As far as the welding cart, I said there were some safety issues with it. The original poster asked why I said that. I gave a couple of examples of what he could change, without going into much detail( to avoid hurting his feelings), and in the same post said the cart was a good idea. No one else had even responded yet. Then the posts started coming slamming me for knocking the cart. I looked on the net and found evidence from an excellent source to back up what I was saying regarding the cylinders. A few other posters also mentioned some safety concerns but the bulk of the posts were directed at me for critizing the cart. I think that without all the posts directed at me, the original poster wouldn't have also taken such exception to my concerns. The posts directed at me got so bad, the entire thread was removed. Nobody even paid attention to a real safety issue. Other posters turned it into a campaign against me. I gave an honest opinion and backed it up. It wasn't to hurt the builders feelings. It was to keep him from getting injured or having his cylinders become scrap. Ever heard the term, "better to be safe than sorry"? Hurt feelings is better than physical hurt any day of the week. If people don't want to heed safety warnings, then by all means have your cylinders where electric current could cause them to explode, your fingers could get off by not having a guards on your grinders, your 220 power cord could easily get damaged, objects could fly into your cylinders, etc., etc.
If I had to drive to peoples homes to give individual instruction, I'd have to charge at least $50/hr and probably a lot more. If the shop wasn't safe or their machine didn't work properly, I'd still have to get paid for my time. Do think people would refer others if I charged them and couldn't help them? I could have some low end machines for training and also some better machines so people could see the difference. Their existing machine(s) could be the cause of 90% of their problems and frustration.

Today's Featured Article - Search For Spares - by Anthony West (UK). Following on from the aquisition of the old Fordson F, I was very much in need of spares. As a novice though I didn't appreciate the fact that there were so many Fordson tractors made, that all the other makes seem rare by comparison. As far as I was aware a fordson was a fordson and it was only through trial an
