    Looking for crane, trolley, I-beam, rigging help/advice

    yep I ain't dead yet. The ends are nothing more than Horrible freight trolley wheels and some angle iron. A little machining for the axle shafts. I made the angle iron just long enough to control the beam from binding up when pulling from one end.

    Backyard mechanic taps

    So you totally shot down a friend who came to you with what he thought was a good idea. Maybe a little explanation instead of being "insulted" would have helped him a little more. Don't be surprised if he doesn't come back to you for advice or help in the future. Way to treat a "friend"

    Welder for a newbie?

    Turn off the gas and now you have a gasless mig. I run both wire through mine. Once you learn a little you will be glad you bought a gas type mig. You can't go the other way.

    Head gasket leak that doesn't cause the coolant system to overflow in Powerstroke

    You might look into the injector cups as this is a common place to loose coolant. I replaced mine at 285 k miles when I did the injectors. Two of them were showing signs of leaking.
