Those old tap transformers will take a lot of abuse, but when they blow, its a spectacular event you need to view from afar!

I recently inherited a barn full of tools and hardware. I will NEVER go to the hardware store again. In the lot of stuff was this old "shock box". I also got 300lbs of various rod. It works wonderfully! I'm going to shorten the power cord as I've read it is better for the operation of the machine. I can't figure out if it's homemade or not. What do you guys think?View attachment 91368View attachment 91369View attachment 91370

Congratulations on the score. Is some type of welder? If it is 300 lbs of welding rod you are talking about hopefully it is well stored otherwise it will soon be useless. What other goodies did you come by?

Thanks btw Fred. And yes it was well stored in various moisture resistant cases. Some military lol

Yes i did move the stairs and reorganize. Then I brought 2 dump truck loads of stuff and disorganized it again!! In exchange for working on my neighbors buggy and storing it, he has been nice enough to keep my fridge full of beer and help me organize! I call him my beer fairy!

Are you gonna be at autofest this year?

When is it? I will ask my father in law if he feels up to heading over. If not maybe my youngest will want to go.
