Tractor Supply has some nice rails for $9.99. I too like my sockets on rails so I can bring a bunch to the project without multiple trips back to the box. I have the metric rails pointing left (Europe is more leftist than US) and SAE pointing right. Walmart also has some nice magnetic organizers.

Really excellent job! Looks as good or better than the "Big Expensive Boys"! Pics of the hutch and top fabrication would be appreciated by all. Thanks for the post

I have a Husqvarna YT 1542 with a 15 HP Kawasaki 2 cylinder motor and a 42" deck. It's a 2006. I cut half an acre and have had no problems. I also pull a areator, sweeper, trailer and use it to park the 14' Lund fishing boat at the end of the season and pull it back out in the spring. Last year...

Especially as you get older and have worked with your organized system for a long time!:thumbup:

Back in 1979 I had an Old English Sheepdog who had arthritis in his hips. We use to take long slow walks in the neighborhood. Trash collection day was Thursday. One Wednesday night we were walking an there was this home made wooden box on the sidewalk with other trash waiting for pickup. I...

I have the HF reel with the stock hose, ceiling mounted, for 3+ years with no problems. The garage is unheated and no issues with either. IIRC my wife got it for me as an XMAS present for $49 with a coupon.

This ^ Exactly what I got. The 4 drawer cart goes with the 72" HF box I got in 2015.:rocker:

Our family has had problems with these types of mats from other stores too with: 1. Thickness issues 2. Color issues 3. Sawtooth edges different among same brand but different lots purchased at different times. I think it is more than a HF issue.

3 houses, 1 condo, 2 garages, and 3 sheds over the past 41 years produced the following knowledge: One can never have enough garage or shed! NEVER! Please pay attention to the posts above about space. Since you are building you have a unique opportunity to design your space. Best wishes for...

Mercy! All these years I thought it was just me. GJ is so supportive! Thanks

+1 on the original Workmate. in addition to CL you can also get them at estate sales. If you register at estatesales.net and put tools as your interest (can put other stuff too), set the radius from your zip code, you will get an email with pictures. I skip all the furniture pics and go to the...

In my home garage I work mostly on small engines. 1/4 inch drive is used the most. I usually use shallow sockets but this thread has me thinking about using long sockets more often. I have a nice set of Snap On 6 pt SAE that I inherited from my dad, and Craftsman USA metrics that I bought...

I have had the HF 50 ft reel for 4 years with no trouble, but it doesn't get used daily in my garage. It is ceiling mounted in the center of the garage. Really easy to use! Prior to getting the HF reel (Xmas gift from wife) I had a manual cheap reel mounted low at the back of the garage. It was...

Freebo, not to sound like a curmudgeon but it appears that your gun successfully removes the nuts now that you added oil. So what if your gun isn't NASCAR fast! (Having said that I always press the trigger several times on my impact gun after I connect it to the air hose for that "NASCAR pit...

Radio: it quites the voices in my head!
