    Metal Cabinets vintage or homemade and no name toolboxes. got any to show please do

    I finally started work on my Craftsman 05198. I noticed something wedged into the drive nut. It was a very crude piece of metal in the adjustment area of the drive nut. Let me tell you I haven't taken this much care in doing anything in a long time. Any guesses as to what in the world it was...

    Not a lot of sales out my way. I did come across a striking piece that overwhelmingly looked like my ex. I just had to have it. Sometimes you just can’t let go. I hope you understand…..

    Your friendly PSA for the day. Be careful when bringing your lady with you on your hunt for treasure. She may begin to like it more than you and the back of your truck can quickly be filled with artificial Christmas trees, totes of stamping supplies and medieval knight helmets lol. These are...

    6.5" vs 7.25" circ saw

    I have both in my shop. Definitely the smaller saw gets used more. Only for the fact I don't have to string a cord.
