    mig or arc welder? need help

    steel suggestions for a safari rack

    I am looking to fab a safari rack and would like some suggestions on Metal to use. I have some 1" square tube, 1/8" wall. But I'm concerned it will weight A LOT. My other thought is EMT or rigid EMT. That seems a little light but if I reinforce it enough I think it'll be ok. The rack doesn't...

    Movie speakers

    Radio shack used to sell an A/B switch for car audio speakers.. i did a quick search and didnt see them though.. But you could just have them switched so you could select one set or the other. That is if you dont have extra outputs for more speakers. I am not a big audiophile so i am sure...

    Oval hole in center console (Pictures)

    They are kinda hard to find by me too. I think the box size is called "juniors" . Kleenex (i think) has a similar size pack now but it isnt in a box. its more like in a pack like baby wipe are.. They fit ok. Thats what ive been using because thats what I can find around here.

    Running voltage question...

    I noticed today that my battery (voltage) gauge looked a little bit low. It wasnt right smack dab in the middle. it was probably only 1/3 of the way up from the bottom. I dont recall seeing it be that low prior. My truck off voltage was 12.0V and with it running i on had 12.6V. Shouldnt it be...
