Gordon, I have a Craftsman industrial drill press that has served well without problem for 25 years, but i fear that Craftsman tools are not what they once were. Also have a Delta bench grinder, rece

Mike, I have a Hobart mig that I've owned for about 15 years. Have used it extensively to work aluminum. You have to be careful that the cable to the gun stays relatively straight, or the feed will f

When you let Roland know, copy me too. My 60 gal vertical 2 stage IR has been bolted to the floor using the holes in the feet for 7+ years. Should I replace it. It seems to run great and never moves

My experience is that as the blast media gets old, or your supply runs low, you have trouble with the pickup. My solution, not very classy, is to regularly give the media hopper a boot. sometimes it
