    Nazi Eagle stamped V Block

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I installed a new track bar in my jeep wrangler today. Then went for a test drive. Heard a crunch - crunch and only then remembered that my phone was sitting on my front bumper.

    How do you park your vehicles?

    In my garage, with my hobbies, I have dirt bikes, street bikes, mountain bikes, skis, fly rods, and tools and more tools. The common theme is that there is always something in the way.

    Is there a portable table of some sort that you can grab with one handle and put your stuff on it?

    Connecting air compressors

    There is a video on YouTube -- which I cannot find but if you have better google fu you might be able to -- that details how to string several together in a way that one trips on a second or so after the one before it. It prevents them from all kicking on at the same time and blowing fuses.

    Right, and everyone in the world needs to think the same way as you. You are gatekeeping this forum. You should relax a little. Cool, attack my intelligence and politics. You don't even know me.

    Most Impressive SO Box I've Seen

    Um, the combination of the ridiculously expensive custom SO Tool Box plus all the little knick-knacks was more of what I was referring to. Where was it stated in the OP that they do flat rate?

    The minute I saw that box, I'd get back in my car and go to the next shop. I am not paying extra to finance that guys obsession with SciFi.
