Here are some Epiq contributions to this thread courtesy of GJ member lugnut71. A co-worker of his just got the new Epiq add on drawer unit. This comes with 2 casters and is designed to attach to an existing Epiq rollcab but they went ahead and installed a 2nd set of casters making it...

My SS sent me some sticker swag, an awesome new die grinder, some really stout Klein wire strippers that I can't wait to try out and a vintage Craftsman ratchet that brings back fond childhood memories of countless hours spent perusing the Sears tool catalog! Thank you to my SS and to those who...

I looked for a year or so in my area before I found my Craftsman. It was listed @ $160 but I got it for $120. It's in really good shape and works perfectly. I've cleaned it up a bit from when I got it but haven't completely disassembled and restored it yet. I'm currently designing a mobile...

In regards to the discussion above about original paint colors for baby bullets, a contributor over on the "Bench Vises Forever" Facebook page recently had a dream pick we vise nuts dream of. He picked up 5 baby bullets on the same day. I saved the pic and I do believe there is a possibility...
