    You WILL pay 150 dollars for it.....and like it mister!!!!!!!

    Welding thick metal

    Use what ever method you are better at mig or stick. When I welded for a living (only for a short time) I would do a root pass with 6010 then fill with 7018

    While you could mount the auger to the backhoe the BX23's hydraulic flow rate is very low, something like 3.7 GPM. It may not have the flow to drive the auger properly.

    The drying time of Loctite 577 is KILLING ME!!!!!!!!

    If this is for shop air you could of used Pex-AL-Pex, it handles higher pressures than standard pex and much easier than threading black pipe.

    KH31 excavator not spinning fully.

    Could be an issue with the swing brake. When the controls are in neutral the brake is on preventing the house from rotating when you input a rotation command with the control the swing brake releases.

    A HST oil change gone wrong, what would you do?

    No such thing as a 100% oil change in a hydraulic system. The only issue exists in your head.

    Bummer - I think my AC Compressor is Failing!? (M7060)

    What are the pressures when the it stops blowing cold? If you can access the tube to the inlet of the evaporator and connect a remote temp probe onto the tube wrapped in insulation with the meter in the cab. The video seems to show the clutch slipping but it can also be a video frame rate issue.
