thanks

I bought a car battery to run my truer off....i liked the fact that i wouldnt be relying on mains power then.
I just give it a charge (on a standard car battery charger) prior to race day and it serves me well

A lot of guys on race days simply pop the hood of their car and connect straight to the car battery with their truer.

All f the arbors I have seen are universal. I am 99% sure the Hudy arbors will fit the 3racing truer. The 3racing arbors are pretty inexpensive though and are not poor quality.

I have the Integy truer but I'm not happy with the cutting bit that comes with the truer. I'm thinking about to replace it with the carbide bit from Hudy. The question is will it fit my Integy truer ? If not, What do I need to do to make it fit

But do not make a mistake the hudy auto truer is the best one on the market.

There ya go

I have an OFNA truer. I noticed that the blade or "bit" as some calls it, is not making smooth cuts. What do you suggest that I do? Is it easy to order the blade for my OFNA truer? Thanks

Buy the Hudy carbide cutting bit, it's the best investment you can make if you have the OFNA truer. But it costs about $40.00
