    2 car detached workshop

    To break down what all I'm trying to make enough room for, and figure out how to organize correctly, here's a breakdown of what all I have been grabbing, storing, and using the last few years! As shown previously, the metal cabinet from , next to the aluminum workbench. Today I welded on the...

    2 car detached workshop

    Been a whirlwind of activity since we moved all the way in to the new house, almost entirely spent on the house itself! We had to clean up the old Knob/Tube wiring throughout the house, and ended up getting into a bathroom remodel as well. Turned out fantastic, but it took much longer than...

    2 car detached workshop

    Picked up a few new pieces for the garage in the last week or so - still prepping to lift/replace the sills, hoping this weekend. I've begun packing up my current garage, it's as tough as I was expecting! It's hard to not be moving things in, but we're working on getting the bathroom...

    2 car detached workshop

    Hey guys, Haven't been on here very much in a while, but I recently purchased a house and have a garage to call my own! (and my fiances) It's a small 2 car, 20'x18'. The house had lots of knob/tube and some electrical problems, so we had an electrician out to replace the main circuit breaker...

    Motor Generator Corporation Pedestal buffer

    Got some of it torn back apart today, the "shields" off, and put a little bit of fresh grease in it. Here's the link to the YouTube vid of it running. Runs great, really smooth. I have a new cord to splice in that should make it that much safer to use as well.

    Motor Generator Corporation Pedestal buffer

    Hey all, been a long time since I posted here. I recently picked up this old buffer/grinder on Facebook marketplace. I happened to see it about 30 minutes after it got posted, and I beat a huge crowd apparently. In summary: It's wired for 110v and does run - heard it before I got it. It needs...

    Chopped 51 Merc Build

    Forgive my ignorance here, but what is this for? Is there a name for the uses? I'd like to learn more... Love the car. This forum helped identify a 51 Merc' from a picture I had with my grandfather in front of a car. Happily following!

    Cleaning up an old Scroll Saw

    I have zero concern with resell value - I'm just wondering if I "should" replace anything other than the belt before running it. I also understand that parts may be expensive, but thats something I won't find out until I know if/what I need to replace

    Cleaning up an old Scroll Saw

    Hey guys, I went out to pick up some steel plate the other day and ended up coming home with this guy as well, for $10. My plan is to do the minimum amount of work to get it up and functional again! I got it plugged in and the motor still runs (whoo!) but the belt didn't move at all, so that...
