We miss you Brian!

Re: From losing everything to being cash-poor and shop-rich in "only" five years! That looks bee-utiful! Of course beauty is in the eye of the bee-holder. You should probably bee more careful! The bee probably just wanted you to buzz off! You know Bee-yonce has a new song out with Megan...

I vote for smooth & polish. You can always beadblast if you don't like the way it looks after polishing.

Excuse the mess, but a photo of the table now:

Indeed - Jess, you inspired me to finally refurbish and upgrade the Harbor Freight motorcycle lift table that I have had sitting around with stuff piled on top of it for ages. I don't think I took any before/after photos, but I removed the HF wheel vise and replaced it with a much larger and...

I love the property - a detached shop and attached garage seems the best of both worlds. I am a huge fan of the Ubiquiti UniFi stuff too. When I remodel, I am planning to use a PoE Switch and WAPs too - they just work so well at work and are so affordable. I also like the fact that PoE allows...

Re: Mobile Vise Brilliant! I have that same vice and have been trying to think of a good way to use it (particularly to rebuild MC forks with a set of soft jaws) and that is perfect! I will be looking to copy you!

Re: The Concrete might be Underground but I'm not. woohoo!!! Welcome back!

another picture of the area...

got a quick reply today: "Race Street was off Pine Street directly behind the buildings on Main Street. The street was removed when the parking ramp was constructed. No idea on RV. I will take a look" The semi-circular structure in this picture is the parking ramp. So Race street was very...

I haven't heard back from the historian's office yet - but It has only been a week... Maybe I'll try calling on Tuesday. :fingersx:

I contacted the Niagara County Historian's Office: (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Niagara-County-Historians-Office/299057299891) Hopefully they will be able to tell us something about it, they seem to know everything about Lockport (I sure miss the place sometimes). I didn't remember there being...

Wow!!! Lockport is my home-town. Harrison Radiator was the largest employer in town when I was a kid, 'Harrison's' eventually became Delphi, but there was a lot of industry in the area prior to 'urban renewal.' I'm interested to find out more about that jack!
