Nice, now I know where I can come to do some metal work :peepwall:

Can't wait to see the fins you crank out now. ;)

:flashie:

Thanks Greg and yes, that's the mag brake. Really looking forward to using it! The cold saw looks really nice, may be a future purchase. Next priority is buying back my old tig welder however.

Rick, any time! Anyone who doesn't own a Torino is alright by me. :poke:

Working on a bigger shop. I have the girlfriend on board to moving into a big shop with living quarters. Or if I can find a just a smaller house with an outbuilding.

Skip, the fins are staying as-is :) , just want to cut everything out that I've already done and make it nicer. Floors, trunk, radiator support/etc.

Jim,

Actually I was kiddingly suggesting that you go into 'fin production' ... cuz as we know, the more fins the better. :D

The magnetic brake is awesome! I got a chance to try one at their plant during a metal forming class. You won't believe to options you have.
Good luck.

More tools! I've been working on the stainless turbo manifolds. Decided I wanted to finish that up before getting into the sheetmetal work.

NOW WE'RE TALKIN' !!!



A guy just has to have some tools!

I'm envious, you got the water cooled torch! I'd be interested to know how you like the HTP once you have some bonding time. :thumbsup:

INTMD8 10-26-2013 09:21 AM

Right you are Greg! Having to tack something up then wait till Monday to weld it at work doesn't help progress.

Sieg, if it's at least as good as the previous 201 model I'm sure I will love it.

Having used the 201 for so many years I didn't even look at other welders, the HTP stuff is great.

I like to do a lot of aluminum welding and that's where the water cooled torch is really nice. Other than that it's not so much of a concern.

Dam Jim

I'm not sure if I'm more envious of your Caddy or your tool collection:headscratch:

Is that 59 on the road yet?

Any new pics of the 57?:topic: More Caddy.:popcorn2:

:cheers:
