Lol, me too ! I don’t prefer pneumatic tools but would be interested in occasionally painting

The mustang was the first car I worked on in my garage. We scrambled to get it ready for ATCO on Black Friday

The part that bothers me is that Milwaukee made ‘the Best’ power tools and made them in America. They definitely made a profit for the hard work they put in them. They then used the money and invested it overseas. Seems misplaced to me.

I had a last minute call to go out of town, not enough time to plan for shipping, and checked 2 tool boxes in as luggage. Lol

Not knowing the history timeline, AC wasn't available at that time ? So that would make it a DC to DC generator ? They are also 2 pole or flat head motors/generators. I've seen more modern, 1930's, versions that ran on trollie power, but they were 4 pole.

Have you guys seen the newer style hole saws with carbide tips ? I drillled holes in my brick for both a hose bib and my 1 1/2 sump discharge and it worked great, clean hole.

An impact gun with that chuck becomes a great taping gun. Mikita has a chuck for a 1/4" drive impact gun that sells in Home Depot. I would like to get a chuck for a 1/2" impact.

I just got the Maglight XL50. Led and made in USA.

Goodyear hoses are made in the USA

Today the humidity went down so when I returned from work I couldn't see anything was wrong with it unless you stand directly over the bad spots. I am going to have to wait until I can get some heat in the floor before i can finish it, so it will need scuffing. Maybe I can get some of it out...

Yes, D.C.

Anyone know of a good garage/mechanics supply house in the Washington metropolitan area? I prefer to buy local.

I can see your point about the pump up dollies. I do like the 'Auto Dolly' for the fact it's American made.

The floor has dried but its still noticeable. It almost seems the blueing is nearer where I used the fans to help the drying. It looks much better today though!

It's dusk and it still has not dried. Parts of the floor look a little better, possibly because it has dried? Time will tell. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice. I was hoping to be done - epoxy and urethane. I'll just have to reevaluate.
