Any favourites or avoid at all costs? Looking at Milwaukee, Dewalt or Makita so far but open. 95% farm equipment use, looking for portability over air.

Picked this up cheap tonight. About 24x32, top swivels 360 degrees although it's stiff. Good and sturdy, looks like WWII-50s vintage and the shelves/drawers have been cobbled on later. My first and probably best thought is to put a rubber mat on the top, build a lip on 3 sides, build some...

On the odd occasion when I can't get something in the shop my outdoor welding area is about 40' off a well-travelled road. I generally try to keep my back between the road and the flash, and for the most part I think it's far enough not to be a big risk, but what do you all do about the flash...

What are the most useful things in your shop that you just know your wife would toss after you die? For me, it's 1. The handful of 60cc syringes from the barn with various short lengths of tubing that I use alternately for lubing things that are hard to get at or sucking up small spills from...

Anybody got any nice, cheap (read "free") ideas for storing spare roller chain around the shop? I keep about 8-10 sizes on hand, up to 80H, both full rolls in boxes and also lots of short leftovers. Right now I have a piece of scrap flat bar nailed on some studs and just hang them over it, leave...
