    Got A Vidmar Cabinet. Now What?

    Saw this new (with dent) 35x30x42 Vidmar cabinet on Offerup for $80. Took it home, attached some casters, and found some space in the garage for it. It looks like it has the adjustable inserts for shelves or a drawer but I am having a hard time finding any info on Vidmar's site or the internet...

    Lets see your workbench

    The kids and I put a $20 led light strip in to give a little more light. After light strip: It even changes colors for when I am on a disco meth binge.

    Lowe’s out of touch

    I did not look to closely but I remember the power tools and boxes sporting “Made in USA...” labeling all over them. I thought maybe they were trying to rebuild the brand so they could ride it into the dirt again.

    Opinions on selling inherited tools.

    This could be a great opportunity to use your Dad's old tools to teach his Grandson about money, value, organization, researching etc. Spring and Summer break is coming up. Would be a cool project to create an inventory and an Ebay store that he could manage. He could learn how to research...

    Does cost REALLY dictate quality?

    The few "rich" people I know personally are very goal-oriented and focused on time-management. Researching tools or spending time fixing toys instead of enjoying them with what little "free" time they have is for schlubs like us with more time and less money.

    Does cost REALLY dictate quality?

    I think a major thing that is always missing from these conversations is how branding works. We all know that all tool brands have an ever changing scope of quality and manufacture. Investors and parent companies want every ounce of profit they can get out of a brand's reputation before they...

    Snap on his absolute JUNK he proclaimed!!

    Sounds like a lot of old guys I have known that like to say stuff just to get a reaction or be a character like he saw elders when he was younger. Bet he knows a lot of useful stuff though mixed in with all the show. And Hoorah Mark and Vince-BU “A” school Hueneme 94’

    Lets see your workbench

    We moved my mother in law this Summer and she would stack her **** on my workbench constantly. When we moved to this house I kept the old bench as a decoy bench (pictured right) so she would stay away from my new bench. Has worked well so far. She piles stuff on the decoy every day...

    Do you carry a pocket knife?

    Another Swiss Army Knife daily guy here. Mine is a basic Spartan. Gets used every day but to be honest mostly just opening boxes and bottles of beer.
