    Drill doctor

    I've had good luck with mine over the years. I suspect that the drill loses its temper and won't stay sharp for quite as long as when it was factory fresh, but it does a good job of making spent drills sharp again.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Tore the dashboard out of my C6 Corvette for installation of an OEM Heads Up Display...so many pieces...so many connections...so much fun.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Re: what did you do in your garage today? I was in pretty good shape from a PPE standpoint...eye protection...hearing protection...a hat on my bald noggin...long sleeves...gloves...but it managed to sneak in between the glove and my sleeve...took my eye off the ball for a split second and lost...

    gas monkey garage surprise

    Boyd seemed like more of a talent...albeit a cranky old *****. Richard Rawlings is a personality...but I think he freely admits his lack of mechanical aptitude. My favorite guy is Roger Barr from Chasing Classic Cars...I'd happily spend a day handing him tools, keeping my mouth shut, and...

    gas monkey garage surprise

    Wow! There's a lot to digest here. Some really strong opinions about TV characters. I like the show. It's fun and silly and entertaining. I don't really do a lot of donuts and burnouts myself, but its fun to watch someone having a good time. I'm not exactly learning much, but I'm happy...

    What is it????

    Where does your brother work? That might be the key clue.

    What is it????

    I agree that it looks like its meant to clamp onto a cable or other cylindrical material...seems like a very specialized application. I love this game!

    What is it?

    The way the switch is actuated makes me think its a flow switch. There's a pivoting arm that you shouldn't really need for a pressure switch. Most pressure switches simply "T" off of the line and dead end at the switch. The position of the pivot indicates that there is something in the path...

    Lifting experience

    I bought a 4 post from Greg Smith Equipment and have been very happy with it. I think it's a 9000lb extra tall model. I found the build quality to be very robust and it has functioned flawlessly for the past couple years.

    Socket Rails

    I like these magnetic rails from Craftsman...the holders twist 90 degrees to lock and unlock so it doesn't require any real force to install or remove...and the magnets are very strong. I reall like that the rails don't move around when you're messing with your sockets or moving toolboxes.

    Dust Collector for Sandblast Cabinet

    So, after farming out my sandblasting jobs for the past few years, I decided to pick up a sandblasting cabinet for my smaller jobs. I looked around and found a decent cabinet at Harbor Freight...the same one carried at Sears and Tractor Supply. I'm pretty sure that the gun itself is not the...
