Somewhat related to welder buying... For the last few years my welding "table" was a small piece of 12mm plate with a section of angle zapped on the back by a seagull with metallic diarrhea, the angle got clamped in my vice to give a surface as well as tie up my vice to prevent it being used for anything else etc. Well that's changed! Managed to sell my old DC TIG and my last .22lr for more or less the exact amount needed for the table, got to Machinery house on Friday and it turns out they have a sale starting today so they gave us the sale price and then a further $50 off with their "mates club" deal. It's no certiflat but fuck I am over the moon with it!! Modded some M16 bolts in the lathe, welded on Bunnings F clamps *Don't look too close, I'm still figuring out MIG* Oh and much less related, ol' @Geophy had a mate selling a drill press last month and it's found it's way to my shed too.

Order some of these before it goes in, might save 5 minutes next time lol

Repco brand paint stripper seems alloy safe. It's so shit it takes 2 or 3 applications to get paint to bubble and doesn't seem to touch alloy. It does make skin wrinkle up weird, but not bad enough I'd bother with gloves though

Tonight? Saturday burgers seems like a thing Within an uber or @chris rr ride bludgeable distance of the CBD plz

It's all ready for a couple coats of paint now, trying to decide between pink or purple, might go with both.

TH180 I thought? AKA Holden traumatic

Or have the wheels machined to have seat inserts pressed in

Have heard of them, meant to last about twice as long as iridium plugs. Have seen them marketed as "lifetime plugs" or something like that.

Jeep use 5x127 as well, but I doubt you will be finding 14s on 99+ Cherokee etc.

My last 3 vans it's been no issue at all for WOF having removed seats. Have run through as 2, 4, 5, 7 and 8 seater and the only issue was a missing seatbeat in my old Delica so I just removed the seat again.

Not me.

Someone's ripping you right off. They are the same price most of the time.

Denso VE style pump, just with electric shit controlling the throttle and shit. They went common rail with the 1KD

Now I really wish you had a YouTube series.

Looks like 75x75 should be easy enough for me to get my hands on, or rectangle tube opens up options too

Yeah I'd be keen to give it a go. Been doing 100x100 ones as I've got a full 5m length of it/dunno if I'm equipped or skilled enough to do sheet metal fabricated cans yet.

Was thinking about $100, have a fair bit of time and consumables in them. That's pretty much in line with a smaller China spec baffled can etc. And yeah, can do with either M16 threaded or welded on barb fittings. Hadn't even thought of surge tanks, looks like something I could do too!

Anyone interested? Still got to clean it up a bit and weld the mounts on, just ran out of argon so called it for right now. Plate and SS wool baffling, 100x100, 190 tall, m16 threaded bosses so those cheap SAAS barbs from SCA will go straight in etc.

Rather interesting system, the charging stator also acts as the starter motor https://www.nsu4.nl/france/2pointsdallumage.html

My Hiace is the same, even faster under 1/4.

Made a couple catch cans Even made the hose fittings First one for @GuyWithAviators Next one And cause I couldn't find a tap in the size I wanted on a Sunday arvo I made a drain thing, just needs an O-ring Thinking of making some more to sell, the 2 pictured are both 100x100x200mm, I made plate baffles etc and can make them shorter or taller (up to 2.5m ha!), and can either turn and weld on barbs in whatever size needed or supply ready to bolt off the shelf fittings to

They must have improved again with the latest owners, was absolutely shit and super stingy an owner or 2 back.

These things can wheelie real well! Had one with a Tecumseh on at a wreckers I worked at, was amazing what it would tow around the yard and the abuse it withstood haha

Think I'm getting it figured out again /\ 80Hz, 70/30ish (edit 80/20, -30 on the setting, 0 is 50/50 so -30 would be 80/20) , 120a, pulse 2Hz down to 80a. Filler rod from Bunnings kept giving bright green flashes and leaving the soot marks?? Same amperages and balance, 120Hz.
