+1 on P-touch labels on 1/2" TZ tape, on Akrobins.

Re: Nut & Bolt Storage Side door to the garage is only about 12" from the back wall, so I had a sort of dead space behind it. Decided to use it for small pieces storage. 4 Akro Mils 30636's (sprayed safety blue to match my other cabinets), 72 30220's, 24 30230's, and 12 30224's. Left some...

Thanks to everyone in this thread for the ideas about Maxjax installs, I have finally started using mine after finishing (more or less) a house and garage remodel. Since the garage was open to the studs, I took the liberty of running a 10' length of 2" ABS pipe with large radius 90o bends on...

I ended up buying a Sunex 8300GA geared stand about 2 years ago in order to be able to rotate a bunch of very top-heavy 32V Porsche 928 motors. Read too many scary stories about stands almost tipping over when the engine's 90o on its side. Works like a champ.

Followup: So the stock arbor for a 91214 is removable, I used a #2 drill drift and it popped out easily. Getting the chuck off the arbor was a bear- had to use a gear puller. I pressed the Rohm chuck on the arbor with a bigger puller and then tapped the arbor back into place. RESULT: Huge...

Thanks for all the great info (and the kind offer, Bob), I appreciate it. For now I will pull the chuck and check the taper. I have a dial gauge and can measure the runout on the spindle, arbor and chuck to see why the chuck is wobbly. Will report back when I get a chance to play with it.

I am tempted by this Rohm chuck (http://www.use-enco.com/CGI/INSRIT?PMAKA=SK240-3043&PMPANO=0474210&PMKANO=205&PMKBNO=1880&PMPAGE=51&PARTPG=INLMPI) but the specs say J33 mount. In Enco's dropdown menu for chuck mounts they do differentiate between J33 and 33JT. [Newb mode]Is there a difference...

Thanks for the input! No screw up in the base of the chuck. Just a little dimple in the middle which I guess would be the center of the arbor when it was mfd.

Apologies in advance for a total novice question. About a year ago I bought a craftsman 12" drill press, model 21914 (AKA 315.214140). It was a floor model (perhaps a return- missing the chuck key, safety button, and several other things) but it was $129 and I got all the missing parts free...

M'kay: ( I hope this isn't a total hijack or result in an attention ***** stamp :) Craftsman tools are in both lower pics! ) When in one piece: When not in one piece:

It's a Porsche 928 block. Currently at 5 liters, on its way to Wisconsin to become 6.5L.

Dunno about craftsmanoholic but all my chests and cabinets are Craftsman as are almost all my main toolsets. Here's the latest in its state of disarray:

I can guarantee that I have spilled more gasoline on the floor from California's stupid gas cans that would ever have been lost from my father's old 1960's style metal jerry cans. I think I'll have him add them to my side of the will....
