Re: Digital display problem on Lincoln V160-T
If you have some spare time on your hands, try re-soldering some of the connections on the circuit boards. Often a cold solder joint will cause this sort of problem. Also, check the color of the pins on any connectors. If you have a lousy connection, it will create heat and discolor the pin. Another...

Re: Makita Cordless Grinder
I've just started collecting Makita cordless tools and I like them.
They seem to have just enough power to do the small jobs.
I've also invested in a Triton track saw for accurate cuts.

The Makita Cordless brushless 5" grinder arrived this morning at 7am. In Canada, the best price I found was at http://bcfasteners.com/ Free Shipping was a bonus and it got here pretty quick. I installed a 4" cup style wire brush and did some work on my truck. My first impressions are prett...

Re: What do you do for fun?
When it comes to music, my latest endeavor is to learn to play the Chapman Stick. Here's an artist who lives close to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqrW3MHsuEs Aside from welding and welding subjects, I am a very, very good ("professional" level) jazz trumpet player - if I wanna be.

Re: Man Cave / Money Pit
I've decided to build a quick attach system for the loader.
I looked at a lot of ideas on the internet and I like this one.
The loader will get used more often with more implements.

I could always install one of these blades, if I decide that the teeth aren't to my liking. It's nic...

Re: Man Cave / Money Pit
I've edited the bucket pics.
With a few modifications, it should fit fine.
It's actually really close to the size that I was looking for.

The price was $125 each. Definitely better than the cost of materials.

Re: Stickers
I used to collect stickers, then one day last year, I went to an auction.
I picked up a vinyl cutter for $90 (including computer and software)
https://www.summausa.com/shop/category/summacut-series/
Now, I make all sorts of creative stickers, just for the fun of it.

Thanks for the offer, but I found a service manual on eBay.
In the meantime, this loader needs a bath and some paint.
