Reply:8" pipe should do itBuy American, or don't whine when you end up on the bread line.
Reply:thats kinda what i was thinking. the tin cans measure 6'' i beleive but they are square so 8'' pipe should be fairly close guess.just didnt know if someone had allready done this before.MM 251MM 135Lincoln Pro cut 55Bobcat 250Miller Thunderbolt ac/dcolder ac forneyJackson nexgen 3n13-Smith OP setups97 Dodge dieselMakita chopsawJet swivel head bandsawlincoln tig 300/30030a spoolgunpuma port. gas air comp.
Reply:8" PVC and fittings are quite pricy. You might want to think about several smaller pipes instead..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth! Ronald Reagan
Reply:If a 50 lb can is 6" sq.(36 sq. in.), 8" tube is 50 sq. in., and 3 4" tubes would be 37 sq. in.Millermatic 200Hobart Handler 120Victor O/A & Ramco BandsawLincoln 225 ACSnapOn AD HoodMiller XMT304/22AHypertherm Powermax 1650 G3Lincoln Idealarc DC600 w/Extreme 12 VSMiller Digital Elite "Joker"

Reply:You could get away with using 1/4" PVC, but it would just need to be longer. |
