    Basic entry level SCFM requirements, Body work

    At a minimum, I highly recommend getting a 2-stage. You will thank yourself for going with a 80 gallon tank as well.

    Test Light / Circuit Tester Recommendation needed.

    I am looking for a good Test Light / Circuit Tester for use on a boat. I am spending the winter rehabbing our tool kit and the ancient test light is pretty beat up and corroded. What would ideal is one that comes in a case to keep it from getting beat up in the tool bag. Any of you...

    What's on your tool buying list for 2015?

    Looking to buy a new boat this winter - trying to buy this one; a 46 Markley, single 575HP John Deere. I guess you could call it a tool - we use it to make money on the side.

    How did you learn your trade?

    Busted my *** out of high school for 2 years at a body shop - couldn't afford to move out of my parents house based on what I was making. Saw no future in it as a tech or as a bodyman as we were known in 1986. At 19 I joined the Navy. Retirement eligible at 39. Before I knew it I was an...

    Any feedback on Sunex Stubby Combo Wrenches?

    I am putting together a tool kit for the charter boat. Tools which would be kept on the boat and used for maintenance and emergencies. I am considering these SUNEX stubby wrenches but before I hit the Add-To-Cart button, I wanted to see if any of you had any experience with them. Thanks in...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    Not in the trades. Basically just stuff around the house and on the boat. Basic Craftsman boxes. Hand tools are about 60% Craftsman and 40% Snap-On. I don't really need Snap-On but I like having nice things and that includes tools. I am gradually replacing the CM with SO. I pretty well...

    Who has the coolest clock in their garage? Not Me! Ideas?

    1969 Budweiser Beer Light / Clock. Came out of a bar after who knows how many years. Smoke stained with a nice patina on it. I rewired it and ran a dedicated outlet so the cord isn't hanging.

    TV in Garage

    A 42" LCD on an articulating mount. It's the cheapest one Walmart had in that size. Garage is unheated most of the year and the humidity get fairly high in the summer here. So far, so good - on year 3 with it up. I also ran the Sony surround sound system out of our hold house. The surround...
