I just inherited an Emmert tiger 40 from my grandfathers work bench. He passed last year and it’s been on his bench as long as I can remember. Can’t seem to find much info on the brand though. Anyone have any brochures or age ideas? The bench it came off of is pretty cool too I took it as well...

I believe there is a unit you can purchase and add my q to any opener now. I agree that is a nice feature. Just watched a video on tensioning the springs and everyone in the comments said to just pay someone to do it. I’m the Type of person who would rather just do it myself than setup an...

Wow you could eat off that floor!! I see what you mean those look like they would work well for my situation. And yes I supposed I’ll have to figure out what’s up with the springs maybe they weren’t turned enough. This unit looks like it might be similar that I’d would chain up to the shaft w...

I have seen that in my searches and thought it may work but was concerned about the short chain I didn’t realize you could lengthen it that may work. I have the same exact issue on the other door and I could drop the openers to different heights even if I had to

Setup looks fairly new but I’ll check today when I get home from work. Wonder what my options would be for a door opener though.

I agree I’m wonder if the spring is not loaded enough. Might just have a company come out and look at them

Did a quick search but this is sort of situational anyways just bought a house with dream shop on the property 30x40 barn with full loft. Has two garage doors measuring 11x12 currently has no openers and they’re quite heavy my wife struggles opening them so we want openers but I’m looking at the...

Holy cow what a repair job. That guy really knew what his was doing. I'm also digging the original patina on your vise and power arm Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

I use a lanky setup. Works well doesnt brake the bank either Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

You could also get a roll of weld wire. Harbor freight sells it cheap in a few different sizes er90s I believe. That should do the trick Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

What would you guys suggest for stripping the paint and rust I had originally thought media blast but someone had mentioned electrolysis.. I dont know anything about it or how to do it. But I love learning new things Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Good morning all I have a acquired another vise... I'm sure the wife is ready to kill me lol it's a chase parker 974 1/2 they were going to toss it at work so I scooped it up. Want to strip the paint and either refinish it with paint or powder coat. Not sure which direction I want to go with...

Hey garage journal brothers and sisters. Up for sale is my power arm that I took apart and refinished last year. Works flawlessly. Starting to do some spring cleaning and trying to get some money together to build a new shed. Not sure of the year. Any questions please ask. 225$ or B.O local...
