admin

Hey guys just bought myself a tig finally got a syncrowave 210 and so far so good just a little confusing but just wanted to share it and I set up a section of my parents basement(I'm only 22 for those wondering why my parents basement)  to do Home projects and side work when it comes in. Looking to getting a few moreTools, but getting there! Ignore my messy scrap bin lol but there is a plasma cutter and stick welder in that picToo

Reply:What kind of ventilation do you have?  In a basement, that would be important...

Reply:It is a nice looking shop. I like the assortment of bench grinders. The arbor press needs to find a permanent home post haste.
Reply:Very nice.  I like the broom.  I'd add fire extinguishers and do ZERO woodworking down there.  Sawdust plus mig sparks in a basement, even with that broom, no good.
Reply:Nice shop. Let the man do what he is doing. He isn't a moron, why does everyone have to nitpick and put in there two cents? I am all for the suggestion of some ventilation but give all the other comments a rest, jeez.HTP Invertig 201Lincoln Idealarc SP250Miller 180 AC StickBy farmall:They should have held the seagull closer to the work, squeezing evenly for best deposition.
Reply:If you have the room for a 12x16. Shed. You might be safer. We tiled the floor in one and hardy backered the walls. Ran power for lights and machine.  It's cheaper to burn down the shed then you mothers house.   Also I would be afraid that smoke seating itself into the wood.  Leaving a odor over time.
