    Homemade table saw table

    Honestly I love those casters. Got them on Amazon for $20. They look undersized but they are solid and roll like butter. The lock is 2 way so it keeps them from rotating as well as rolling. I think they are rated for 200lbs each Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Homemade table saw table

My requirements were a sturdy and easy to move fence with a built in tape measure, it needed to be big enough to make up to a 4’ cut, to...

    The LawnLift 1000 - Lawn Mower turned forklift

    Sorry it's taken forever but here is a bad video. Doesn't show much but better than nothing. The latest enhancements include a 70lb concrete weight added to hold the back down. I painted it black, so it looks a little better now. And I finally built a gearbox to reverse the transmission...

    I have been slacking on my updates, so sorry about that. I haven't done much lately but I did get it operational and have used it a couple times already, it works pretty well. Here are a few pics in action: The last one shows the 2 levels I can place the forks to get extra height. The...
