Eh you can find ovens like mine for cheaper. I love mine by the way, I’m glad I bought it despite so many telling me no.

Yeah you got it for a steal! Hope I can find one when I’m in the market for it.

Yeah the deal you got isn’t typical. You aren’t going to find ovens like that all the time.

I’ve used the blaster on my bmw. I’ll probably build a cabinet big enough to toss a wheel in if needed.

Got asked to do a pair of frames that the company went out of buisness and the frames cost 500 bucks. They were black but now brown.

I’m worried the spring hinges might not hold up to 400 degrees. Other than that, obviously removing the lense, any other thoughts?

Got asked if I wanted to buy a full blown commercial unit. 8k for the booth, 8k for the oven. Oven takes gas, booth takes 220v.

It would take a shop. I’m trying to figure out if that’s a deal on the equipment.

Wife wants these outdoor hanging lights. Problem is they need to hang from soffit. That not being very strong we tried command hooks. Those lasted about 2 storms. So now I have some anchors and hooks. Problem is they are silver.

No problem. Let’s just powder coat them!

I should have tapped off the threads. I had to chase every one so I could turn the nut around and it work properly. Just didn’t think.

I really like how they came out even if no one will ever notice.

How hot does your oven need to get for coating to work? Like the lowest you could run?

Ok. I have a buddy with a small meat cooker that goes to 300 i think. I just liked how small it was as I would have mostly little projects.
