Unboxing Eastwood Bead Roller with Dies
Ah! No wonder why!!!! 2 weeks with it and I tried adding 2 tabs every couple days! Thank you
Happy to help!
Everyone should share this PSA on the car forums. I bought them from Amazon thinking I got some nice terminals for a fair price. They corroded so freakin' fast, and I think the added resistance of the corrosion combined with the sub-par conductivity [of aluminum] is what killed the regulator in my '93 Festiva's original alternator. Sure, it could have been on the way out, but it made it 30 years right up until I installed these terminals 😖
That’s crazy they corroded that quickly, and you are not the first person to suggest these killed your regulator.
Makes no sense to have multiple speeds when there's a variable trigger
Good call, those terminals are pure garbage.
Continual never ending education that is passed on to people is what makes mire informed content. Thank you for admitting learning is key ans sharing is blessing
Thanks @tossedsalad5532 I appreciate the comment
I use that thing heavily and hate it but it's better than running an airline
What do you hate about it?
@@icandothat905 it has no balls, I do a lot of sheet metal repair work with aluminum... I use a wax based lubricant if im not welding where im cutting but even then the thing just stops all the damn time... if it had a little more power I think it would be great.
This hasn’t bothered me too much if I have heavy cuts I’ll just run the air hose or grab the angle grinder. I do notice it stopping a lot and you can see that when I cut the bolt. I can see where this would get annoying if you were constantly stopping.
My brother in Christ, i picked up that right angle milwaukee die grinder from cornwell about three weeks ago. I'm a professional mechanic. I then ordered the straight milwaukee die grinder from amazon for about $140. I use the straight one SO many times. I also got 1/4 carbide burr bits from amazon for $30 and they work great with these grinders. Some examples from me in only the last two weeks are using the carbide bits to widen my pilot holes to accept my "hyperstep drill bits" to drill through/destroy exhaust bolts. Another example was using carbide bits to repair a broken honda camshaft sprocket tool that broke to get the timing job done. Today, i used the carbide bits and the straight die grinder to help deburr a Nissan frontier spindle caliper bolt holes because someone damaged it prior... So far, i've used the straight one MANY times. The right angle i used once to help clean a honda 3.5 waterpump surface but honestly, a razor blade works better i think. anyways, im subscribed brother! Just wanted to share my recent experience with these milwaukee die grinders. So far, the straight die grinder is the one thats been used ALOT in my situations. Thank you!
I was curious about the straight one, now I have to get it. I got some carbide bits on amazon as well, they do ok, would love to know the ones you got. Overall I love this thing. I use it constantly. Thanks for the sub and the info!
@@icandothat905 Mars-Rock 1/4 carbide burrs. By the way, my advice when using carbide burrs is to run them very fast! Try the max speed setting. They will do the work quickly but dont let them get too hot. On that exhaust bolt i ran it for about four seconds and it was smoking but it did the work and actually threw out the bolts revealing the threads of the manifold which i repaired with a thread chaser... awesome tools! Better than dropping$200-$350 on the tool truck for carbide burrs. we'll see about longevity in due time. Today i used the right angle grinder with a roloc to help clean rust off a hub and had a wire wheel on the straight one to help clean the hubs during a brake job. I throw a wheel hub/lug stud cleaner adapter on my milwaukee drill too. Can do a professional brake job very fast! Good tools to have.
Thanks for the video,
You are welcome!
Ordered but was never delivered they returned money
That sucks, sorry to hear that it didn’t come through.
I've probably watched a dozen videos on this drill press. You're the 1st one with enough sense to raise the table out of the way before running in the bolts from the column to the base.
I’m sure I’ll do something stupid later to make up for it 😅
What are the inside dimensions?
30x20”
I own the same model. Worked great out of box. The stock chain dulls out really quickly. Also the rubber used for the fuel line does not hold up and will end up leaking. Therefore the leaking fuel won't allow the unit to run. So, with this in mind, and having to address these issues, my saw now works again. I replaced the blade and bar with an Oregon equivalent btw.
I've had mine for 3 years and so far (knock on wood 😅) no problems. I've added a 24 inch bar and it still screams in the cut.❤
I've had mine 25+ years. Zero problems except recently, the pressure regulator adjustment has a slow leak.the exact model. Keeps up with virtually all air tools.
I don't get what you mean when you say "heavy"
Heavy is a term to describe a 16th of an inch. So if I’m cutting trim and I need a really tight fit, if my measurement is a little above 3/8” then you’d say 3/8” heavy. Most imperial tape measures have 16th marks but it’s impractical to say 7/16ths. You can also just go metric and never need to utter this phrase at all.
