My redneck dust extractor ready to go tomorrow... ..and neat that my cheap spot welder arrived on Purolator about 10 minutes after I noticed that the right fender to headlight bucket's spot weld had let go. Can just get this unit up in there to weld it.
Always thought it would be handy to have a spot welder when working on these old cars. The arms are short, but still quite a bit a guy could use it for.
Princess Autos (our version of Harbour Freight) cheap one, on sale for $170CDN($135US) vs reg $260 This is galvanized heating duct material..
I have the HF version. It works pretty well. I purchased another set of longer/wider tongs. There's a guy on ebay that makes a bunch of different sizes/shapes for these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/12-WELDING...b&brand=Miller&_trksid=p2047675.c101195.m1851
I have the same one Wayne works nicely. I see they are selling the 220 version again. How long for shipping Wayne? Couple of days??
Was almost a week before it was "shipped".. but that was a Saturday.. long weekend and then Purolator didn't pick it up unti Wednesday night. Depot fawked me around and delivered Monday. So two full weeks.. Pretty easy to make your own longer arms for the cost of some bar stock..
Been jumping around like a pogo stick the past week from project to project, but think I'm back on track..
