    What's the wierdest thing that's happened in your garage?

    Not me but my grand father. He always would burn random garbage in a 55 gal drum (burn barrel) basically anyhting he could fit. One night he was burning some papers and was stirring it up and the barrel exploded! He suffered 3rd degree burns on his face right ear and right arm with some green...

    Best tool you've ever found in the street

    I was just reading this thread a few day's ago thinking WTF I've never found any tool's in the street! Low and behold last night in the back of a parking lot I spotted a pile of junk and of course I had to check it out. Well I found a u.s. made napa 3/8 ratchet, napa breaker bar, and some...

    Outside vise?

    IDK I just figure that since WD displaces water it would work well. I just don't have anywhere to mount it inside so this is really my only option if I want to actually use it.

    Craigslist deal

    Being in a fire couldn't hurt them that bad could it? Seems like nothing a little elbow grease couldn't take care of.

    Outside vise?

    So I was thinking since I don't have a work bench and my vise is mounted on a waist high 4ft long I-beam on caster's, Could I just soak it in WD-40 and leave it outside? The handle, jaws, work plate and slide are unpainted.

    $60 Snap-On box

    Ya this thing probably wouldn't fit in inside one of those high speed squeeky clean garages. It'll definitely do the job for me though. The drawers all work awesome and the lid is square and the lock works... Good 'nuff fo me!

    $60 Snap-On box

    Whoooo hooo! This SOB is heavy, **** I think it would be worth the $60 just for scrap! Seeing as how my truck is not currently on the road I had to take the wife's car... 2007 mazda3. I'm sure most of you can imagine 3 guys trying to wedge a 200lb box into that little car, to say the least it...

    $60 Snap-On box

    Just found this on CL for $60 (sixty). It is a KRA62C. One of the handles is broken and the emblem came off and there is some silicone type material all over it. I think it will clean up nicely though. I gotta go pick this thing up, later fella's!!

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    That craftsman/ columbian... whatever it is was some kind of blue grey, I tried to replicate it but umm it turned out not so much. Maybe in a few years I'll get some more motivation and splash some red on it! ( and not paint the slide :thumbup:)
