    Re: MWEST where are you

    There is a guy on Facebook who used to sell homefills and concentrators, his name is Wesley Mclarty. I think that might be the same guy.
  5. Re: nomad still has not made good on the feb 4th transaction

    You can't troll the ultimate troll. If you want to get to him, report his posts selling pipes with prices on it. A few reports and bye bye facebook.

    Not Mine: Re: Dino Jacks

    I've heard of people brazing new random junk blades on thrashed rare or expensive jacks and passing them off as "new". But this has to be a joke.

    Re: Problems with checking

    I believe heavy teal is a chromium color so if you encased it I would blame that. But the striking white also has a history of being somewhat incompatible with other colors and random cracking, I've...

    I do believe this color is back in production, but strangely not available for you guys in the US yet. I've gotten a newer batch of it a month ago and it looks just like the OG white but with a...

    Re: OxyFrog VS Hvo

    I disagree, I've been pretty sure for a while the active compression control is just a small 1/2 hp or 1hp Variable frequency drive like the ones Wolf Automation sells. Scott always cleverly dodges...

    Want To Buy: Re: looking for trashed gear

    Any decent lapidary supplier should be able to get you a thin blade, and arbor adapter to suit your saw. I find the electroplated blades come really thin and give cleaner cuts compared to...

    Re: Hvo newb question

    I also put a drier/filter after my tank, but it's been purely to keep debris out of my torch should the tank rust slightly. If your cons are working properly the air does not need water removed.

    Re: Northstar and TAG

    This is the most likely outcome in my opinion. Paul wanting to retire is highly likely at his age and I think your right that Northstar may either buy the recipes or produce the color for Paul. ...

    Yeah, from what I've heard that pretty accurate. Your basically considered a semi skilled factory worker. The numbers I gave were the highest I have seen here in Australia where wages are a little...
  17. Re: Anyone else ever consider getting a "real job"?

    In general scientific jobs do not pay super high wages. Most are hourly wages, and all the ones I've seen were approx 50-70K a year at most. I'm sure there are exceptions to that for master...
