Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Hell, I'm embarrassed by everyone.


Compression fittings should not be used on brake lines, except to limp home if you had a line failure.

Wow, I resemble that first remark and I thought compression fittings with a single flare is what you want?

serious question...why? I'll be honest, I've head this from a few different places, but no one seems to have any specific, first hand experiences with having a compression fitting fail. I've got 2 or 3 of them on my rig, and they've been there for about 2 and 1/2 years without a single problem from any of 'em. It just seems to me that all the compression-fittings-are-bad talk is just hearsay. I'm open to see what others have to say though :viking:

Actually its illegal in MA to use them on brake lines and they also require a double or bubble flare but before I knew any better I used comp. unions with single flare especially to get off the trail or road.

I didn't know it was illegal :eyes: or...erm... well.. but either way: cop didn't see it, I didn't do it.

It would only matter in the case of an accident.

where the hell do you store 300 feet of tube

At someone elses house. That only about 15 sticks Billy I'm sure your parents wouldn't notice.

I have one of those HF benders and it's still in the box from like 2 yrs ago. I thinking of using some left over cast iron pipe from when I worked on the furnace. haha.

I've heard if you use straight CO2 instead of argon you'll burn alittle hotter as far as mig.

I just had a 2 hour interview with 4 people for a co-op job position, with them asking me all this really weird questions. It was fun.

Yup. I was using CO2 when doing my floors since that's what came with the welder I bought. That is what I would use IF I decided to use my welder for a cage. I am very tempted to try building a bumper first and see how that goes.. I have some 3/16ths or 1/4" flat stock I may cut a couple pieces out of to see how deep the weld goes on that. If I can go slow and get good penetration I will consider using my mig for heavier stuff.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I might have an old spare in the pile 'o parts in the yard (cant remember if its a driver or passenger side) and I'm also not sure if it's a 260x or 297x (either way it'd probably need replacing) but if it's useable to you, it's free...
