My shop is 32' wide by 24' deep. The metal lean to was added for garden equipment. I'm looking for ideas for the best way to add to it while matching the roof line. I think making it wider to the left(North) will be the easiest. Current shop is 10' would like the new one to be 12'...

Welcome. Tons of good info here. Lots of Oklahoma people too.

Don't know how I missed this when you first posted. Nice place you have there. I live close to the 3 mile line off of hwy 37. Tons of guys with shops filled with cool stuff down here. If ya need any help from a neighbor send me a pm on this site. 4 hands are better than two. Matt

Nice place. Do you still have the swb or another project? Who is building your shop? I hope to add to my current shop at some point since I'm running out of room. Good luck with it.

Really nice place. Good to see another Oklahoman on here. I was fortunate to have a shop at my place when we moved here. What work or toys are going in the shop?

Thanks for the links over to weldingweb. That will be some good reading. It looks like I need to step up and get a bigger MIG eventually or find a table that's already made.

I've searched a little here and on the web and thought I'd ask some questions. I have a Lincoln 135 Mig with CO2/Argon mix. I need a table to fit a fender onto occasionally. So will my welder be able to handle 4x4 tubing and a decent top? Have you guys build a table with this small of a...

WOW. Nice work. I love the squarebodies too. I had an 87 that I sold so I can focus on my Olds'. I may get one again and do a crew cab sb 3/4 ton. I assume you are on 67-72chevytrucks.com. Are you going to run an LS motor?

I'm interested in how you go with this build. I'm in Tuttle and want to put a few scissor trusses in my existing 24'x36. Who are you using for the trusses? I'd like to talk to them about my ideas. Good luck with the build.

I just ordered a carbide bit for weld grinding. I'd like to win 24" and 11" vise grip welding c clamps, spot weld vise grips and 4.5" grinding discs. Thanks.

I picked it up today for $70. I think I did OK but didn't steal it either. It will need new jaws eventually. I will post pics soon.

I don't have it for sale. It's a vise that I saw and ad for. He's asking $150. Thanks for the input. I'll wait another week or so and maybe make an offer.

How much is a Reed 104R worth? It has 4" jaws and a fixed base. It appears un restored but the handle is not bent. Thanks. Matt

That makes sense from what I was hearing when I was messing with it. I wonder where I "light" the pilot. There is no obvious spot. Thanks for the help.
