outstanding!

Just for posterity's sake, the threads on those inserts appear to be M14x1.5, verified by some trailer hitch-mounting bolts I had on hand a few weeks ago.

same here, though not quite 4 pages. first post in the garage sale thread with some pictures and a good story. Thanks for all that you're doing to keep this place great.

Haha, fair play. Thanks for quick reply. No special relationship. It just fits the space (under the loft in my shed, 6' high) and was free. But is also rather small to put anywhere else. But now you have me thinking about actually putting a 4 footer under there and repurposing the 2 footer...

Thanks for keeping this thread up. So much good info here. Platonic - your recommendations are awesome and super detailed. Thank you for your time. I have a weird, convoluted, but hopefully simple question. I have a single fixture in my shed that i'd like to upgrade to LED. It is a 24"...

Thanks Mike, that was admittedly taken 2 years ago about 6 weeks after a fresh overseed. I had knee surgery after that, and it hasn't looked quite the same since I took a few months off caring for it. It is still green and thick, but the weeds are taking over. This fall, I should have a chance...

nice project gallery you have here. I'm a reformed Turbobricks guy, had too many volvos to count, but none now The want I have for your JP MK18s is high...:drool:

Lots of newer homes, built recently. I would start looking soon, if you haven't already. If you need a good, responsive realtor, let me know. Ours is great. Stuff goes quickly here. There are definitely areas on the fringes between Midlothian and Powhatan where land is more plentiful. Or...

Hi all, I've been a lurker for a long time, but recently registered and started posting. My name is Billy and I live in Midlothian, VA, just outside of Richmond. I've been into cars, wooden boats, mechanical repairs and woodworking since I was little. I used to manage a repair/performance...

Cool build, following along. You've got a knack with words.

I have one of these in my 10x10 shed, and a few more at a shared shop space. It's plenty of light for my needs in the shed (I have a few other lights in there, definitely overkill). Hard to photograph with my phone camera, but it is bright. I wired in an outlet box run off switched power. I...

beats me....maybe a calendar holder?

I'd be more willing to bet it was near where a mop with chemicals was used. Almost looks like splatter up from the floor.

An assortment of taps, punches, files, feeler gauges and thread checkers. The Hazet 2760 "Oil Service Wrench" looks like it costs about $50 on Amazon. I'll have you know, this is ~$19 worth of staples, adjusted for inflation (I estimated them to be from ~1987). A pack of bulbs from Trak...

Wasn't able to make the deal at $150, but didn't spend much more than that. I don't see stuff this old very often around here, especially good old boxes. But TBH I haven't been in a position to go to a yard sale since we had kids, it feels like. My wife mentioned that we needed a new hose and...
