sorry..."COASTER"
"MOST EXCELLENT" ...... derived from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure...
sorry... do you have a tv?

[Bert]

I DIDN'T SAY A COAST FOR AN ELEPHANT!!!!!!!!
although I saw your table the other night, I think it is MOST excellent!!!
Why didn't you show it earlier? or did I miss it?
Are you going to sell it?
Plasma Cutter. I got one, a Hypertherm G3 1000

YOU'RE STILL ON DIAL-UP!!!
thats just not right, i'm trailor trash too but you dont see me braggen about that. so dont go buttering me up talking about my high teck dial up.

i put togather a contractors kit off e-bay for about $250 except for the ground clamp/wire. takes a lil looking but you can save a few $'s and end up with a flow meeter insted of a flow gage but if you get the 350 the tigrunner is the way to go no question.
for the dyn200DX the foot controle is the big $ item and SSC has some excelent ones for $160. big saveings and a realy nice foot controle too.
ok so you just want some art work to hold a glass, i can do that, see pic's.
you might want to pick up a plasma cutter to if you want to make my cup holder though.

James,
I'm afraid to buy anything expensive on e-bay, (what happens if something comes broken/missing/damaged, I have to send it back and wait.....) or at least something that is as important to me as this. I am waiting to save up $600 for the air torch/contractors set. I know I'm behind the times not buying on e-bay, but hey...YOU'RE STILL ON DIAL-UP !!!!

considering the post is titled "coffee table 4 computer desk" what were you expecting?? there is a lot of great info on here but there is also a lot of good guys haveing a lil fun from time to time and even some non-welding related projects. if you need info on anything in perticular feel free to ask and most likely you will get more info than you need. we like helping out, but we are not text book, we also like haveing a lil fun. i thought the hitch joke was a hoot.
welcome to the site.

i think if you just want a quick welding related coaster, just grab a 4.5" cut off blade and its ready as is. 1/16" thick and big enough to hold your cup.i'll post some pic's for those of you without the abillity to picture this one in your mind.
talk about a waist of film.LOL

What he said!
I didn`t have thing other to build ,it was just a bunch of scarp ,
P.S. their is some VERY Info feeled theards on here just look around ,you gotta have fun ever once in a while ,feel free to ask ??s

[Bert]

James,
coasters don't have to be the sanding disk pads with epoxy or nothing like that. I'm thinking just metal artwork of some kind that we all can make. Course it would have to have some kind of indentation to hold the water (napkin would hide the artwork). Any ideas guys? or will we forgoe the idea?

hows this i post some regular grinding wheels . still have to find time to go out to grandparents house and get a ride . and am still waitin on dad to tear down comp so im at a stand still.

[fun4now]

i wasent making one just throwing out idea's. but now that theres a chalenge and a prize, well im still most likely not going to make one. sorry no epoxie or the $$ to get it, can i submitt an unfinished one without the clear coat epoxie???

Dyn200 W/O TIG get down to e-bay and get that thing a torch.LOL

[Bert]

HALLLOOOOO!!!!! PICS AREN'T COMING FAST ENOUGH!!!!
watcha teasing us for with starting this thread????!!!!!
this could be a VERY cool contest!!!
Top winners of the coolest custom coasters made!!! I'll put up some kinda prize if you guys are intrested! Since we spend so much time on the computer helping/learning from each other...why not?

[weld_13]

that would make a cool coaster.
you could use a large paper cut too just cut off the top1" set it on foil with the disk in the center, fill with epoxy then cut off the cup after. one clear disk with a disk in it.
the pipe would be easyer though, and add some steel to the project.

i could make one of those coaster holders out of steel plus i could throw the coasters including holder off a cliff and they would still look like new . i coud make a piece of plate with bars coming up and have some of those stick on chair pads on the bottom of it so it wont scratch up the glass on the coffee table or anything. gotta talk to my g-pa cause he builds airplanes and keeps resin and stuff in a good supply. its pretty cool to help and see the stuff hes built even if most of its made of fiderglass. in fact my dads gonna have some scrap steel plate off a big computers case about 1/16 inch thick that hes scrapin that he said i could have woohoo free custom coasters . thanks for all the ideas guys

p.s. hope to see the table pics soon when u gat the chance

[wireburner]

try to have some pics of it in a few days

[weld_13]

take some grinding wheels put them in some pipe a little larger than wheel and the fill pipe with some pour on epoxy (bar coat) will dry clear and you can see the wheel and it last a long time, sounds like it would work

i think ill try it but wont be able to make alot cause epoxy is expensive
