Rotten Leonard's drill jig is the way to go especially if you're drilling 16 axles! It's proven itself over the years in the hot rod community.

Go to Hobby Lobby (you have one in Columbia) they have all kinds of stuff you can use. You can get a paint pen in a contrasting color. They also have swabs for painting raised surfaces, kinda like a Q-tip but much firmer.

I've got a Milwaukee M12 2403-22. Great drill but the chuck keeps loosening up and won't hold a bit or driver for any length of time. Any recommendations on a new chuck? A part # would be great!

I use Diablos and get 'em at Home Depot. $3 and change. I removed the guard long ago and now I buy 6" cutoff wheels for basically the same price as the 4.5's.

I know the older Columbians are quality pieces but I'm unsure of this beast.... It's a 5" and they're asking $100..... https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/tls/d/concord-5in-columbian-swivel-head-bench/7091234512.html Noticing the misplaced 'U' in the name and the whole vise just looks a...

I had it installed about 12 years ago and it works great! I've since painted the house a different color and I'm having a new roof installed next week. The new shingles are a charcoal color while the old ones are more red. Hence, the red color of the Gutter Helmet. I'd like to change the...

I have a Hobart Ironman 210 and love it! I've had it about 10 years and use it a lot. Built the frame and lots more on my roadster. A few years back I did have to replace the contactor and range switch but it's been fine ever since. Right now I'm using it everyday installing floorpans in my...

Sounds like your woodworking skills are minimal. No offense! Check your local Craigslist under 'services' and type in 'handyman'. I'm sure there're guys in your area that can bang that out for you cheap. Just stand there and watch 'em as they do it.

Just the standard drivetrain outta my '93 Mustang donor car. ECU, fuel injection and all.

'54 Ford Customline. Right now I'm doing rusty floorboard replacement. Soon to be powered by 5.0/AOD combo.

Yep, over the years I've had some close calls with engine stands. No more trying to spin them by hand. Didn't want to spend $200 on a rotator stand so I made my own for cheap...... https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=433569

Sorry for the hijack but, I've got a Snappy top and bottom box from the '50s that I've been meaning to restore. Is it still possible to purchase the friction slides for a box that old?

What he said^^^^ I replaced the motor on my IR 5hp 80gal compressor last year. The original actually lasted for 12 years. Paid $250 for a decent one off fleabay. The easiest route would probably be to just replace the motor.

1" galvy pipe slid through 3" wide steel plate and bolted with through bolts to ceiling joists. It ain't goin' anywhere. It's mounted in the garage. Whenever we have parties, all the guys seem to migrate to the garage!

This'll work. And you'll save $185! https://kansascity.craigslist.org/tls/d/farley-vtg-craftsman-metal-toolbox-tray/7021711452.html

I use this. About $100. Its in the 20's outside right now. Propane is $20 a bottle and I only use 3/4 of a bottle to get me through the winter months. I run it for 10 minutes to get the garage up to temp (80*) then shut it off for an hour or until it starts getting cold again. Of course, my...

The best there is.....hands down!

Kinda on the same theme, John Travolta's house.....

Confirmation! I'll stay far, far away. Thanks everyone!