Forgot to add in the videos these came directly from the company, not a third party.
You have to make many holes for aeration !
While this may be true, I want to note that this is not what is in the instructions for this setup. I’m going to post a follow where I spend more time explaining the instructions I had and everything that went wrong.
Put some compost worms in it
That’s a good idea. The hole actually collapsed over the winter. I’m posting an update with all the info soon.
Perhaps a pvc pipe to hold to hole open or some gravel
Can’t really expect much. $500 is change compared to what a blast cabinet for a shop runs. These units are hobbyist units. I’d take that unit the way it is more than the one I was shipped by another company with all bent panels form shipping. Sent it back and ordered the Eastwood. If it does indeed ship built, I have no complaints with packaging.
So Packaging and Shipping issues aside I have to say that it still looks like a better cabinet than the the harbor freight option. I have to say that I really like the top mount lid verses the side opening that the HF unit has. I didn't realize that there was that much difference between the eastwood option and the HF option. That being said I recently went with the a Barrel Blaster cabinet made out of a 55gal barrel. They packed it very well compared to how eastwood does it but I have also needed to Upgrade a lot of things right off the bat. like the trigger on the gun it came with is very difficult to operate with the gloves so I had to order a triggerless gun with a foot pedal. Then it came with a flood light mounted on the right hand side. It works ok for small items but if you put something in there that takes up 30-40% of the space then you start having issues with it throwing shadows so I had to order a new lighting system to install in there. And finally the viewing window is plexiglass with a plastic stick on / tear-off protector. It started getting scratched up with in minutes of use, so I had to go buy a piece of glass from the hardware store. It wasn't a cheap cabinet but man I feel like I have needed to make a lot of mods after the fact to bring it up to a certain level of quality. I hope once you have had it for a while and get over the shock of the initial assembly that you enjoy it.
Thanks for the comment; I've been working on a review of this for some follow up context and a big issue I have is I don't actually know how it compares to the HR in terms of quality (since I don't have one), so speaking to what you get for your money is hard. Good to know it's better than what HR offers. I have similar complaints to everything you said. It feels like for this to be a "really good" cabinet I need all the same changes. Which, at a similar price point to the barrel blaster, you really shouldn't have to do in my opinion. Overall I'm really happy with this model, but looking at the barrel blaster the media pan is much deeper, I have issues with needing to bang on the side of the b40 model. I have seen reviews of the b60 where this isn't such a problem. What kind of air compressor are you running on the barrel blaster?
@@icandothat905 I have a Craftsman 1.9 running HP Oiled compressor making 7.2 SCFM @ 40 psi and 5.8 SCFM @ 90 psi. (IT IS NOT ENOUGH!!!) I'm so afraid that I'm going to Burn out the Pump at any Minute. I just watched a video who said that the 7 CFM gun that they give with these units is actually on 7 CFM @ 12psi. when you run it at the recommended 70 psi its actually 21-22 CFM. In case your interested the video title is "It's Not 7 CFM". I may purchase one of their 12 CFM guns down the line as they are a bit pricey but seems to be the lowest cfm option available. I saw another video where a guy mounted a computer fan perpendicular to the back side of the media pan/collector and cut off one of the blades so that it would vibrate the media down to the bottom. This mod may help you in your situation. I don't remember the name of that video though. Another thing that you might want to look at is getting a Filter/water separator. I got one from harbor Freight that is a regulator and filter that I mounted to the side of my cabinet. It keeps the moisture out of the media and also lets me regulate the PSI going into the cabinet. I've been messing around with lowering the psi down to 60 and 50psi to see if it will help give my compressor a break.
I’ve never seen the water separator that’s great I am definitely going to get one, as well as a foot pedal. Genius putting a vibrator on the pan too; these are good upgrades. I was thinking of led strips to replace the lights I am not sure if they will hold up to the media though. Still doing some research on that. I have been using the smallest nozzle on my gun, I honestly forget what its flow rate is but with my 2.5 running around 7 cfm stays at 80psi in use. With aluminum oxide I don’t have any issues running out of air. Though the compressor runs pretty much non-stop. I got the compressor on facebook marketplace for like $100 so I don’t care if the engine burns out. If I have to replace it I was thinking of a two stage compressor, but I will cross that bridge when I come to it.
