[old-chevy-truck] Off topic, but I don't know where else to ask
I am interested in joining an existing group dedicated to taking the Chinese stuff that is on the market and making it into something actually useful and lasting. I have had to do this with Harbor Freight tools on a regular basis and I am interested in comparing notes with those who have done likewise. My apologies to those who think I should only discuss Chevy trucks here, but you must have tools to fix up the Chevies and as a friend of mine who worked in a machine shop said, "if you don't have good tools, you're not gonna do good work." Can anyone point me in the right direction? [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!

You could try a group called cheapfcaw. They are about cheap welders such as HF sells, but they might get into other imported ju, er, stuff!Jim in Aniwa1-48 Chevy 36002-49 Chevy 3600 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!

I have used quite a few Harbor Freight Tools to work on my truck, so I guess is not so off topic.

Re: [old-chevy-truck] Off topic, but I don't know where else to ask
I had an engine hoist that the side straps did not match the holes. Ended up welding them. I know the 12 ton press needs welded or it just isn't solid enough for some jobs. I have the remmants of another hoist being used to support a '49 Chevy cab in my garage. The rollers at least work. What got me started, tho was when I had to do a thing to my Bondo file before I could get it right with the world as my bondo hardened on my '48 2 ton fender. There! worked it to on topic! If there is not such a group, perhaps we should start one. As far as statuary goes, well...(oh boy, I'm gonna work this on topic again;-)...I have some valves left over from a valve job. Exhaust valves and I did an unleaded conversionthese would make great eyes! How about a mailbox holder statue fountain that has the top part of US parts into a robot of another robot on the bottom of Chinese parts. The fountain comes in...well... --- On Sun, 10/10/10, william clark wrote: From: william clark Subject: Re: [old-chevy-truck] Off topic, but I don't know where else to ask To: old-chevy-truck@yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday, October 10, 2010, 7:42 AM Bill in Corvallis, Good idea, Bill.
