They're great tools to have! I have a Hypertherm 380 that I got from a mechanical contractor that was liquidating about 10 years ago and it's been my baby...does awesome up to 1/2" mild steel where it's a little slower, but still cuts well. The bummer is, they discontinued it last year so I had...

Bullshit. That bent-up box IS Mancini's fault. Maybe the shipper's the one that crumpled it, but Mancini knows better than to send something like that out without putting it in a second box. I say that because, when I've ordered things like that (valve cover or head gaskets etc) they've ALWAYS...

Small world...my dad did the same thing. He was a Huey gunner, and mechanic'd on the various birds in his group. 101st Airborne '67-'69.

I used to like them. But they've been a pain to deal with in the last couple of years. Covid's no excuse for not being able to process payments properly or communicate in a timely fashion. After some pretty unsavory experiences with them I don't see the need deal with them anymore. THAT SAID...

Good luck Malco :usflag::usflag::usflag:

Somewhat unrelated, but since we're talking lights...my wife got me these what seem to be kinda cheapy 'CAT' branded magnetic LED lights at costco...They're small but bright but to get to the point I left one on in the attic for about a week and a half....when I found it was still on! Dimmer...

Innova's are fine, I have a no-frills $40 one that has served me well for a long time, however my damper is marked out to 50 degrees... If your damper is only marked out to say 15 or 20 you'll benefit from the dial-back type. The tach feature is also nice to have if you don't have some sort of...

Fluke T-1000 multi-tester... how many times have I heard "yeah power's off" only to find things were wired wrong or mislabeled, and still hot...yes I use it on cars too!

Awesome thread thanks Pops!! I just saw it and about choked on my oatmeal laughing....

Just saw this thread...got some sparkys in fbbo land nice! Local 100 Fresno CA here..OP, probably a little overkill but if you can swing it use #8 it will avoid any issues later on..but yep motor full amps should determine.
