    Show your new tool arrivals

    I guess I can't post a gif here. I'll attach it as a file and just say I ordered some Capri Tools stuff recently and really like the foam trays. I've kind of been on a Capri Tools kick lately and have been replacing some of the Craftsman/Kobalt/Husky stuff I had in my tool cart.

    Looking for a nice allen socket set SAE/Metric

    I highly recommend Capri Tools. I've actually got quite a bit of stuff from them including the Allen socket set (32 pc, not sure if there is another size) and it has all been pretty impressive, especially considering how affordable it is.

    Garage in northern Norway

    I'd rather have more heat than I need instead of less! That is a great find there. Congrats on the little one and glad to see you are back and keeping this thread updated. Every time I read it I am encouraged to try to do some type of upgrade to my house or garage. You do great work and your...

    Powerbuilt Pro Tech Ratchets?

    I have the fixed, and flex heads of this design from Powerbuilt. I'm thrilled with them. Taiwan made I believe, and can confirm 72 teeth. I've put them through their paces in the three or so months I've had them including braking some stuff on my 3/4 truck loose with the 1/2inch and a cheater...

    Powerbuilt Tools Black Friday Sale - 35% off plus free shipping

    That is what I was thinking -- my goals for Black Friday/Cyber Monday were that I wanted a complete set of Impact Sockets with trays for both 1/2 inch and 3/8 inch, along with one of the new Stubby 3/8 Impact Wrenches from Milwaukee. I was looking at Sunex, who make great tools but the price for...

    Powerbuilt Tools Black Friday Sale - 35% off plus free shipping

    Little late but thanks for the heads up on this. I had been looking into Powerbuilt tools for awhile and tried a few out before this deal. There isn't a lot out there on them for some reason. The tools I tried were pretty good so with this deal I picked up the 546 piece technician tool set for...

    My 28x32 Garage Build

    I'll get some good pictures next time I'm home in the daytime. A lot of progress has taken place, and I've started to move my stuff in out of the storage unit! We got lights in but it was dark by the time I got a chance to take a picture of everything, but at least you can see how bright it is...

    My 28x32 Garage Build

    Yeah, they actually just called a few minutes ago to let me know they are done prepping so it likely is too late for me to do much of anything. I bought 22 tons of 2b stone to fill the building with and level everything up to the skirt board. They are moving that all around today (I'm also...

    My 28x32 Garage Build

    That was the plan, I wanted to have space for my Sprint car, with work benches, etc. and my brother will also have a Micro Sprint in there as well. With the car on roller stands I can move it to the back and could pull in any of my cars to the front of either bay if I need to perform any type of...

    My 28x32 Garage Build

    and lastly... Despite my best efforts the site was still off 5 inches back to front according to the builder and you can tell just by looking at it now that the building is up (when I started leveling the site was off 5 inches front to back). I'm going to have to figure out what to do (whether...

    My 28x32 Garage Build

    Now for some pics of the site prep, this was the biggest relief of the build because once this was done I didn't have to do anything else and I could just let the professionals do everything!

    My 28x32 Garage Build

    These pictures are from the most miserable part (probably because it was done in PA, in December, and January) the concrete demo. Had I known how sturdy the concrete on the left side of the garage was I would of just incorporated it into the new concrete floor in the new garage. It was really...

    My 28x32 Garage Build

    Hey everyone! I have been a long time browser on here, but I rarely post. I've spent years reading everyone's garage build posts and being jealous and it is finally my chance to make a garage build post. I'm a little late as the structure is already up, BUT at least that means anyone interested...
