Yeah It's pretty crazy. I've been in it for about 7 years now and things have changed a ton just in that short time. It can be very high pressure at times. We are constantly challenged to better ourselves as a maintenance organization and that keeps us plenty busy even when we're not fixing...

I've got one and need to mount it up soon. I'm still wiring and haven't got any insulation up yet so still just open studs. Ideas?

I'm right handed but mine's going on the left front corner because that's where I'll have more open space to clamp down large objects. I'd probably put it on the right if the beer fridge wasn't tight against the right side of the bench.

That's So AWESOME! I work in a cleanroom for a semiconductor manufacturer as an equipment technician. No pics because everything is proprietary and I'd like to keep my job for awhile but you can google image "semiconductor fab" and pretty much get the idea. Cool environment though...

OK two grounding rods hooked in series 6 feet apart. Is there a certain type of wire I should be using? The bare stranded copper stuff ok?

Awesome! Just Awesome!:drool:

I also pulled or pushed (can't remember how I ended up doing it) a rented core plug aerator up two ramps into the back of my truck last summer. I was easily a couple hundred pounds. Probably a bit unsafe for me, my truck, and the aerator but I got it done without incident.

So nice! :drool:

Cell rings when my hands are covered in grease or oil.

Running out of beer.

I'm not not worried about the structural integrity of the wall at all. Most of the blocks are intact and some actually look really good for thier age. I'm not sure what would have caused only a few of them to crumble other than poor block quality. Anyway, I was also thinking patching would be...
