  1. When I built my bench I got a 4 foot by 3 foot piece of 1 inch plate out of a scrap bin. Welded legs on it and it was unreal. pretty much impossible to move alone but I used to do alot of stuff with it. Iam defiantly going to look for racking that looks awesome.
  2. yupp it looks not to bad. I would probably paint it all red tho not a fan of the black hood thing.
  3. That table saw is AWESOME I have seen it function in person actually works great if I had room and money I would have one for sure. Oh yea the show is entertaining also.
  4. I don't think its ugly but I would definitely take the fender mount mirrors off no offense to those running them but they just don't look right.
  5. Wow, that thing is pretty cool. It reminds me of an early nova for some reason.
  6. I was following this on another message board for a while now pretty wild! Lucky sob is what that guy is he had it listed as starting at 500 buy it now for 4000$.
  7. I don't care for it all kind of goofy looking. But 1005 hp sounds like fun.
  8. Awesome that was great! Those are some of my favorite cars I think, and it was well done.
  9. History:0 bids I think it will remain like that. with abit more smoothing of the transition it might have looked ok kind of neat I suppose. I can appreciate the work but the way it sits it is just wrong looking.
  10. I don't think its actually Will Castro unless he talks about himself in the third person.
  11. "Brazing is a process for joining similar or dissimilar metals using a filler metal that typically includes a base of copper combined with silver, nickel, zinc or phosphorus. Brazing covers a temperature range of 900ºF - 2200ºF (470ºC - 1190ºC). Brazing differs from welding in that brazing does not melt the base metals, therefore brazing temperatures are lower than the melting points of the base metals. For the same reason, brazing is a superior choice in joining dissimilar metals. Brazed joints are strong. A properly-made joint (like a welded joint) will in many cases be as strong or stronger than the based metals being joined. " I copied that from brazing.com Its pretty easy too and it does work well the map torch alone might not be hot enough. You can buy at homedepot etc.. a map gas/propane and oxygen torch they work really well. Just be sure you have everything ready and in place before you start them those little oxygen bottles run out quick and there like 10$ each up here. http://www.canadiantire.ca/browse/product_detail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=1408474396672982&bmUID=1221929993695&PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524443256940&assortment=primary&fromSearch=true This is the setup you need or similiar look around at garage sales for them I have picked myne for 3$. Works great you can even weld steel with it. dont get a mini kit like this with a cutting ability this is just too small the brazing/welding tip works pretty good tho. I guess the ideal thing to do would be get a real full oxy/accetelyne setup.
  12. Braze it all together should work just as well as welding. Looks sounds like a cool idea.
  13. This is awesome any recent progress I just picked up a chevette for 400$ with basically no rust on it begging for an upgrade like this!
