It's all about what works for each of us individually. As mentioned above, I prefer to have as much covered storage as possible to keep dust and everything else that's flying around off my stuff - makes cleanup a lot easier. My cabinets are on wheels so they have a built in toe-kick. Since I...

I have an older one of these. http://www.mactools.com/ShopOnline/Product/tabid/120/productid/319257/variantid/310016/Default.aspx MAC M6S

Thanks. Pretty much just 1 X pine and 2 X framing. I like the SS tops a lot, they can take a beating and you can get really good deals on used stuff. A little Flitz polish will take out any stains.

Looks nice! Here's one that I built. Only stained it although I'll probably paint it. For the top I went to a used restaurant supply place and bought a couple of 6' stainless steel prep tables. Work great as tops and can be used stand-alone as well.

I've used this one, pretty easy and free http://cbstructures.icovia.com/icovia.aspx

This was from the hot deals thread a few weeks ago. From that deal maybe?

My older Matco pro swings are US. If you don't need new, they're pretty available, and you can usually get "like new" sets

Re: What did you do to your garage today? Did some paint correction on my C6

I think they should pull an Oprah - everybody in the thread gets a set :lol_hitti

Couldn't agree more. 1/2 the stuff on there can be purchased new for much less that the BIN, the rest is overpriced :lol: Once in awhile a good deal, but few are far between.

Chamberlain Wisper Drive (3/4 HP) with battery backup - works great, has to pull up a 16' door with hurricane bracing.

I got this Whia 12 pc set (30297) recently, good quality and nice selection. Was around $55 :thumbup: For socket rails, I like the Ernst locking ones.

We have a couple of the Makita LCT300W sets. My wife's a GC and beats the ^%$^ out of them. No problems. Good weight to power ratio.

Me too

I have the Milwaukee and have been disappointed with it for sure. Not a lot of power and short battery life. OK for real light duty stuff, but other than that not impressed. Use if mostly for electrical as well. Guess I'll take a look at the Mikita.

I'm in. Info alone has been worth it :thumbup:

Have 2 Wright combo wrench sets. First class :thumbup:

I've been using these from HD for a year or so (they come in a couple of different sizes). They work out pretty well, haven't had a crash yet (they're screwed into the bottom plates of the trusses).

Well, last year I sold my '70s SO collection I had when I was an A&P back the early 70s. Figured I wouldn't be doing much wrenching so didn't need the stuff. Low and behold, restoring a C3 Vette, so had to "re-stock". There's still some old SO, Bonney, Utica, etc. in the box though. Here's a...

Metalhead, The colored sockets are a beater set I got at HF. The compressor's OK, use to to run light air tools, tires and blow guns. Like the portability. Had it for a year or two and no problems so far. It does like to run!
