Re: Tig High Frequency Box Help Needed
I am guessing from what you have said that these boxes will work on an Ac or DC welder either one? He had it on an ac weder for aluminum. I have a portable welder that is DC only and goes up to 250 amps. Could run the leads in the shop and use that. The bad part is that I have seen lots of Big welde...

Re: Gun Oil
I think keeping the ways clean and oiled is more important than which oil you use. If gun oil is all you have use it.Back years ago the best I could afford was 10w 30 motor oil.Can do better now but still use it if it hasnt hurt it in the last 28 years dont figure it will.

Re: Harbor Freight Cut Off Saw
Victor You are right about the Quality of the blades making a difference. I use Norton brand 14" blades on mine While they cost more you get about 4 times the life of a cheap blade. When it starts to glaze I take a diamond wheel dresser and go across the face to break the glaze and clean it up....