@@icandothat905So the unit I got from Harbor freight was the MERLIN 3/8 in. NPT(F) Air Filter with Regulator. They have a 1/2 inch and a 14 inch option as well. I went with the 3/8s option because the 1/4 inch unit looked anemic. It says its an air filter but if you read the description it says that it filters out water molecules down to 40 Microns. I heard somewhere that the farther away from the compressor that you placed the separator the more time the water molecules have to condense improving the efficiency of the separator so I mounted mine on the blast cabinet and that's where I connect the air hose when I hook up to the cabinet. That way the air has to go through all 25 or 50 feet of the hose before it gets to the separator. I live in Florida and are Humidity level is always rated at "Ocean" so this thing puts in some work and the proof is when I hit that drain valve in the bottom after using the cabinet it blasts a nice puddle onto the floor. I also saw another video where a guy was modding his harbor freight cabinet and he replaced the lights with an LED kit from Home depot. Its 2X 2ft LED strips that sit in tubes and a separate ballast unit. The Strips and the ballast are magnetic so you don't have to drill through the cabinet to mount them. He mounted one on top of the viewing window and one below the viewing window. He has been running them for over a year now. I reached out to him the other day and he said that they were still working flawlessly. So I ordered a set online because I couldn't find a local store that carried them and I'm waiting for them to arrive now. The ends of the tubes are open so I'm thinking that I'm going to close them up with a hot glue gun or something. If you go onto home depots website you search: Dual 2 ft. 34-Watt Equivalent Integrated LED White Strip Light Fixture Magnetic Linear LED Troffer Retrofit Kit 4000K I figure when I go to pick them up I will also grab a glass window pain to replace the lexan/plexi stuff.
This is great thanks so much for sharing!!
Every China brake is packed like that. I had a brake show up that was over 100 pounds and it was packed in the same way. Same foam and box looked worse.
Found one on Google under $100
I saw one for 46 USD on miloyale.com but the variance here in price made me Leary it was a scam. If you order one and it’s legit def post the link that’s a great deal!
@stephendriver1, ever order that bolt buster that you found on google?
Holly shit you had the trigger locked down on start-up
It’s not locked down, on some starts it’s in an idle high state. You have to tap the trigger to cancel it. The instructions say nothing about this. If you pull the trigger it bogs out like it’s not getting enough gas.
There all built in the land of china, total garbage but they do all right for us diyers
I would love to see a harbor freight model and compare. I would imagine they are pretty much the same.
A quick update for anyone interested. I have used this for around 6-8 hours of total run time. The chainsaw runs like a champ. The engine is strong and never bogs down. Starting the chainsaw is a mix. Sometimes it starts and goes into a low idle other times it immediately idles high. You have to follow the comment below and let it run for a moment and then tap the throttle and it’s ready to go. I really like it, I dropped a lot on it and the case held up great. Seems like good quality and is quickly becoming my favorite purchase.
I have 2 of these , unbelievable for the money , would recommend stihl or Oregon chain
Yeah it’s been working great. I’m surprised the quality for the price point.
@@icandothat905I had the old salem master pro saw just like that saw you got
When you start it from cold with choke, it will automatically high idle let it do that for 5 seconds then pull the throttle, that will cancel high idle and run normally.
Ah thanks for letting me know that explains what happened when I tried to adjust it.
Quick follow up for anyone interested. Since the initial start this has not idled high again. Every start is fine and I’m not sure what I hit with the screwdriver when fumbling around initially but it hasn’t been an issue. Runs great so far I’m really liking it.
On the depth gauge on the left, are you able to unscrew the top most nut in order to get slightly further travel than 3 1/8"?
Yes the top nuts will come completely off but the full travel is 3 1/8 regardless
@@icandothat905 Gotcha, thank you!
Check water percentage and color of the fluid. Even if the water percentage is ok, generally its a good idea to to change the fluid if its been like 5 years. Idk how long u had the car but u can probably get away with not changing the fluid for another 10k miles or a year. But yea i would consider changing it next year.
Ye well, I mean, who's not a scammer these days? I got this little device myself, learnt to change filters, check tyres, pressure and oil level/colour, but that's all I can do without getting to passionate about things lol
Very true, I hope if nothing else it just serves as a reminder to second guess things. I try not to get too worked up but this got under my skin.
You are right. Brake fluid is Hygroscopic and absorbs water from the environment. On average it's been said a vehicle can absorb 1.5% moisture each year. It's good to check brake fluid each year, specially on older vehicles. Some recommend changing brake fluid every 5 years.
