I believe the prep wash is a liquid, will it soak into the wood and cause the moisture problems?

Neil.
He is using two pack. I don't think he bakes it as such, just sprays in the booth and leaves it to dry. Not sure if he wipes it with somthing before he sprays it, that might be the key, I will...

As a side note. How well do the circular blades work in the drop saw. I found a old Makita at the dump, when I pluged it in it didn't go, pushed the red overload butten and away it went.

kim

Hi guys.

kim

Hi Guys. Me again.
oxy propane uses more oxy. (4x i think) that's why it is so good for cutting (oxidising) (rusting) so the propane is cheaper but the oxy is dearer
kim

Hi Guys.
steel melts at under 1600dec C.
I can't see why you can't melt steel with a flame at 2900 C Why do you need 3100C?
Kim

Hi.Guys.
i believe the reason you can't weld with O2 and propane is you have more O2 in the mix and you get an oxidising flame.
kim

Thanks guys.
Job done.
Its easy when somone helps.
