Gregor, I know you probably already know this but Schaller boxes are perfect for the vidmar and lista cabinets and drawers. And this is the craziest part they are cheaper than 3D printing them at home. Top drawer of my lista is all schaller boxes, its a junk drawer but a nicely organized junk...

I am a bit behind after a year or so of not logging in, moving, trying to finish out a new shop, quit my job, going to school and with Gregors advice of not having a back up plan trying to make a go at my own thing! But its nice to see old habits die hard... I got to the post about baking...

duty cycle. something about the oil and not thinning out enough and causing premature failure. We have 13 screw/scroll compressors in our company and we have had a few issues with guys shutting them down at night mid cycle and it causing issues. I will say though I love them and how quiet...

I have no recommendations on the multi color lenses, the yellow gives me a headache but I will say in my opinion the bigger the glasses are the more comfy, because I feel like I can see, I dont see the edges of the glasses in my line of sight so I am more likely to keep them on. I buy these 4...

careful with the wood, it will split. Not it could split, it will split. Probably not the first time you use it but over time. in all honesty they make lifting pads like the pinch pucks for use on lifts. work very nicely for cushioning along the pinch. In commercial use they last quite a...

yeah, thank you.

have snap on and cornwell mid lengths, I love them. I find my self lusting after snap on orange handle screw drivers. but no the new ones, ones like my dad and grandpa had. wish I could find a NIB from the 70's/80's whenever they were new.

not directed at you but just for posting sake for weekenders or hobbyists who see this. Look for an arrow on the rocker or pinch weld, thats where they want you to lift the car. Its getting much more common.

I saw a youtube video quite a while back and the dad of the youtuber was showing his old tool box from when we worked on helicopters in the bush. He had a really cool inspection mirror that he could move from the handle. I really want one of these, BUT 1. finding it on google escapes me...

I have used these and jack stands specifically made for pinch welds and they worked really awesome for the job we were doing. Cant say anything bad about something that makes your job easier, possibly safer and leaves the item being worked on in just as good condition as when it came in.

We had this discussion the other day at work. I have almost exclusively Snap-on ratchets other than the 120XP I got for free from a drawing. The young guys asked me if snap on was my favorite tool. I told them I really dont have a favorite as long as its the right one for the job and doesnt...

Not soon enough!

Not every day but yeah it will need to roll up into my eurovan. Figure some ramps or just loading it on and off the alignment rack like we sometimes to with heavy stuff. Guys thank you all for the suggestions

Thought about it but it's wasted space underneath I would rather have drawers all the way. but I do agree I bought one of those years ago then gave it to an apprentice and it has been passed around a lot and still going strong.

I am doing some "consulting" and training with the company I was with for a bit over 10 years. I am in charge of tire, alignment, brakes, fluid maintenance, inspection and lift safety training. I am traveling to 4 different stores and about to expand to another owners stores and I can see this...
