Seems like there is enough room above and to the rear of the new coil bucket to add gusseting or channel to strengthen the frame rails.

I prefer counter coiling/over-under coiling

Have you thought of using electrolysis and a pickling bath on the inside of the tank?

For a pencil I prefer the OHTO Super Promecha Drafting Pencil in 0.7 mm (thanks Gregor)

I used a suspended ceiling in my last metal studded build. A laser level to sight the metal track on the stud as you did, and then begin building the metal grid to span from side to side. Wire supports the grid off of the ceiling joists (in my case, off of the concrete ceiling).

This is something to think about. On this device the pneumatic tire is the entire suspension. Replacing with solid tires will increase the stress on the frame and require beefing up the joints or the joints will fail.

Thank God :needpics:

Alright fellas, who's near Georgia to help him finish the stripe? This is gonna bug me! :lol_hitti

Probably not the issue you are having here but for others, make sure you dust off the walls prior to painting. The drywall compound dust will make it hard for the paint to stick. Just a quick brush with a broom can help.

Is there usable space under the tooling holders or are they open on the bottom? Are the tops of the trays permanently affixed?

I’ve had the best luck just using a sawzall and a long metal cutting blade. It will just slice through the nails and I’ll leave the nails in as accents.

Maybe I'm not thinking enough, but couldn't you just use the lightweight bracket and keep a couple of 4x4s on hand when you want to hold up an engine block?

Too cool!

Had a free weekend day and got some cleanup done in the garage. The majority of the house projects are down so we can discard some of the unused materials. The bike rack on the side doesn’t provide enough room to park the cars in together so the bikes have been put on the back porch. This will...

Glad to see you back!
