    Let's see your toolbox.

    Here are my 2 Craftsman toolboxes. 40" side by side. Never did like reaching up into top cabinets. Here's a shot of my old "tool cabinet" I had while I was still figuring out my shop layout. I stored power tools etc in it. Stainless unit on the right. It's an old commercial Fridge/ Freezer unit...

    Home Depot Commercial Fans Installed

    Those HD fans have plastic blades which allow for mounting at 7'. No kidding!!! I just installed 2 of them in my shop- 24'x42'x12' ceilings. The fans are mounted in the peak at about 20'+. I ditched the standard 4sp controllers that came with them in favor of some Leviton 3sp controllers from...

    Metal Cabinet Paint

    I'll agree with PA.. I just painted a few of my display cabinets with the Hammerite Rust Encapsulator. (Camera phone shots so the color is not correct) It's more expensive than the standard Hammerite but they didn't have the green color I wanted (Mid-Green) in the standard Hammerite. I thinned...

    I just rewired ALL of the original electrical that was in my pole barn when I bought it 7 years ago.

    vintage gas pump pics

    I got this from a friend for $20. It's a Gilbarco (forgot the model#) Someone told me it's a farm pump not for resale use. I think I'm going to try to make a air/water cabinet out of it for the front of my shop. I'll hot tank the cabinet, take out the dents & Have it powder coated and put some...

    Attic Drop Down Stairs

    2 reasons: The existing stairs that were in place when I moved in were 1/2-assed at best. The rise/run was totally wrong which made for an interesting/dangerous climb. The pulldown gave me back quite a bit of wall space that I needed. I only use the loft for storage so it's fine. Having the...

    Attic Drop Down Stairs

    I too purchased a Louisville Aluminum 300# ladder. Installation was a snap. Only thing I have a problem with is its pretty narrow. So things I used to be able to store in the loft don't fit anymore and vice versa. Example: I am storing a friends bench seat from an Excursion for a project of...

    Child Safety in the Shop

    I try to keep my kids away form the TV set if at all possible. We have a movie night on Friday nights but most of the other time we spend in the shop or doing things "with" the kids. I grew up with too many kids whose parents plopped them in front of the TV. I don't want to do that to my kids. I...
