I'm actually looking to buy one because I live in a hurricane zone. They don't cost what a Honda does however, their customer service is known for being the best in the business.

I turned the goose neck around 180 and uses a ratchet strap to avoid flexing. The most I lifted was about 450lbs I used a board to go across the legs in the back to stack weights on. The last time I did this I was lifting HF 44" tool boxes into the workbench I'm building and just had my wife...

I was finally able to pick up the material for the top. This was a piece of surplus 5/8" plate 144"x34" that was discounted due to the surface rust. The piece my buddy was going to give me had to be used elsewhere.

I picked up some steel in the surplus area of my local steel yard to finish my workbench build. 12'x34""x5/8" thick I payed $289 for it. Here's a link to my build:https: //www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=408820

Nice I'd love a parts washer sounds like you'll have a good setup. Enjoy.

I'm using a Milwaukee dry cut circular saw. The cuts are unbelievable and the steel doesn't get hot at all. There is also a chop saw version. After a day of heavy grinding I'll do a quick sweep then I have a small cordless blower to get what the broom can't. Just be sure to wear a respirator or...

Told a co-worker (in general conversation) I wanted a 16 gallon drum to paint up and put vintage gas pump/oil stickers on for a trash can. He just walked in with a 16 gallon drum and gave it to me. I like that idea!

This morning I gave my old toolbox to my buddy Duese. He remodeled a bed room for his special needs son he had all his tools in a pile in the corner of his garage.

When I was fresh out of high school I landed a job as a plumber's apprentice and I started I met some really great guys that were doing well in there careers. As they would assign a task to me I didn't always have the tools needed to do what they asked. Every once in a while some journey man...
