Kentucky Armory Club

I tend to spend quite a bit of my time on construction sites and proper ppe is required. I have gotten tired of the plain old white hard hat and since I am a baller.....

If you are up here until the Saturday, http://www.russellmilitarymuseum.com looks like a lot of fun.

Hope you brought a ezpass transponder. The $15 river link transponder works on Chicago roads and is half price of cash.

Oh wait, we are not talking about good burger joints?

LaRue makes a good trigger.

Maybe they are breaching a football stadium and will have long shots.

Practice. You can make some extremely clean cuts with a torch if you work at it.
I used to work at a semi shop and a guy there had a motorized torch on a track and he cut 2" steel plate and it was clean.

If you are learning, get plenty of grinder wheels.

I picked up a hypertherm 800 12 years ago that was a rental unit that prax air in Madison was retiring for $300. For what I do, it's great.

meh, you can use that analogy on a lot of things.... People who own homes and have no kids pay school tax and never get to use it 90% of the people in a county pay a library tax and probably never use the library That first one fits me perfectly. I pay so all the kids across the street can go to sc...

You might want to monitor humidity in there and consider a dehumidifier. I've read of guns rusting in rooms set up like that. We have a vault very similar to that at the shop ... and it definitely does get humid in there ... in fact, we used to have had guns just sitting in there for a short time t...

It was 45% humidity this morning. I still have to connect the drain line for the dehumidifier.

If it's dry in there, my bet would be on it working just fine

I hope it doesn't rain on it. If it did, it did its job as a tornado shelter and I'm not too worried about rust.

Happy New Years

Clear will stick to steel but I've never been able to completely keep it from rusting. It's streaky when it rusts underneath and looks like crap. That's just my experience. I've seen it done well, but it's sure not as easy as it looks Will it still rust with it inside and dry? I could understand if...

Wow! I'm impressed with the build!! Have no idea what color to paint it. I'd likely do a light grey or tan. Neutral. What are you going to do on the floor? Maybe those soft cushioned floor tiles? Pretty cheap for a nice floor. Or you could roll some cheap carpet but keep it short so you don't lose ...

I am liking the floor a desert tan/kaki/FDE epoxy.

Several people on FB think I should clear coat the ceiling. I like the idea, but I don't know if it will stick to bare steel.

Sometimes a drink just calls your name.

There is a release handle under the black cover.

White....everything, including the floor....you'll never lose anything that way.lol

And never lose a single footprint or dirty fingerprint.

I am finally done with the dirty parts of construction of my "storm shelter." Now I need to paint. What colors? The door is black cherry metallic. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161230/0b683725a43c679c54cddef43f08ce7f.jpg http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161230/39c3a567954ec6d581afb99ef1ba3785.j...

Am I the only one who looked at what cans had a ton of variety in mount threads before purchasing?
