    WOW had to go digging for the thread..

    Well after the last few weeks of breaking tools.Blew both compressors up was able to build a small 13CFM on a 40ltr tank outa both..Its not big enough to run my air tools but works anyway..The torch melted on my mig at the machine end Have fixed but its just not upto welding what i weld anymore. Then the big electric drill caught fire & was promtly exited from the shed with flames..

    So i brought this this week .







    Its a ROSS brand 150 amp gas/gasless.Have only tried the gasless wire so far but i did buy one of those disposable gas bottles to try the gas wire..I wont be welding in shorts anymore , This thing has some power for a small welder i burnt both me knees when i tried it ..

    I also picked this up today..







    These pics are to show the size differance







    Its about 23 CFM with about 17CFM free air delivery.3 pump belt drive off a Honda 6.5 HP petrol engine its a WTD brand.Has a 100 ltr tank .. the gauges on it where average so i had the gauges off the one that could'nt be fixed all the same only look new so i put them on..& as i'm fussy with my tools since it took me so long to get what i have i realy look after them so the compressor will be repainted .
    I just have to pick up a few things for the compressor tomorrow..There worth well over $2500 new so got a good buy at under $1000..I'm happy so far with it but it has'nt been put to work properly yet..

    So i have a MIG here if you want Jim.Or drifter or anyone realy.Its good to learn with as i fixed it & it does work just not strong enough for what i do..

    The only thing Aus is its what they call a live wire. As soon as the wire hits metal it arks up..My new one doesnt ark till you pull the trigger..

    If I decide to take it, mate, I'll give you something for it, that'll help offset the cost of the new one!!!

    Well i high pressure washed under the wagon the other day. Very good car underneith..& even when i did all the floor there was only 2 very small leaks , didnt even whipe em up as to small to bother..

    I painted the tank on my new compressor & have now put all my air regulator & fittings on it..





    Hey Jim i know i said you could have the trolley with the welder but i ended up moding it to use with new welder as i did'nt want it left on the floor as it gets water over it when it rains..





    & i got the welder out for you ready to go..



    And this is the compressor for you..I put some hose with it & theres a air regulator/water trap with it & some fittings i found in the shed that i dont use..





    Now thers no excuse you'll have to get a series & start work on it so it be ready for next years EXPO. I MAY EVEN TAKE A COUPLE OF OURS DOWN THERE..
