    Need help w/ Custom Wrench Door Handles

    I came up with an idea using wrenches for handles for my shop wall cabinet. My idea seemed simple: get 2 wrenches and have some bolts welded on the back, then attach to the doors. I can't weld, so I sent the wrenches and bolts with my best bud who knows a welder. $20 later and this is what I...

    Race Deck vs Floor Junkies

    I'm in the final stages of selecting a tile floor for my shop. I've got it narrowed down to Race Deck and Floor Junkies. Both tiles are 12"x12"x12"x0.5" and Made in USA. The underside rib structure is designed differently but they both provide good support. I put both tiles on the floor and...

    Shop Floor Design Help Needed

    I think I'm finally ready to order the floor tiles, but I want some GJ input before I pull the trigger. Basically my shop is a standard double-car garage. No vehicle or lawn equipment storage.

    Motorcycle Tool Kit

    I've been working on this kit since we're planning a 3000mi trip in the fall. I think I'm on the right path. Volume & weight are serious considerations, along with functionality and durability. The tools will be split between two side panniers. The knife, well, that's another story :p

    Just added these Wilde Scrapers to my chest. They are replacing the Cman scraper that finally broke down after 20 odd years. The top scraper is 1-1/2" wide, while the bottom scraper is 1" wide. The finish is excellent with nice, sharp edge on the business end. I also picked up a set of Pry...

    Wilde Pliers

    I saw these small 4-1/2" pliers on Epstien's site and thought they quite cool and ordered a couple of pairs. The fit and finish is excellent. The chrome is very smooth with no jagged or burred areas. Small enough to stash on the bikes.
