I rent where I live, so I don't always have access to 220V.

What would be the next size up from the tote oxy/acetylene cylinders? Looking for something that I can use to cut, without refilling or breaking the bank. I don't want the size most shops have.

I have seen where some become brittle.

How is the hardness? Heard of doing this.

How small of a set up do you use? What size would be the most economical without being too small or big?

Got to check out all their stuff.This was something new.

Get cooking with your cranium. Look at my Facebook page Yesterday's Junk. Copy and improve what I got.

Has anyone else, tried this. I bought some the other day, and tried it on a strap style hinge, that I could not open by hand. I sprayed the hinge, and in a few seconds, I could open it. An hour later it would open smoothly.

Probably, because there is no penetration.

I would agree, that is what I was wanting to know. If you notice, there is no penetration, almost how an epoxy would work. Gimmick or not? What is the true application?

Yes, I did watch it. Might have to try it too.

Not hard. I had my grandson do a simple project for his mom. If you are on facebook, check out my page, Yesterday's Junk.

Thanks for the replies. I am currently using the Harbor Freight brand, which isn't bad, but throws more sparks than the Hobart brand. I think I am returning to the Hobart wire.

Low temp welding rods for steel.....really? I have seen these advertised for aluminum, and they work, as per videos I have seen. Do

Post in Craigslist also.

Made these from railroad anchors and spikes.

Thank you.

Thank you. Some things just pop into my head, and I will make it. Only in the last 10 years, I could do this.

I do junk art as a hobby, this is my latest. I do have a page on facebook, called "Yesterday's Junk". You can see what I have made there.

I do home repairs and hobbies with my welder. I am using .030 solid wire through my HH140. What is the best bang for your buck, or best all around use welding wire? I used Hobart brand for a while, then switched to Harbor Freight brand, Vulcan, and it has more sparks and splatter. How do other...

Me too!

It is, and to have it delivered for free, is even better.

I have been looking at the 12 pc Sunex screwdriver set to replace my mismatched screwdrivers. Lowe's wants $77.15, and Home Depot wants $43.68,. That is a $33.47 difference. Amazing how companies price items.

If it gets ran into, or damaged, I'm not out a lot of money.

I have a 97 Jeep Cherokee and a 2020 Subaru Outback, that I absolutely hate putting gas cans in and other items which may be as such. Don't need it for luggage, or I would have bought a better one,if there is such a thing.

I ended up buying the H.F. carrier for $39.99. The price was right.

I was wondering if it would be cost effective to make one or get a HF cheap one.

Has any one fabricated a trailer hitch cargo carrier? I looking for an idea to use it for gas cans, not luggage, and it would hold 2- 5 gal cans.

Needed a guard to prevent my trailer from coming in contact with my car bumper. This was made from scrap I had laying around.

Very nice clean job.

I would want a torch to cut

Are the small tote like oxy-acet welders worth it? I would just need it to heat up bolts or an occasional cut. How about fill ups? I don't have room for the larger tanks.

Hanging in the house

My wife wanted me to make a bat. This is made from part of a freon tank, railroad spike, rebar, and fabricated ears and legs.

I own the Hobart Handler 140. The reason I purchased this brand was the warranty.

Where's your "Made in the U.S.A.", label?

Great idea, and great job!

Yes, for what they are for $1, you bet I'm buying them.

I use a Weller BP645 battery operated soldering tool, which is great for small circuit boards.

Dealing with this issue now! Took the little "box" / lens aprt to find 2- 3volt batteries in there. Tested them and one only had 0.2 volts. I am de-soldering them and replacing with new ones. Mine is a Metal Man, I bought from Cornwell Tools. I just bought a far more superior helmet from Hobart...

Here are a few items I just finished

Lovin' it

Thank you!

I might be beating a dead horse, but I will ask any ways. I have a Hobart Handler 140, and I would like to know if it is possible to use a 25 ft 12/3 extension cord. As of yesterday my garage door broke and I need to do a couple of projects. Your opinions and experience welcomed....thanks!

Yes, this is how I do it. DON'T step in the water afterwards, that smell stick to your shoes.

I like it! Does your friend have a website? Check out my page on FaceBook ....Yesterday's Junk I do sell on occasion as well as give some away.

Love it! Great job, looks good too, and seems to be multi-functional.

I love this! Are you using any specific size of 2" sq. tubing?

A few more.

my newest lamp

I have a bunch of weld art, or yard art on my facebook page, Yesterday's Junk.

I have the Hobart Handler 140, love it and easy to use.
