Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Where I live my welding supply shops suck, but if you find a cool one they should have all the parts including gauges to make it work. Only thing they might not have is a shrader chuck, but I am sure some even have them.

Thanks ordered, now I can get rid of that awful license plate flip thing that covers my flat link.

 

In theory having them fill a cylinder(your CO) is no different than them filling my 10lb argon tank. BUT they are use to having blow off valves as insuranc and as such might not take the necessary precautions to keep your CO from blowing a seal.

I would trust a dirtbike shop to fill my COs more than a Gas shop employee.

 

Yeah he obviously had no idea what he was talking about. Kinda felt bad for him after I told him that the same service shop he works for replaced my needle bearing under warranty not more than 3 months ago... You could see it in his face how stupid he felt.

 

Check with BAMF, I thought I saw that they charge them. Benica is not to far away if they do.

 

Last time I asked @JLee his charging tool was broken. That was about 6 month ago.

 

I just had my SAW's charged at the shop that rebuilds my dirtbike suspension, superplush in the city. I had a hell of a time finding a shop around east bay, Berkeley area that does them.

 

I’m thinking of investing in the equipment to do it myself. So nice to be able to just pull the shocks, mess with them and reinstall right away. I luckily have a fab friend 10 min away that charges mine but hate bothering him each time.

 

What does the equipment consist of.......cost?

 

You can buy a pre plumbed setup or piece one together. Parts and a tank for less than 200.00 from what I've seen.

 

I wanted one of those V10 TDI Touareg’s once upon a time. Might still want it.

 

Yeah about $200 can get you set up.

 

So what you’re saying is you’ve handled a lot of other peoples shaft for not a lot of money...

 

this is exactly what i needed to see. Been debating buying similar to do my own rebuilds/revalve if and when needed and maybe do my friends rebuilds.

 

Just want to make sure I’m the only one that gets special treatment and gotta stay clean.
