Although I am on several different forums for different things (sport bikes, sport bikes, old trucks, etc.), I don't think that I have come this close to spitting beer out of my nose for a long time. As for the poster that washes the shop rags, then the dog bed, then the coveralls? Really? you...

Wow, I have picked up several ideas from this thread... Receiver "hitch" with a "big *** vice" for the 4x6 workbench I have (made out of 4x4 framing with caster wheels w/locks) will allow me to get it out of the way most of the time. Also now thinking about a small welding table (2x2ish) with a...

Awesome idea. My "Entertainment" section of the shop is a computer workstation area with three chairs around it that can be moved to work on stuff, a small shelving unit with an XBox and 24 inch HD LCD...and a fridge...

What part of Idaho are you from? My Dad and Uncle have a small collection of Jeeps.

If I ever win the lottery, I will make a turnaround area in my "garage"! :thumbup:

I joined up on this forum a while ago and have been lurking for a bit. The one thing that I have noticed is that about 85% of you have better shops than I do.

I would have bought one of them for cheap and used it and abused it without ever knowing that they were worth something more than a good vise at a good price...

I built (scabbed together) a shop years ago and poured the floor with a pit in it. It was about 8 x 4 and worked great for the work that I was doing. Sandy ground in a mild climate so didn't have water problems. Only downsides were ease of access to it (short ladder), a friend that almost...

I wish I was 1/3rd as organized as that. I knew I joined this forum for a reason other than to drool over other peoples shops. The screwdriver holder is a great idea. I am currently rethinking my tool organization and moving things from the tool box (currently jammed with stuff) to using my...
