I have one that filters through a 2 gallon bucket of water before the shop vac. It works pretty well, any remaining dust falls to the floor. No cloud of dust when sanding. The only problem is it leaves sanding marks from the screen due to the suction so I finish sand with a sanding sponge.

Wonder if you could swap 1 truss for a scissor truss? That would give you a 48" on center opening.

I had the switch fail on a couple years old Challenger CL10V3 lift at work. Thankfully there was a disconnect or it likely would have burned up the motor by the time the breaker was found.

I had my challenger lift installed with the columns swapped at work. The left front arm would hit the power unit if left straight forward, as long as the arm is under the vehicle it was fine. My challenger lift at home has the power unit installed up high with remote controls on both sides...

I'd personally wait for the new one to be released. I believe as of now the only ones available are the original, high speed and high speed extended.

Bought a makita track saw and 2 55" tracks. It has yet to be used. If it was cordless it would have already been sold. I should try to sell it but being corded it may take a while.

For automotive I use a streamlight stinger and a maxxeon cyclops 800.

I'm jealous of the dedication to organization in this thread. I have 1 drawer of semi organized hardware and two 5 gallon buckets of automotive hardware from my years as an auto tech. Those buckets of bolts saved many jobs, was the difference of finishing a job or ordering a bolt/nut and moving...

In for a set, now we'll see if they get canceled. Was able to pick my set up. Thanks

I prefer the open-end/flare nut style. The wide jaw of the open-end has saved many fittings/nuts for me through the years.

I just pulled them off and put the lags back in with sealer on the threads and over the top. A few grains from the gutter and good to go.

Good luck getting snapon to allow another driver to encroach on a stop outside of their route. One shop that I worked for was the last stop at the edge of a route. When we lost the driver for our route snapon told the driver who literally served the shop across the road that he was not to set...

I have that saw, good deal.

I'd jump on it for that price, especially if there are any tools of value in it.

I would consider a radiant tube heater if you have the available celing height. I have owned a home with in floor radiant heat and have worked my entire adult life in shops with overhead radiant tube heat. I have found that overhead radiant tube heat has a much quicker recovery than in floor...
