I have the dewalt multipurpose 14inch saw your talking about, I just last week had to get the blade sharpened it was about 30 bucks at my tool warehouse. The blades are expensive but the do last a while(I mostly cut 45 degree angles in 1/8th wall square tubing). I recently bought a second blade as a...

I will try diamond ground and E3 by bearing to see the difference, thanks for the In depth advise about the diversity and strength of different brands. It just stinks that all these companies keep sending these products elsewhere to be manufactured. Not for nothing I would pay more for the USA label.

What do you prefer,leather, cotton or hybrid(miller weld-x,indura or traditional fr). I use a cotton long sleeve shirt when I am mig or tig welding and leather when I'm stick welding.

I like it, nice

Thanks for the info, I went to my lws and picked up a pack of 1/16 th throriated by weldcraft. I'm going to go to airgas and try the radnor brand too. I will try them both and play around with them. Thanks

Which tungsten electrodes do you prefer? Weldcraft, sylvania,radnor etc...?

Thank you, Steve . Eventually once I recoup some money I will upgrade to better filters but for now I'm good. I love having a plasma cutter, unfortunately this completes my toy list. Just kidding Learning tig will be next thanks again

Today I tried putting the all the filters on the plasma end of the compressed air and had no issues with water in the line. Worked great, thanks for all the advice and recommendations. Thanks Steve

Wow, that's a lot of info, just wondering if I should move my air filters to the plasma cutter end rather than at the compressor end. To remove as much moisture as possible before entering the plasma cutter or leave it the way it is? Thanks again and keep it coming I'm considering all the options he...

Thank you Steve that's exactly what I needed to know, I am a hobbyist so spending a lot of money on filtering air is not something I need to do right now. Thanks again

Thanks for all the info, yesterday I hooked up my plasma cutter from my compressor with a 3/8in 40 micron air filter( at the compressor end) and a inline desiccant dryer/filter (at the plasma cutter end). It ran great smooth cutting. Only have one question I still had some moisture getting through, ...

I recently bought a hypertherm powermax 30 I was just wondering if I should put an air filter on the compressed air I am feeding it with and if so which kind. Any recommendations or preferences? Thanks Steve

That is exactly what I needed to know and made in the USA awesome. Thanks for the info, Steve

I have been looking into a cutting torch for a little while and went to airgas. I ve heard about the standard names Smith And Victor, but he told me about radnor. He told me that victor makes the radnor kits, does anyone know if there is any truth to this and are they as good

Newburgh,New York about 60 miles north of New York City.

Awesome, thanks Delray Della I am going to contact them and make a road trip. Thanks again steve

Thank you for the input ,I was looking at home depot the other day at casters I just don't know if these are decent or junk. Do you guys know where else I might be able to find quality casters( I live in new York ) besides the Internet? I will definitely be using a swiveling and locking caster for m...

Hello again, I'm building a welding table and was wondering what size casters I should use. The table is 60 inches long and 24 inches wide with 1/8 x 1 1/2 in square tube. The top will be 3/8 inch plate. I need to move it around my garage so when I'm finished it can be stored. Thanks for any feedbac...

thanks for the input im looking into the Everlast pp50,thermal dynamics cutmaster 42 or Hypertherm 30. It seems these machines are pretty good,but im a little weary about where you get supplies for everlast besides on the web. I prefer to use my lws for my consumables. but damn the price is right fo...

Hello again, I was wondering if anybody has any input on a good plasma cutter. I am still new to the welding scene, but I enjoy doing projects and fabrication. I would be cutting steel for making decorative signs and ornamental things so i wouldnt be cutting anything heavier than 1/4inch plate. So w...

thanks for the info, I have really no other steel supply dealer close to me so as long as I know that it is decent pricing I will use that supplier. I will look into the scrap yard or welding shop idea. Maybe I can find some in my area.Thanks again for all the input.

Thank you for the reply, that is exactly what I needed to know. I am using a MIG welder(lincoln 180C W/75 -25 gas with .035 wire) but am still very new at the welding part and that is why I figured this would be great practice. One other question I do have though is I priced out 1 1/2x 1 1/2x 1/8th ...

Hello all, Im a hobbyist welder havent been welding very long but am interested in making a cabinet for the garage to hold food items and some household items. I am hoping to use 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 x 1/8 square tubing for the frame. My question is this to heavy and can I get a thinner gauge square tubing...
