Since my height is so limited I'm building a Trolley now. I'm making it as low profile as possible so it bolts directly do the small electric winch I'm using. Should have it done on Saturday, with any luck.

The jeep isn’t really a jeep…yet. It looks like one, but it is just a basket case project I picked up for about 40 cents on the dollar. The previous owner went big and bought one tons, 40’s, bead locks, lockers, 5.3 LS, 4:1 T-Case, fuel cell, LS swap radiator, wiring harness, fox coil overs, and...

I built it out of some old materials I had laying around.

Got the jib crane up. Just need to add the montitor and keyboard mount for the plasma table. Oh, and add a hoist. None too tall, but it clears my garage door tracks there. Still can load the table with it though.

Thanks! I’ve got prints if you want them?

Finished my Stanley organizer rack, and that pretty much brings us to the present. My next projects are to complete the hard piped air plumbing and build a jib crane. Finally about time to start working in the garage instead of on the garage!

Added a unit heater, which is still not plumbed... sourcing that double wall pipe kind of ***** if you're not a contractor. Also built a workbench and went full tilt **** retentive 3d printing some more goodies for storing stuff.

Added the rustoleum epoxy to the floor and started putting stuff back in! The feet I ordered from McMaster didn't hold up as well as I'd have liked. Good thing I special ordered the slip resistant ones... they were great and completely refunded my money, but I still have a plasma table slid...

I figured after having used it for a couple years and having ran all the 220 and 110 I needed within the garage, to the patio, and the shed it was about time to finish the interior. I wired it for surround sound, added an exhaust fan over the plasma table, and added power, data, and raceway...

Thanks! My weld table is 1” thick 4’ x 6’. Snagged it on craigslist for $300!

Then... I filled the shed with a bunch of stuff... and the garage... and used it like that for a couple years and had a couple kids. PS- You don't want me as your Secret Santa...

Sorry for the bad images. I was uploading from a waiting room while bored. What photo hosting website are most of you hosting on? These should be better. This is the high desert in Central Oregon. I'm glad I opted for the extra 200 amp panel in the garage: Then I knocked a hole in the...

Here is my garage progress so far. It’s never going to be “done”, but it’s to the point I don’t have to move too much stuff to do most projects. Garage is a 22x24 with a 14x20 third bay. Should have added more, and I wish it was a shop but wish in one hand… you know? Ceiling is JUST shy of 10...

I bought the Gearwrench set on sale from Amazon during cyber-Monday for $144, so keep an eye out if it goes on sale again. It's inadequate for use as a machinist, but for home/hobby use it is great. Also, the ratcheting handles are awesome...

Finally finished my Stanley Organizer…organizer.

Sounds like you already have lots of good advice but here is are my general thoughts on organization: 1. Throw away all garbage, anything that vaguely resembles garbage, or anything of little to no value. 2. Sell anything of any value that isn't hard to replace and gets used seldom. I call...

I source non-cabinet related parts and sheet metal components from Baldhead cabinets in my hometown for work. While I haven't used their cabinets professionally, their manufacturing facility and manufacturing practices are very good and they have been great to work with. The cabinets look...

On the bright side, I'm glad I'm not the only one who over thinks things. Good Luck!

Just finished mine.

I believe you are correct. This may be one of those scenarios where there are 3 different skus for the same part, made from 3 different manufacturers. My bench is almost done, I should have it put together by the end of this weekend so I'll report back if anything is amiss.
