Starting to get more done to the shop again.
Starting to get more done to the shop again. Ran a couple 220v circuits for each of the welders plus a 110v circuit for some much needed outlets. Changed my plans a bit and swapped the welders to the east wall so the runs are shorter.

Got this old Sears/Devilbiss air compressor restored.
Got this old Sears/Devilbiss air compressor restored. Replaced all the gaskets and piston rings. New controller and regulator valve. Fresh coat of paint. Super quiet compared to my other compressor. And this one can hold 7.4cfm@125psi.

Almost there. A little more troweling and it will be time to sit back and watch it cure. Hopefully the heater will do what it needs to and keep the shop above freezing for the next couple of nights. .
