  4. I have one of those 12 dollar swing type sharpeners i got from grizzly.com set up on my 12" disc sander and its perfect for bits of all angles. It will even make a regular bit into a perfect flat bottom drill for the times you need one. But i don't think it would work on the bullit ones with the extended point...Bob
  5. Its a 1962 model. Grizzly.com just bought out SBL and they have the builders cards for 19 bucks...Bob
  6. I have 5 metal lathes and would be lost without them. I am the mr fixit of the neighborhood. Everyone brings me their parts to fix...Bob
  7. I see that stuff almost daily come into my shop. Someone's neighbor got a welder for his birthday and now he is a welder. Granted we all start someplace but i don't remember ever doing work like that. Here are 3 pics i had handy.. Pic 1 My driveshaft wobbles... Pic 2 My mower needs welded and my neighbor just fixed it.... Pic 3 Can you fix my wood splitter. My uncle tried to weld it and now it needs done right...Bob
  8. Ever wonder how they make exp metal? Here is a video link...Bob Expanded Metal Video by AMICO
  9. As Torin said not really. The slag just falls off. I found pcs a few inches long today in my drive and that was a week ago when i did it...Bob
  10. Yours is in here pic 4 or 5 and some info...Bob Page Title
  11. Here's another one i made for my machine. I wanted a bigger thumb head. Then i wacked off some flats with my metal shaper...Bob

  17. Craftsman lathe sites, but they are on Yahoo. What does your SN start with 109 or 101 because there are two different makes of 6" lathes...Bob atlas_craftsman : Atlas_Craftsman Metal Working Machines

  18. I have a bottle of CO2 and a bottle of 75/25 and i went back to the CO2 for 90% of my welding. One reason is i can "waste" some of the cheaper CO2 outside in the wind because i turn it up a little. But the 75/25 is better for thin stuff. Depends what the steel is for splatter. HRS leaves more splatter then smooth CRS type steels prob because of the scale...Bob
  19. Actually ITW owns both brands, they compete against each other. I have a MM185 which prob would compare to a new Miller MM210 or so and mine is also rated for 3/8" plate but on small parts you can fudge that a little. Here are a few pics of 1" plate welded to 3/8" plate with Dual shield gas fluxcore and CO2. I wouldn't want to do it all day but a few parts won't hurt...Bob
  20. Antenna brackets. Made from 1" and 3/8" plate. 1 1/4" Holes bored in my lathe and welded with my MM185 w/CO2 and Inweld Dual Shield .035 fluxcore wire...Bob E71T-1.pdf
  21. Here's some good info...Bob Safety and Health Topics: Hexavalent Chromium
