    Pulled the trigger on a new Hobart 210 unit for about $825. Really couldn't find any "amazing" deals on it for Black Friday -- and I guess I'm not surprised since it's not a hot item -- so I figured I'd take whatever savings I could get.

    Nice, hope you all had fun! Yeah its almost time to put up the actual fencing. I still left a gap in the posts where I need to do some tractor work for the property drainage where there are some massive 4' in diameter trees that had fallen years ago creating a dam on the unoccupied property next door...
    I had fun, hope everyone else did too!!

    Thank you, had a blast, ended up having some Turkey after all but my buddy cooked it pretty good so I cant complain! Mmmm, now I want Cornish hen, haha...

    Yes it does, and I want some of that too, Im a bit of a protein whore, haha. I would only eat meat if the wife wouldnt make me eat other stuff!

    Good welder. A couple recommendations I would highly suggest...

    Get a gas bottle and ditch the flux core wire!
    And if possible hook it up to a 240v power source.

    Once thats done it will be a badass machine.

    Yeah I like that it bolts to the frame and holds the spare but I can't get ahold of them and I've heard the same for other TW members.

    Anyone have a recommendation for someone to check / fill the nitrogen on Fox shocks? I just put new coilovers on and I think the front left is low. It just doesn't feel right. Need it done on the truck. Thanks in advance.

    I went to ORW, $10 to fill both my Icons on the truck. Just pulled up, filled and done in 5 minutes.

    Yes
    Did they jack it up to droop the shocks ?

    ORW yes BUT you really should have them jack up the truck until your shocks are fully extended before you fill them.

    Nope... damn...

    Newb to truck coilovers here: What's the reasoning for having them extended to be filled with Nitrogen?
