Aloha Gang, Another tool I picked up when I was going to do some wood stabilizing and some bowyer work... too many other things so this is just sitting... Hopefully someone here can use this great tool... I have listed a Wagner MMC220 Extended Range Pinless Wood Moisture Meter that I picked up and never used... Protective plastic is still on the face... This also comes with the black Pelican Case that I picked up to store the unit... Please see the pics... I also powered it up to show the display at zero and on a piece of Yew I had in the shop.... You can google this and find the specs and prices.... Here's some I found...

Aloha Gang, Found a few more items in the shop that are just sitting ...

You can google it and find the specs... here's some from Starrett's site... Micrometer Type: Outside Range (in): 0-1" Graduations (in): .0001" Anvil/Spindle Material: Carbide Anvil Type: Flat Spindle Type: Flat Lock Nut Type: Knurled Ring Type Thimble Type: Ratchet Accuracy (in): +/-.00005" $GONE Shipped Priority Mail Insured with Tracking to the USA Only....

Aloha Gang, I have listed an ATI Professional Welding Course I purchased from AGI that includes 10 DVDs If you google "AGI ATI Professional Welding Course" you find some videos with sample clips you can watch... older gentleman in a blue shirt.... I believe knowing how to weld is a pretty handy and in some cases important thing to know how to do... fabricating or repairing tools, jigs etc.... This course will get you up to speed pretty darn quickly.... and covers the all important safety aspects as well.... This is an excellent course and while I did not send in the certification test (only a hobby guy)... it taught me quickly to gas, stick and mig weld for all my projects... (no tig machine or I would be doing that ) The instructor is a professional in the industry... not just a teacher.... is great and easy to watch and follow... This over 21 hour course covers in detail... History and Safety - 3 hours 22 mins Gas Welding - 3 hours 56 mins Cutting - 2 hours 25 mins Mig Fluxcore - 2 hours 27 mins Stick Welding - Welding Joints - 3 hours 13 mins Tig Welding - 1 hour 24 mins Tig Welding Small Parts - 1 hour 4 mins Welding Symbols - The Welding Shop - 1 hour 9 mins Welding Projects I - 1 hour 45 mins Welding Projects II - 1 hour 30 mins I paid $997 which was a discounted price a few years ago... plus shipping so a bit over $1000.00 Picture is included of the invoice.... This complete 10 dvd course is no longer available which is too bad... there are online courses but if you are like me... you like to own the actual physical dvds and not have to rely on getting online with all the glitches and problems with the web and websites at times... Save yourself a bunch of money and teach yourself all the disciplines in welding with your own library that you can go back to over and over again to refine your skills... Please note that I have viewed all these DVDs more than once to make sure they are all in good order and have carefully stored them in their protective sleeves in the binder after each viewing... $GONE shipped Priority Insured with Tracking to the USA only... Thanks for looking.... Have a safe and great Thanksgiving all! Take Care and God Bless, Craig
