QUOTE(sgpdsmss @ Sep 14 2021, 10:07 AM) Actually that is not for Covid. It has been around for those working with power tools. I use goggle that looks like for divers with holes for slight air flow. Goggle like spec will still let too much dust to irritate your eyes.However, the one that I used still fog inside because probably I sweat a lot. Maybe something like welder here is better. I need to get one myself. Also need that safety clove to prevent cut, I had my hand grazed by metal cutting disk while using grinder |

QUOTE(ceo684 @ Sep 15 2021, 04:03 PM) Check input amps..you probably need to run a high amp line from DB box, even a 120A output MIG can suck 18A or 23A input current. I saw one MIG 250A spec called for 30A input current.Something like 10mm² or 16mm² cables and 32A or 63A high current plugs will be required I think. They wont be able to operate on 13A socket. |

QUOTE(stormer.lyn @ Sep 15 2021, 06:57 PM) I run my MIG welder plugged into a normal 13A socket When you said:Anyway, I weld maybe max 3 mm thickness maximum. The amps used at this level is relatively low. Power is the important consideration. If the 13A socket provides 3000 Watts (230V x 13A) then the welding set can also weld at 3000W, but the welding set is low voltage at about 20V only. So 3000W / 20V = 150A. Assuming the welding set is 80% efficient, 150A x 0.8 = 120A welding current. That is why you can run a welding set from a 13A socket, if the welding current that you need is low. This will not be possible if you are welding thick material, at maximum Amps. But welding thin material with a current of 80A.... sure, go ahead. MIG welding in M'sia uses straight CO2, not a mixed gas. I have 2 tanks, one from the hardware shop made of steel, and my own alloy one (lighter) for when I need to travel someplace to weld. The hardware shop tank is replaced like your cooking gas tank; you give the empty tank to the shop, and you pay and collect a new full one. This available gas, and the fact that you can't easily find stainless steel welding wire, is the reason I say you can't reasonably weld s/steel with a MIG process in M'sia. So, since you asked about MIG, that is the info I have for you. You are correct about TIG welding, in that it is a "nicer" process. The same power rules apply to your welding current, and using a 13A socket at home. There is no special requirement with keeping Argon tanks, just that they must be secured, like all tanks should be. Other than that, no special precautions needs to be taken. CAUTION! Argon is heavier than air, and does not support life! I find the TIG process more elegant, and would like to own a set one day. Unfortunately, I want to build an aluminium boat, so the RM 6k entry price is a barrier for me, for what is basically a hobby! TIG has it's own issues. Among them would be cost of materials, cost of consumables, learning curve, slow process, needing accurate parts (TIG doesn't like gaps between pieces) and material cleaning and preparation. But, it looks really good, and is the only real process for doing s/s and Al. Maybe one day... Assuming the welding set is 80% efficient, 150A x 0.8 = 120A welding current. I believe that you suppose to add 20% more from the 150A, not reducing it This post has been edited by Zot: Sep 17 2021, 08:09 AM |

QUOTE(sgpdsmss @ Sep 19 2021, 09:31 AM) Canola because the article is from west. Actually any vegetable oil will do. It needs low viscosity oil. The problem in the West would be, the vegetable oil froze in cold weather but we don;t have the problem here. Use govt subsidize RM2.50 or minyak cap buruh. Can upgrade to minyak cap pisau Well, thicker oil provide better protection but you lose some efficiency. Thinner oil, more wear but perform better. Same basic rule for car engine oil ceo684 liked this post

QUOTE(PalakOtakHang @ Sep 27 2021, 03:50 PM) I want to buy rotary hammer drill to drill holes in wall, Using for home diy purpose only. I don't think Mr DIY provide repair service because product is also China made.I see MR.DIY selling for ~200. (warranty 15 days); some oem china brand selling <200 (1years). Which 1 is better? If I want to buy China, I'd would ask if there is local service support unless you just don't bother; like if lucky can last long and if unlucky just buy new one type. I wonder if the model that use same Bosch name and look compatible with Bosch spare part https://shopee.com.my/FOX-GBH-2-26-26mm-980...876&position=59 |

QUOTE(ceo684 @ Oct 4 2021, 02:58 AM) X lock Will save time compared to normal 100mm basic one..if you run a foundry or metalworks place. Else not much diff if not used heavily..changing cutting disc only takes 30 seconds with the basic bosch. Most small SME firm get by with the basic bosch GWS 060.. it is quite a workhorse, and most of the time cutting at max speed safer (less jamming risk) than running too slowly. The variable speed may be good if u do more grinding than cutting? Big disc can use to cut big size steel in one go. No need to replace disc often The X lock use 125mm disc..still cute Anyway, this X-Lock will not slip if get stuck like the regular one? |

QUOTE(lyt25_1234 @ Oct 4 2021, 12:20 PM) Thanks for the feedback. I think I will go for x-lock option as I am one lazy dude If you don't mind not to have 3rd party disc al alternative for a while, then no problem. I think currently maybe no other alternative available except to buy only Bosch And I don't have to worry about having a jam disc on it. So far I heard they have stress test this x-lock mechanism which will not have issue with slippage. |

QUOTE(lyt25_1234 @ Oct 5 2021, 08:06 AM) I need the variable speed so that I can use it to also scrub my bathroom floor tiles that has lots of stubborn ugly water stains. Contractors use diluted hydrochloride acid to certain percentage. Sold in hardware shop as tiles cleaner.They just pour to the tiles. Let it soak for about 15 min and then brush it with wire bushed. If you have water deposit sort of like calcium there on surface, it will softened it and more easily to come off. Yes that copper wire brush used to clean rust on iron fence or grill before repainting. The acid is not expensive like RM10+ for a container like a gallon if not mistaken.

QUOTE(lyt25_1234 @ Oct 5 2021, 08:23 AM) I tried that method in my previous house toilet, i f*cked it up, that acid thing eat thru the cement grouts and cause severe water leaks. Sold the house? And also using the wire brushed also killed my toilet tiles as it's too harsh for the tiles until it create lots of deep scratches that is no way to remove them. So end up I sold that house. What kind of tile is that. Toilet floor tile is not that fragile and the grout is not actually 100% for water proofing. The whole floor itself should be water proof concrete slab. I used the acid several time but nothing damaged. I used the fine copper wire though. Note that some cheap China tile used by contractor can actually collect stain from tile bottom. Seep through tiles. It may looks like the stain is on surface that can never be removed. ceo684 liked this post

QUOTE(chamelion @ Oct 5 2021, 08:25 AM) Use stronger cleaner will do. Those from PYE etc. it is cleaner than scrubbing with home cleaner + grinder. Those stainless steel metal will become dark burn like but it can be easily buff to shine again in case accidentally spilled on it.Acid need careful especially if you hv plastic drain outlet, cannot leave too long. Acid vapor will stain you plastic and chrome tap too so you need wrap all before pouring acid. Cordless drill with brush or wire mesh is safer too. lyt25_1234 liked this post
