Yukon cabinets from HF, mounted on solid wood stands

Here's what I did, homeade cart for a Menards welding table and spot to mount welder and tank. Made a canvas cover for the welder, tucks under a wall cabinet when not in use.

Maybe $3,500 for those parts. The rest is contractor markup/labor

It is not that hard to install a new system if you have good mechanical skills and a few specialty tools. Several places sell complete systems on line. Here’s one I have had great experience with: https://heatandcooldirect.com/ They show a new 5 ton R410 system for $4,500...

First thing I ever sewed, 18 oz canvas cover for a new lathe

Thanks! I built the drawers for the Menards welding table, see https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/mastercraft-welding-table-at-menards.431921/ Base is built with height adjusting legs, not casters. It remains in place and leveled Many projects in mind for the lathe, it adds...

Thanks fellas! Just got one of these, I see more canvas projects ahead https://sailrite.com/shop/sewing-machines/portable-machines/ultrafeed-ls

After setting up a new lathe in the garage, I looked for a suitable cover to protect it from dust and condensation. Couldn't find what I was looking for, so I made one with 18 oz cotton duck from Sailrite. Key to this project was our LaPorte County, IN library and their awesome Makerspace...

Ended up with a new Grizzly G0602 10x22 lathe, table setup works great

Like many others here, I've always wanted a lathe to expand my skills to metalworking and make stuff. I looked at a lot of used equipment on C/L and eBay, lot's of junk out there. I don't want the hassle of rebuilding something old and find that it is worn out after investing time and money...

Thanks! Cart base is made from 1x3 pine, 1/2" plywood, and 4x4 Douglas Fir post. Coating is a clear epoxy pour over latex paint on the wood. Drawers have a poured epoxy bottom for durability. I used these feet to keep the posts off of the concrete floor and enable leveling...

I recently installed a pair of HF Yukon cabinets on a solid base, as well as Suncast Platinum Wall and Tall storage cabinets. Very happy with this setup. Picture shows the Yukon cabinets tied in with some old kitchen cabinets from our house remodel. These Suncast cabinets...

Cool stuff!

I have sprayed ~ 10 gallons of Valspar Duramax latex paint with my Harbor Freight 38308 HVLP gun for our boat and other items. Always using the stock tip that it came with. I use this spray mix with Floetrol, great results as shown on our boat.

Timely thread for me, I’ve been looking for something like this for my table saw and drill press. Both now have a mobile base with the PM-1100 and 3/4” MDO. On the stationary peg, put the locknut under the metal ear, more bearing surface for the load instead of thin threads.

Not sure if I have drained my vertical 60 gallon Sanborn compressor more than a few times over the past 20 years. Went to drain it the other day and nothing would come out. Found this mung on the bottom, almost like mud. All cleaned out and a 1/4" street L with ball valve installed now, I...
