    Hey fellas, I have an AC unit in my crawlspace. It sends its condensate into a little condensate pump, which pumps it across the crawlspace into my sump pump in the corner. The sump pump is there to pump out water that the french drain around the perimeter of the foundation catches. I've...

    New Record 75 Vise

    I had always been intrigued by the design of the Record 75 workshop vise (vice) and hoped I'd run across one someday. Well, that day came when a basically untouched specimen showed up for sale... on the opposite coast of the US! Fortunately there are good people in this world who understand vise...

    Replacement Craftsman 2.5" DP vise jaws - interest?

    Hey folks, A good friend of mine who is a machinist was kind enough to make some beautiful jaw inserts for my Craftsman drill press vise with 2.5" jaws. I realize that this is a fairly ubiquitous vise amongst the vintage tool community so I wanted to check if others on the board would be...

    Custom push-pull cables

    Craftsman Mandrel - Wire Wheel

    I love my wire-wheel equipped Block Grinder but sometimes 3450 rpm is just a little too much... with a 6" wheel the surface speed of the wheel is about 60mph (assuming I did the math right). I found this nifty Craftsman 1/2" mandrel. Popped some new bearings in it and attached it to my...

    Do I have a problem (with my Stanley Screwdrivers)?

    Always had a thing for the Stanley Workmaster screwdrivers. The big handles are nice to use and they're decent quality overall with a nifty vintage look. I have a half dozen that are on the pegboard at all times. As I find them I squirrel them away but I didn't realize how big my collection had...

    XY Table from "Ralmike's"?

    Hey guys, A local member directed me to this excellent XY table which I picked up this past weekend. It's got a 9x9" footprint and easily weighs over 75 pounds. The best I can figure it's probably from the early 70's and probably USA made. I put it right to work (making slow speed pulleys, of...
