glad Im not the only one whos felt this way. haha. The house is structurally sound, we're going through the plumbing and heating now, and hopefully will be done this weekend. Only had 2 piping issues so far. One of the 2 bathrooms is fully remodeled, I only want to repaint it as whomever painted...

Re: OT maybe...I need some words of wisedom guys Thanks guys. The house is structurally sound, and already in process. Like i said, my father is in the building trade, one of my brothers is a landscaper, the other is a heating guy. I build cars and bikes on the side after my full time fab job...

Ok guys, I lurk a ton, but I rarely post. I just bought my first home. Its an updated 1891 Colonial sitting on 1.25 acres of land. I now own a shop, a barn and a 2 car garage that are all on the property. Everything needs work, and Ive started on the house. Tearing up carpets, cleaning etc, all...

just got this from my 71 year old neighbor.Its the clock he "chased for over 30 years" as a machinist...It doesnt work, tried a few things already (oiled gears, cord, tapping etc... any ideas? Its going in my new shop as soon as I get organized

http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=130730 the link to mine..Came out of the INDY area, did time at Godspeed and I bought it from Thom. Its currently being used at my full time job since I dont have a shop of my own currently, but it will be modified to use as a chassis table...

my brother said the same thing. haha It made more sense to flip it and put the top plate on the trailer deck...

which photo? haha if its the second one, then you're looking at the bench upside down....and yes, it has a bow, that will be removed when I modify it. The top plate isn't perfect, but its close thats actually similar to what my intents are...You're looking at my chassis table to build my cars...

KEEP THAT OLD STAND!!! I see other purposes for it haha, and whos machine is the new one?

Im laughing my *** off reading some of these replies...and to answer some questions...To initially move it, we used a small fork lift to pick it up just enough to put tubing under it...then we maneuvered it out the shop..Once outside, a rollback unsuccessfully attempted to lift it, I thought he...

If it was ground, there is no evidence left that it was...All the work I plan to do on it doesnt require it...I level and square everything at ride height. The 2 floors it has been on recently are nothing special. It helps that the bottom is "framed" to distribute the weight

thanks guys...Its way overkill..haha BUT i couldnt beat the price, and even with all the hassle and trips, Im into it less the the price of the top plate through my supplier...Had to bring in some heavy artillery to load her

Dont have any photos as its walled up in storage, BUT once I get settled, I cant wait to empty my whole box out, clean and organize everything once and for all, She really needs a good coat of wax...Havent done that in ages...

So, I dont get around these parts much, but I do lurk here and there...Long story short, Since I left the Hot rod game professionally, Ive been storing my life, buying here and there in hopes to establish my own shop...Nothing for the public, just my toy box...Ive been keeping an eye out for a...

my goal for my "shop" is to have only what Im building in the determined "fab" area...The garage is just for car and bike storage..a clean room separate from the dirty side if you will. All the non car/bike stuff goes elsewhere.... and no im not dreaming, I just missed out on a house with a...

i decided i want mainly vintage stuff in my house and vintage tools in my "shop"..so thanks guys...thanks alot, now I have something else to add to the list...

THANKS RYAN...now i need one.....Kev..you ****. hahahaha

run a small stringer between 2 of the legs..This way all your clamps are in one location (i hate searching for clamps) . Some of the guys i work with have made small shelves under their benches for misc blocking materials for fixturing (you know, that piece of 1 by2 tube to hold your hand while...
