Hello, after a fair absence.
I recently bought a Lincoln Ranger 305D at auction, unseen (you know where this is going...)
Does anyone happen to have a picture or diagram of the wiring connections to the main PCB? One of the connectors is out with a damaged plug and it’s impossible to tell...
Make yourself a mixing stick out of a bit of flat bar with notches cut or lines scribed at the correct ratio for your product- i.e for 7:1 cut a notch at 7cm and one at 8cm. Do this for a few different heights in the same ratio (3.5cm + .5cm) etc etc. Works in inches too!
Use any parallel...
+1 for the expensive Milwaukee ones, they’re the business and take a few twattings on the end without kinking or buckling. Last for ages too.
Milwaukee used to do a range of cheaper blades as well that weren’t branded torch/axe/etc, don’t know if they are any good.
Solid advice from everyone there, cheers. I’ll check out that video and see if I can learn something about what I need, and report back when I’ve got it one in hand and up and running (or not as the case may be!) Good advice on looking at a seller with a decent rating so there should be some...
Might be showing my ignorance of plasma cutters already but I had thought that Cut50 was just a generic name for a 50A plasma cutter? Seems to be a lot of different ones described as cut50, I was wondering are they all equally hot and miss Chinese no guarantese or are there any “non-brand”...
Hello after a fair absence,
First thing, I hate Amazon, it’s everything I find distasteful in gimme gimme gimme cheap ****e consumer capitalism. Also the destruction of local independents, poor working conditions, monopolising global society seemingly for the benefit of one soap box...
Thanks, I could go with that but couldn’t tell if there was anything else. Quieter is fine anyway, direct drive makes a hell of a noise.
That’s disappointing... anyone else weigh in on the same?
I was really hoping I would be able to get the odd rattle of a needle scaler and run an air powered...
I tried three different Lidl’s on my way home yesterday - No chance of a plasma. Couple of the bandsaws still in and one had a heap of 100A arc welders (never looked at price or spec)
Just about to pull the trigger on a bigger compressor myself (50L draper storm force isn’t fit for anything but car tyres)
- Ignorant question but can anyone actually tell me why belt driven compressors are considered better than direct drive?
- would that wolf 90L be capable of running a...
I recently bought a stealth 200LT and I’m happy with it, welds away fine, good duty cycle, decent case, handy.
I paid £276 inc Vat for mine about four months ago so would hope there’s still some kicking about cheaper than this one...
Been somewhat on the back burner with other things going on, dog is happy spending the nights in her box in the garage at the minute but as I was cutting up some pipe to make raised beds this morning the pup and me had a eureka moment..
This one didn’t really fit in any of the other sections but might be of interest to some of you.
A few weeks ago I found a lovely old hardwood beam washed up above the high water mark on a fairly inaccesible but of shore.
Of course it had to be salvaged and the only reasonable way was to get...
I would say if you’ve got a 2” plus of good concrete and your not too close to the edge of the pad you would be fine with the brackets.
I’ve used the brackets to put a 20m straight run of fence beside my house is a fairly wild location. Timber screwed into a big greenheart timber beam that I...
I would say you’re making a long way of a short(er) job if you’re planning to pour the concrete just to bolt posts to. Those brackets are handy and work well if you have to fence along an existing solid pad but otherwise I would just be stone packing or postcreting the posts in the ground?
Just planning to order one of these myself, how did you get on with it? Recommended? They’re up to about 80 sheets delivered for me now but still a good price for true colour if it’s any good?
I have the Clarke 1/2” corded and it’s as good as any I’ve used (except for having a cord...) if that won’t undo wheel nuts your wheel nuts are far too tight imho

Drop these guys an email if you’re interested in the history of it, they were very helpful when I set about an old neep hasher (Bamford’s perfect patent root cutter)
For me yes, I’m not at all keen on rylock or chain link etc in this application, always think it looks like half a job and the required wooden framing always gets chewed, turns green, rots and ends up looking ****e. So galv panels best option for me, if they are good quality they should follow...
