I'm sure that it works fine as it is, but I'd think about replacing that light switch with a motor-rated one. Cheers! CHandos

The hour meter is very slick. Can you post a closeup? Cheers! Chandos

Prices vary wildly from region to region, so it's tough to nail down an exact value (including what it's worth to you. The fact that he doesn't show the whole table leads me to think that it might be marred by an "arc of shame," but simply looking at it will confirm or deny this. If the...

Re: Finally have lights!!! Where'd you find the bottom lamp? I like it a lot.

"This guy is taking bids on this one and is currently at $450 for this 1947 Delta. with in 20min of it posting. http://tulsa.craigslist.org/tls/3482155792.html" That Delta looks like it's been restored to a fare thee well. The quill requires special bearings, and if these and the motor...

Very Nice! Got my floor the other day. It'll be a couple of weeks before I can get to it. This doesn't make the wait easier. Cheers! Chandos

Water and stuff does drain through the "free form" style tile. I haven't yet received my order, but I planned for some drainage (around the entryways, for instance) using this style tile; my slab is subject to periodic soaking, and I wanted to be able to dry it out by providing some...

Superb job, a real inspiration! I've got an old wood-working bench that requires the same treatment. I've already required the tung oil. Your finish is gorgeous. Any tips? Chandos

Plastic kitty 40# litter bin with lid and handle. Keeps a bunch of them weatherproof and handy. Usually just throw the bucket in the truck if I think I'll need 'em.

Yeah, the truck's my "arn" hauler and the fruit of too many years on the OWWM. If you can't bring it home, then you can't take it apart and (ideally) put it back together again. I love to think about how much these boards sustain the recycle/repurposed community. Little goes to waste and we...

A cargo of 4 Vidmar cabinets on the trailer and a long-bed full of drawers as of this AM. I brought them home last night. I'd never heard of Lista or Vidmar before I joined this site, but was intrigued by what I read. I bid on a set of 9 drawer Listas at a local military base (through...

Thanks, all. The open-end torque application I can see actually using now and then. Chandos

I'm going to ask a really dumb-*** question, but I'm beyond embarrassment. What to you use these things for? Other than working in my '77 F-150, nearly all my wrenching is related to OWWM. Many thanks! CHandos

Wow! You get a shirt, too? XL here; I'm tall, but not round. Can't wait to get the floor; my Christmas project. See what happens when you post in open forum? Cheers! Chandos

Around here that's the starting CL price; they seem to fall in the $500-$700 range depending on condition and included tooling. It's on my lust list, but down in the queue.

Re: what did you do in your garage today? How are you going to handle draining the buried line? I ask because I confront a buried air line of about 30', and I haven't figure out a way to get the water out if it that satisfies me. CHeers! CHandos

I've had the Rockwell for a couple of years. Got a great deal on the kit from eBay or Amazon, can't recall which. It's a robust, powerful tool. I haven't noticed the noise especially, but I generally wear hearing protection. Inexpensive blades are available from HF, but I think that these are...

Re: what did you do in your garage today? Installed a hitch on the '77 F150; going to pick up four Lista cabinets on Monday--for the garage/shop. Never actually put a vehicle into the shop outbuilding, so technically I suppose that it's not a garage.

Ordered my floor today, too. I must say, based on a lot of email with Jennifer and a few samples, that this company has been very pleasant to work with. I wait until the floor is down to make any other judgments, but my expectations are high. I must just be a lazy sod, but their floor planner...

Yup, blind as a bat, that's me. C
