    Well I’m pretty sure you paid like $700 for it 6 months ago. I read it as though you just sold it for $1200.

    Got started on the bumper today. I’m getting halfway decent with this oxy acetylene torch! Will start on the wings tomorrow. Three 1/2 grade 8 bolts per side. She ain’t goin nowhere.

    I got it a year ago thank you very much. $200 to rent a softopper for the year isn’t too shabby

    One day. My first step is to get an air compressor. Plus the 240v circuit my dryer on is only 30a and most plasmas are a bit higher, like 45.

    I was looking at some dual voltage ones yesterday. The ones I saw only like 1/8” on 120v lol that’s silly.

    I just looked at the budget though and I’m gonna go get an air compressor tomorrow. One step closer.

    Yeah its a joke on 120 volt. But honestly still better then torches.

    You know adding a 50 amp below a panel is super easy...literally 15 minutes and 25$

    If my garage wasn’t all pretty with drywall I would. Plus the panel is old af and would probably burn the house down.

    No need to patch any drywall. It would like like it was meant to be there.

    Yea, I added a 220v 50a outlet in my garage to run my welder. But then that welder ended up at the shop and now I have a wimping welder.

    I do appreciate it but I’m gonna hold off. Mainly due to being a rental place. It’ll just make me get better with a torch lol
