    Toilet or not.. in shop...

    When I built my 30x60 garage last year I thought the 150ft walk to the house would not be a big deal. Well, it is. As I get older I go more often and the walk back to the house is getting real old!

    Diy file handle suggestions? What am I doing wrong?

    lot of great ideas. just make sure you always have a handle on a file. I have seen some nasty accidents over the years from guys in too much of a hurry to put a handle on the file when filing on a lathe or even hand filing.:sad:
