    Anybody try any stainless cleaners on the tops yet? Stainless appliance cleaner should be fine, I think? Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

    Planning my Multi-function Shop (Wood/Metal/Auto)

    One of my small wood/metal/maintenance shop solutions was something that just kind of showed up and is perfect, well, close. My Grandfather passed away about 7 years ago. My uncles have been cleaning up his workshop along with my Grandma. There was this old work table with 3” steel casters on...

    Planning my Multi-function Shop (Wood/Metal/Auto)

    That sounds good. We are kind of in the process to accomplish the same thing although our space is a little different. I have a one car garage attached to the house but no living space above it. I spent the better part of September digging holes trying to figure out the drainage around my yard...

    Which toolbox for work?

    Volume of storage and if you want a work surface, or area to mount a vise could also be a consideration. NAPA Real Deals quarterly catalogs (view on their website https://realdeals.napaecatalog.com/) have had some good deals on Homak RS Pro boxes both combos and cabinets with stainless work...

    Garage door animal barrier?

    Do you have a pic of how it is setup in use? Do those hooks sit on the track brackets or the holes in the track? Glad i stumbled upon this thread. Been thinking about this off and on all summer. Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

    Homak RS-Pro 72" Tool Box

    I can't say because my box is at home, but I had a 52" double bank, 22" deep Husky that was Canadian made with 100lb drawer slides, 5" casters, and butcher block top. That box was used in an industrial shop with rail tracks and each aisle of the plant had a ramp and usually a drain near the...

    Homak RS-Pro 72" Tool Box

    Still transitioning to the new box, been busy. I always use cleaning up and organizing as winter projects. Got to get impact sockets, and the smaller torx sets in this drawer and get the double out in a storage box. All the other drawers are still a wreck, but I said before I’d post pics. The...

    Homak RS-Pro 72" Tool Box

    Looks sweet! Thinking of getting the 54” to put new to my 72” as well. Thinking of making a frame and seeing if I can buy another set of swivel casters from Homak. Goin full diy epiq120. Would make it 5 banks 10.5’ long full length stainless top on 6 swivel casters, maybe 8 to play it safe...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    VA: BLO is a great idea! Thanks. KW: thanks for the info. It looks more like a Backus from the profile of the rail. I would still expect to see some type of markings on it. I’m wondering if Westinghouse made it on site. They had a foundry in the facility. Think it might be possible? Sent...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    I think I found the right thread for this. I picked it up from my Grandma’s house today from my late Grandfather’s workshop. He retired from Westinghouse Airbrake and it was formerly my great-grandfather’s workshop who was a blacksmith and craftsman. To me it looks like a railroad vise, making...

    Homak RS-Pro 72" Tool Box

    Snap On Epiq 84" boxes have 4 casters and Mac Maximizer triple banks got 4 casters; I don't really understand your logic? Where I work we got carts to move our product with 120,000lbs capacity that have 4 casters. If something was engineered for a certain weight capacity it is fine. I look at...

    Lets see your workbench

    Steel would hold up better. Make a thin sheet and use the wood as the core like all the stainless tops are on tool boxes. All depends on how heavy of items are to figure out how thick you want the metal top. Not sure how the aluminum would hold up with the plasma cutting and welding; good...