Thanks for the info!
I just checked my brake fluid. 0% water. Been 5 years. 💪
Quick Note: I said condensation is how the fluid gets in, I don't think this is right. I believe brake fluid naturally absorbs it from the air, anyone out there with more knowledge please feel free to correct me.
I have owned this unit since 2017, using it several times a week and it is solid.
So far I’m very impressed with it.
@@icandothat905 I like things to run silent. A 3/8 rubber matt under the base has cut the sound by 75%>
i highly recommend you upgrade to a foot pedal. Your hand will be very tired very fast holding that trigger. been there, done that.
Yeah this is solid advice
I just received my B40 with the extended legs. The shipping box for the legs was broken on both sides and half of the bolts and nuts obviously were lost during shipping because these folks didn’t take the precaution of placing them in a plastic bag. The shipping box was very fragile for such heavy legs, of course it was going to break while shipping. Eastwood is sending me a new set of bolts and nuts. I had the same experience as you with the B40 blaster. All the components were just “thrown” carelessly inside the cabinet. I’m very disappointed with the carelessness which Eastwood packs it’s products. Hopefully it will work as advertised. Not impressed so far.
That sucks sorry to hear it but seems par for the course with this cabinet. So far it’s worked well, but I don’t have anything to compare it to. Overall I am happy with it, but man they need to get their act together with shipping what a disappointment.
Did your compressor struggle being a shy below the minimum requirements?
Not really unless I get below 60psi in the tank and it just can’t keep up. I need to stop and let the tank get back up to pressure. It’s not so annoying that I am ready to buy a big compressor, but if I was using this every day I’d spring for one with a higher cfm.
@@icandothat905 Thanks. I'm going to connect 2 x 1hp compressors = 6.6 cfm @ 90psi to a reserve tank in the middle. That way I can later add a 3rd 1hp compressor if its not enough. Much cheaper and quieter this way. Appreciate you responding.
Thank you for demonstrating on using this cabinet 👍
"Do the Job Right"... I hear you on companies not giving an "F" anymore. You're the only deep dive video. Ive decided on th B40 because it hits that sweet spot in size for semi pro/hobby without being cramped. They are all garbage, but Eastwood goes a few steps from the clones. Namely the lid gasket is square (not with round corners), the intake filter, but most importantly is comes 90% assembled! All the other China cabinets ship flatpack; probably adding another 4hrs or so to my day. So for that I choose to overpay for theirs vs the other similiarly situated cabinets.
Not sure if you ordered yours yet just a few thoughts after running this cabinet a bunch. 1) yeah they are all garbage but this is working well. I do wonder if it was worth the price though. 2) the top loading design was the feature that sold me on this unit, I don’t have the space for a side loader. 3) the vacuum is awesome but isnt set up for the 40lb unit. If you are handy and can improvise it’s not hard to get it all set up. I forgot how much I went into that portion but if you are interested I can post a short video of that hookup. Just let me know.
Thanks so much for the reply. For dust extraction I am going with an inline filter box and 150 cfm inline fan exhausted out the window. This is extremely quiet at 29 decibels compared to the 83 decibles of the Eastmen dust extractor. Also cheaper at $200. @@icandothat905

Glad it was helpful. I use this thing all the time. I had to put up a shelf today and needed to put a bracket in the middle, makes life a lot easier.
Finishes come in synthetics and natural types. The thinner you use is for this type. Urethanes and varnishes differ from lacquer and mixing thinners made for a type can lead to this. So if your thinner says “for paints varnishes and more” check your finish with the right type of thinner to use.
Just leaving the valve Open isn't going to dry the inside of that tank. The valve has a total diameter of a quarter inch. Going to take an awfully long time to exchange the air in there enough to dry anything.
Thanks for the comment this lead me down a rabbit hole of two camps the closed vs open storage opinions. What I've found is that many people leave the valve open, assuming the tank will eventually dry but it makes sense what you are saying. However, per DeVillBiss manual: "After the water has been drained, close the drain valve (clockwise). The air compressor can now be stored"
These are useful to have when you eat corn on the cob, and it gets stuck in your teeth.
Thanks for the video! If you get a minute can you tell me the dimensions of the base and the top part, and the height of the whole thing? I'm hoping to purchase one and figuring out if it will fit on my workbench.
Sorry, missed this comment - the base is 16" x 9.75", overall height is 37" and the overall depth is about 22" (had to eyeball it) from the back of the motor to the table (not extended).
