Are you using a PAPR system with your Optrel Hood or old Miller Hood.

I’m actually kind of curious if you have any opinion of PAPR systems

No, I don't!
I have a Lincoln welding fume extractor that I use when I have to weld a lot!

Excellent work. I think we think alike to a degree. I will be posting more projects soon. I have more experience with woodwork and landscape than metal. Keep up the good work. You got a solid grasp on thinking outside the box. Kirk Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I've been in woodworking for clo...

Just upgraded mine today with Miller headgear 256174, and what a difference! I bought the hood because I love the clarity of the lens, but I rarely used it because I hated the poorly designed and uncomfortable heardgear! The Speedglas was my go-to hood because it was comfortable, regardless of the l...

Very nice! I've used the HF cabinets on different occasions, and they have worked very well!

Thanks for your kind feedback!

I made some trays for my bench dogs to be used as additional and height adjustable work surface, or as a walk way along the sides of my welding table, if I have something tall on my table top to weld. Welded frames from 1 1/2" mild steel angle. http://6ldesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/20...

Thanks for all the kind responses!

I've had good experiences with all the 14" Dewalt blades!
The guy who is sharpening my blades doesn't like to weld replacement teeth to the Evolution blades.
He said that they are very finicky in response to heat input!
I had no problem with the Dewalt ones in that respect.

I have a 4x8 CNC plasma water table, and would like to see how others efficiently clean their table and slats! http://6ldesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/20180331_163820-1024x768.jpg I used a needle scaler to clean the slats. What do you use to get rid of the dross? http://6ldesigns.com/wp-cont...

I can't help myself as a German! It's hereditary and in my genes!!

Thanks, and it works even better then it looks!

Here is my 5x10 table, top is 3/4" with 5/8" holes, 3" on center. Just completed it a few weeks ago! https://i2.wp.com/6ldesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/20190206_213225.jpg?fit=1024%2C768 https://i0.wp.com/6ldesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/20190206_213244.jpg?fit=1024%2C...

I have several Knipex pliers in my shop, and love them all!

Just got a sample can today from my welding supplier, and I'm excited to give this a try.
Thanks for all the previous posts and possible applications!

I've cut a lot of tubing with this homemade setup over the last three and a half years, and I couldn't be happier!
It's still as accurate as it was the first day!

All the pics of this project are back for all who want to see!

I like them and use them a lot! I haven't found anything better to remove mill scale without gouging the material!

I bought a ShopSabre 4x8 table a year and a half ago, and I can only say the best about both machine, and customer service!
A big benefit is that the machine is built only 3 miles from my shop!

Here is the setup under my welding table. http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm189/wolfraidermn/Bike%20Shop/Welding%20Table/20141113_195655.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm189/wolfraidermn/Bike%20Shop/Welding%20Table/20141113_195627.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm189/wolfraidermn/...

I cut everything on my 4x8 CNC plasma table eversince I got it a month ago and love every minute of it! http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm189/wolfraidermn/Bike%20Shop/CNC%20Plasma%20Table/20161105_111826.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm189/wolfraidermn/Bike%20Shop/CNC%20Plasma%20Table/20...

I can only agree with the comments made here!
Bought a Hypertherm PowerMax 85 six weeks ago and feel I will never look back!
This thing rocks on my CNC table!
I'd rather spend money right once, then wrong many times over!

I bought a little EVO MAG 42 a few months ago, and it has worked well for my needs.
Very affordable and dependable!
