I am in need of 1 or more cans of HAMMERITE Rust High Gloss Dark Blue 12 Oz. Hammered Finish Spray Paint #41125. No stores in Georgia carry it and based on my google-fu it is still available in some stores but nothing remotely close to me. I am happy to pay for the paint and the shipping, just...

This Weekend I picked up this 1951 Craftsman King Seeley 15.5” King Seeley floor standing 100 series drill press. The table is in rough shape, but I have a plan for that. These are the before pics. Issues I have found so far. Apparently 1952 and 1953 were not the only machines shipped...

Since I began producing videos of my rebuilds I have been negligent in posting here on the forum. Late last year I was asked to rebuild this Craftsman Emerson Gen 4.5 Commercial Drill Press by a local and fellow GJ member. This drill press was very unique for several reasons. First, it was...

Hello everyone, I am currently working on restoring a Craftsman 3-wheel band saw. I can find SFPM calculators for 2-wheel band saws, but I am uncertain how to calculate for a 3-wheel band saw. Does anyone have a method to modify the 2-wheel conversion or know of a 3-wheel calculator out there...

Now that I have completed the Craftsman King Seeley 150 rebuild video series on my YouTube channel, my next series will be about the Craftsman Emerson Drill Press line. I will be rebuilding this Generation 2 drill press. Once the videos go live, I will post a link. In the meantime, here are...

Back in Stock... I had another batch of these springs produced. It cost me quite a bit to have them produced and since I only purchased a limited quantity, the price is what it is. Each spring is $38.00 and shipping is a flat rate of $12.00 for up to 10 springs to CONUS. See details below...

Please disregard / delete. I have spoken to FrankLee and understand why the thread was locked.

For anyone who has been on GJ for more than a few weeks, you have probably heard or seen these. For me, it has become an obsession. The art deco look and level of design and craftsmanship has made these my go to shop tools. Here some illustrations of these tools from various tool catalogs...

This weekend I was gifted this grinder up from a fellow forum member. This is a very early (pre 1940) triple duty, ball bearing grinder that came out of machinery shop. It was saved from the trash and offered to me. Thank God, it was saved, it still ran perfectly before the power cables were cut...

Back in October 2021 I purchased a Craftsman 113.23802C 12” x 37” Wood Lathe off FBMP. I did not really want the lathe and only purchased it because the previous owner had the pedestal stand with it. This lathe was never mounted to this stand and I actually did have a need for wood lathe...

Sorry for the rant but I am so disappointed with the current offerings by Craftsman. Last week I decided now (with all the Christmas sales) would be a good time to grab some additional tools for my garage. I have a fairly large set of Craftsman hand tools in my workshop but I don’t like going...

Back in July 2020, I was seeking information for rebuilding a Craftsman Emerson Gen4 113 15.5” Drill Press. I quickly found FrankLee’s Classic Craftsman Drill Press and Garage Journal. This discovery led to my desire to acquire one of these Classic Craftsman Drill Presses and I have now rebuilt...

This weekend I attended an estate sale and picked up another classic Craftsman pedestal mounted power tool. I paid $100.00 for the saw and given how rare the pedestal tools are, I had to grab it. I am not a big fan of scroll saws and jig saws. I prefer band saws but these saws do have their uses...
