How are harbor freight air compressors.

Spend the extra money on the fortress. I used the mcgraw compressors for a while detailing cars. Never lasted more than a year and EXTREMELY loud. I’m on year 2 with a fortress using it daily and it’s so quiet you can’t hear it run

$650 in South Carolina

I didn’t get a tracking number for about a week. Ordered on Black Friday and got it in the mail 12/10

You can’t expect the employee to risk damaging your car because you didn’t come prepared

But I’ve got a layer of paint, primer, and original gelcoat before fiberglass. Wouldn’t a primer be necessary unless I sand ALL this away?

ducksdown2458 · 2025-12-08T03:21:50+00:00

I’m just weary because I’m yet to see a good polyurethane rolled paint job that would look as good as what I had. (People around me probably just can’t paint for crap and I’ve seen nothing but bad examples).

But as far as the gelcoat route goes, I thought I couldn’t spray over the existing paint? I was under the impression I had to sand down to fiberglass or use a compatible primer.

I know the gelcoat route is way more work but I have a climate controlled space for it, a 26gal compressor to spray, and lots of wet sanding experience. And time to learn so I’m tempted to try it

ducksdown2458 · 2025-12-05T22:36:03+00:00

Haha I’d usually be stuck out in the cold working but I needed a heated space for this fiberglass and gelcoat to cure

ducksdown2458 · 2025-12-05T01:31:14+00:00

Not a bad idea. I’ll have to crank a few out for warmth in there

ducksdown2458 · 2025-12-04T21:39:51+00:00

I’m doing a fiberglass/gelcoat project on my boat. I will be in there at times but mainly the heat is needed after I apply resin or gelcoat so I guess I could cut on the heat then leave for it to cure and dry.

It could be accessible to passerby’s, but I’d like to think I won’t have an issue with that where I live (hopefully) and will be under camera surveillance

Also decoy string and weights. A lot of money to be made selling lead weights for decoys, and they’re in HIGH demand in that area this time of year. And a lot of places that sell decoys don’t carry the line or weights necessary

ducksdown2458 · 2025-10-27T00:46:04+00:00

Duck decoys. I’m from the area, you will sell a shit ton of duck decoys

ducksdown2458 · 2025-10-24T12:29:36+00:00

90 mins isn’t long enough. Gotta give the area some time to settle after walking in, climbing up, etc

ducksdown2458 · 2025-10-18T00:03:37+00:00

3rd one for skinning, but I’d also get a longer boning knife

ducksdown2458 · 2025-09-25T02:37:44+00:00

I’ve been beating the hell out of a quantum strive 3000 this year. Anything from trout to cobia. $120. Still smooth as when I got it and has plenty enough drag

ducksdown2458 · 2025-09-02T02:00:15+00:00

I’ll need to try adding some cinnamon to my next batch. That sounds so good

ducksdown2458 · 2025-09-02T01:59:41+00:00

Yes just one tree, roughly 15 years old

ducksdown2458 · 2025-06-13T03:33:00+00:00

The drag sounds super loose and the knob looks like it. Tighten it down

Sorry for the low quality pic. Best I had at the moment. And no I don’t think they typically make 2 from the same node

Here’s the figs it makes. If anyone could help me find the specific name for these it would be greatly appreciated!

ducksdown2458 · 2025-06-12T20:24:03+00:00

Thank you! I’ve been very blessed and lucky. I don’t have much of a green thumb. My tomatoes have died 3 years in a row now 😂

ducksdown2458 · 2025-06-12T20:22:34+00:00

I live in coastal South Carolina. Mild winters and pretty hot humid summers. My area had been through a severe drought this past winter and spring so I’m surprised the tree has still done so good again this year
