yall need to be suckin' my population tool :p

plus forgot to mention you will need a fridge for beer and posters of either naked chicks or classic cars, depending on your relationship status.

back on serious notes, total tools have a badass compressor for 7 hundy that runs on regular 10A and is 13CFM 90 liter. i got one. its nice. also morton picked up a really good welder off ebay for dirt cheap, so keep an eye out over there.

just remember to watch your voltages, if you rent you should always make sure your stuff is 10A not 15 cos' you can damage the wiring in your house. if you own its a good idea to get an elec to run 15A to the garage or better yet go 3 phase :) oh yeah, then buy a hoist...

yea, this is a pretty hot debate on the interwebz. personally i would rather not do that in my house (i rent) i have to be honest and admit that i have done it on my mig, but because the compressor drains so much power over about 5 mins, i wouldnt wanna risk it. the mig is only ever on 3 or 4 out of 6 amp settings and its just a brief zip then chill, then zip so much less drain on power.

Go down to Bursons and ask for a twelve inch population tool and it wouldn't hurt to grab a long weight while you are there too.

Both are necessity's for removing and repairing rust.

lol thats gold
