I got some new verniers a set of carbide burrs a set of big drill bits for piller drill and ordered some bits for the milling machine I got off eBay the week before.

I love having good tools it makes life a lot better with the kit for the job.

What's next on your shopping list?

Nice shopping spree
Well, it will be a while before I buy anything major, but hopefully I will get a steel cutting bandsaw in the future, I'd say they are a fierce handy tool. After that, maybe an old vertical milling machine, could use it for drilling too:001_smile:

Got the exhaust back in this morning, got half soaked too. At least the wind hadn't picked up at this stage

It is basically a Hitachi, though not as well built/finished as the EX455 they have there too.

I sure do, a filter and water trap, as well as an air line that will only be used by the plasma cutter or when paint spraying, so there is no oil in the air line

Are the filter and water trap permanent fixtures or in-line fittings that you couple in when using the cutter?

There is the option of a Hypertherm Filter and water trap mounted onto the back of the machine itself, see here in the link:

The one I have is one with pcl quick release fittings that I connect up to the air compressor when using the plasma or paint spraying. I have a separate hose for the plasma and paint spraying so no lube oil gets in the air line

There is a filter water trap on the back of mine, then I have a filter regulator shortly after the compressor, does the job.

This is the moisture trap/regulator that came on the Plasma Part cutter I bought. Do you recon it's adequate, on its own, to deal with moisture? I should probably get some sort of filter as well.

Does it collect much water?

Take the output from it and see how wet/dirty it is, that will give you an idea.
