SS MIG revisited

Exactly!!! Which is why I spent $130 on a bead buster and some tire spoons - - - I already own a compressor - - -

Nah-na-na-na-na-nah , my wife bought me a HF tire changer for Christmas - with motorcycle attachment , don't need spoons . One year she got me an ATV/motorcycle lift . She's a keeper ! I gotta say , she has indulged my toolwhoredom over the years . She has also realized the (tens of ?) thousands of dollars those tools have saved us over the years .

I have some of the HF manual tire changers, perhaps not the one you have. They change the job from nearly impossible to very difficult and I still need the long spoons, and large C clamps. The tire shops won't touch older tires and some of my tractor tires are over 40.

A 2" RA air sander and X-tra Seal fixed my leaky rim problems.

My problem is I don't have the spsce for all the full sized tools, not living on an "acreage out in the sticks" so I have to make do!! My g

I drill mounts for such bulky, rarely needed tools on a 3' square shop-made welding table with removable legs. When not in use they go back in the box. The table top has wheels on one side to roll it in and out of storage.
