    Fried a terminal strip in my E-Herms control box

    Vintage 1940s Fridgidaire Kegerator Build

    I'm jealous. I was looking for one also, and had the same problem as you - they were all either completely thrashed or the sell thought it was mad of gold. I finally gave up and just used a $15 craigslist special.

    crafting copper kettle (hammered) asking for general advice from metal workers

    I wrote out a LONG in-depth answer to this... and then the power went out as I was proof reading it... So the reader's digest version is this: Like the others said you need to anneal. Heat it to dull red, then cool, either air or water doesn't matter. You need to stretch a ring around the...

    Short bottle conditioning

    That beer was probably carbonated before it went into the bottle. That is why you can drink it a few days after it was bottled and it is perfectly carbonated.

    Ugh.. any way to save a sugared weld?

    So, I made myself up a little back gas setup, got my bung fit up really nice, laid a mediocre weld (not too bad considering it had been a few months since I had even fired up my old dinosaur TIG machine). Then I look at the back side, and realize I forgot to turn the back gas on...:mad: So...

    Spa panel vs. Standard

    It's usually cheaper to buy the panel with the 50a breaker, than it is to buy just the GFCI breaker to fit your existing panel. The 50a spa panel w/breaker sells for around $50 at Home Depot.

    DC-Powered Panel

    I was considering doing a 12v control system on the eBIAB I am starting, mostly because I am more familiar/comfortable w/ 12v DC systems. But, after looking around I decided the gains just weren't worth the extra steps required to make it happen. All of my switching circuits will be fused 120v...
