    Need new flashlight

    https://www.amazon.com/Maglite-3-Cell-Flashlight-Tactical-Black/dp/B00QQ9S1W8/?tag=atomicindus08-20 I have too many flashlights ( I can admit that here) but this XL50 and older XL100's are all over my house in various drawers etc. Always work. Bright enough for most domestic things. I have...

    When I read ” house priests” I went back through the prior three pages of posts thinking that I missed something :lol_hitti :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

    The OKnife U1 Utility Folder

    They are super sharp. Hold an edge better than the Dewalt or Milwaukee IMO. You can occasionally find them on Amazon. I bought a lifetime supply the last time I saw them. 😎 I am a huge fan of Tajima tools for woodworking. Commercial grade stuff mostly. Ebay is your friend

    The OKnife U1 Utility Folder

    Good News. Just picked up this C.H.U.B. flipper for $90+ tax online. Quite a few sites with the same price so it looks like Chaves were able to get the price down without too much compromise.

    Home workshop collective group

    I hear ya. What I was thinking was if they had something specific that you needed (“ check it out before you pay”) then it might be an option. So if they had a 2” tube die that you referenced, it might be easier and safer to use it in a place like this. If it’s not for you- that’s cool. I have...

    This is in Carrollton https://dallasmakerspace.org/ $72/month. You do not have to pay annual. I would poke around there to see if you can find the proper help/equipment before joining. No need to reinvent the wheel so to speak :). I'm way over here on the leftist Coast so no help to you I'm...

    Between 485 & 705 SQ/FT A MidCentury Shop In Scotland

    VICTOR BERGERON crate probably from Trader Vic’s, the original tiki bar chain in the US that opened just before WWII I believe. I worked in the one in NYC in the 80’s.

    Looks Great! Any thought of building a riser to bring the flammables cabinet top to the same height as the rest of your cabinets/table? I am about to start my own garage redo and a friend suggested that idea. Looking forward to more updates!

    I may have to live in a cardboard house!

    Just a thought. An option for a little privacy for, and from, your kiddo. I spent a summer sleeping in one of those old Coleman 8 person tents in my uncles garage back in the day. It was green canvas and heavy as hell. Kinda like having my own room since there was no space for me in the house...
