So move over here. I have some skills, just could use some of your sh-t. Primitive ? Yea, that's sort of my chosen path as well lol. But hell, - moved from a big place to smaller place back in 09. I sold a bunch of stuff I thought I'd never use or didn't much. Shoot, been here how long and it's like I've collected the same stuff all over again. This little shop is just that little. - Get cluttered easily, but I always know where everything, -until I clean up. Then I can't find anything. Guess the point is I no longer have trhe room I once had, - need you for storage lol. I had a multi process machine for 10 years or so. Sold it before tyhe move and it was hard to sell, - no one really liked the muti-process machines because they were so damn cable heavy...cables everywhere. Now I have two migs that take space so far, - miss the tig, never had a plasma, but really like the Hypertherm, - watching a little powermax 30 right now on ebay lol.

Guess I'll have build a shed where I was going to extend the deck this spring. At least I could shove all the lawn equipment in there lol.

Nice, -shock bolts ? Galvanized or stainless ? Looks more like the galvanizing Ford uses on their bolts - hard to tell sometimes.

Really , yea I guess they're close in relation. Same style as Fords bottom shock mount bolts, they look identical, my originals weren't galvanized tho (reason I noticed lol). At least your using good stuff!

What's the hardness on those, - does it say? , - 10.4's or 10.8's ? Do you even know what I'm talking about?

Sort of multiple choice.
