Interesting ! More of a project than I would take on, though.

Woo hoo ! Free tools. I'm in ! Thanks to SK and Ryan.

Yes. Same here.

I liked it, too. I'm not a machinist and wouldn't even know where to find the on / off switch on some of those machines, but I can appreciate a nice shop. If nothing else it motivates me to get my own place cleaned up.

Very cool ! I have always wanted to make a diorama of an old 50's era Texaco station. I don't know if I will ever actually have the time or not, though. I can't imagine how many hours of work went into the examples shown here.

Interesting story, Lee. That's some vice !:thumbup:

There are some great looking benches here. This one was built by my Uncle many years ago and passed on to me. I was going to make and add some drawers for the middle but thought twice about it. I want to leave it just as he built it. He serviced and repaired a lot of small engines and yard...

Check out this one. No plans exactly but you could figure it out. I would like to make one for myself. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=193399

I saw one of these at Sears in Winnipeg a few years ago. Not something I would buy. To me, it's kind of like the fridge that had the TV built into the door. ( by coincidence, also for sale at Sears at about the same time. )

I see G.J. has moved on to a new post. Be sure to keep updating here. I will be looking back. Enjoy the weekend.

It does seem pricey for guys on here that would likely have the equipment and skills to build it themselves.

This looks like another interesting story shaping up. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures after it's all cleaned up. Off to a good start already.

Those sound more like the kind of cars I would rather be around anyway.

This is cool, guys. I still have a screwdriver that my Dad bought when I was 12. I remember walking down to the hardware store...you know, one of the old ones that aren't around anymore..and talking with him. A good memory.

Interesting video. I wish I had more time to pursue projects like that. Happy New Year to all the readers.
