they're manufactured in Maine or New Brunswick Oh Canada. Its a T170 model...

    Low Gear on Deuce

    My 3053A is somewhat difficult to put in 2nd gear from a standing start. I have to push forward on the stick and bring the clutch up half way and it will engage. Worn syncro rings are probably the culprit.

    * Urgent TM help req. MEP009 Genset*

    My point was that a residential electrician should not be expected to know much beyond wiring a three way switch :P and thought your department would benefit contacting a more qualified person. I apologize NEIOWA for sounding haughty and cavalier. I take no offense for the drone comment...

    That chassis a' twistin. eeeeeeee :o It looks like the front axle is just along for the ride. It doesn't look like it's engaged. That is pretty neat though.

    * Urgent TM help req. MEP009 Genset*

    I must be very spoiled then:wink:. I suggest befriending an IBEW Union electrician because things like phases,motor control, switch gear, generators, transformers, voltage etc. are child's play to them regardless of whether they're MIL or Civi. I will speak my bro (he is one) and ask his...

    * Urgent TM help req. MEP009 Genset*

    The scope of an electrician's knowledge "should" go light years beyond the concept of just "hooking up the wires." :o

    Dodge power ram

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Dodge po I suggest purchasing parts from Summit Racing or Jeg's. You can get everything you need in one catalog and both are priced similarly. As far as engine swapping; go to www.advanceadapters.com It sounds like a very fair price if...

    The bosses modified M105A2

    I like the dark green paint. What color is it? I'm jealous of the driveway and hate the manicured landscaping. My driveway now is RCA. It’s strong but not pretty. I'm saving up for those concrete steel reinforced waffle pavers. They are cool because you don't have to worry about drainage...
