Yuh preaching to the choir, bro.
Not me and dem again. Although what they are doing will suffice, it still can be done better.

[Strugglerzinc]

99% of so called welders have no idea what they are doing
The mere fact that they use 6013 rods says a lot

Went Edoos asking for 7014 high fill rods, man watch me like i crazy and told me it have nothing like that.

Bought this fella yesterday, a 4.7HP 7" grinder! Cost me $1430 in Allied. Got kinda fedup of working with the smaller 4 1/2" grinders and decided to get something with a lil more grunt..

SSL had the Milwaukee and Makita 7" for $15xx each. They also had a more compact 7" Makita that felt easier to maneuver and lighter. I chose the Dewalt based on price, but either of the set would be a great buy.

7" grinders will take some getting use to.. the extra weight can be a challenge in tight spots. Otherwise, they cut like crazy!

[pugboy]

I bought similar size Makita in whscott sale a while back for $1200 or something like that
I ended up selling it, too much effort to hold it, lol

I prefer to buy the cheap thin harborfreight discs, they cut much faster than regular thickness cutting discs

[Chimera]

as we on the topic of tools

i want a mini bobcat with backhoe, auger,cement mixer and landscape rake attachments lol

sooner or later

[Chimera]

on another note

i have a reverse camera system installed in a car, the new rearview mirror clips onto the existing mirror buts its too heavy for the existing mirror so it always drops down when driving

it doesn't drop off the existing mirror, it just goes down with the weight and always has to readjust

is there any compound that i can use on the existing mirror that will give it more resistance/strength to hold up the new clip on mirror?

I does wonder what they does really sell.
Called for a tongs and a right angle clamp and they had no idea what I was speaking of.

Low weight engine oil or 2 stroke oil works fine as far as i know.

[pugboy]

you can get a 160amp inverter locally for $1200
all them inverters made the same place...

I bought one and trying to get proficient in stick welding.

Initially took it for a friend to try out, he said it was much smoother running than
the regular ac Lincoln 225 everybody uses.

U lie! Where can I check for one?
I know Bhagwansingh have the Campbell Hausfeld for $1000 but that is only 70amp. That is not enough. Edoos have a 200amp for $2800.
