    Recommend some annular cutters

    If they have a Weldon shank I just throw 'em straight in an R8 collet, 3/4" typically. A holder will eat up a lot of Z space with no knee. I don't really have recos on brands, haven't used them extensively enough to have an opinion. Troll AWD for giggles, various random annulars are always...

    Milwaukee M12 FUEL 3" Compact Cut Off Tool

    Absolutely awesome for automotive and light fab. I use it under vehicles all the time to lop off bolts that are too long or just waiting to puncture my cranium. Fantastic for quick, SHORT cuts in sheetmetal and anymore its all I use to cut expanded steel, 1/2-13 or 3/4-9 True I only use 6.0...

    Wilton 400N Machinist Vise $330 on Amazon

    This particular model line has always been called the machinist. They are NOT suggesting it belongs on a mill table. But it is the vise you're most likely to find on a machinist's bench. It is, after all, a bench vise. $330 new for something of this quality is phenomenal

    Shop vac for metal chips

    You're just special While it is true that proper feed, speed and insert style/chipbreaker should mitigate this, if I'm just doing a couple quick cuts I don't take the time to adjust - GET THE METAL ON THE FLOOR and MOVE ON to the next project

    Asymetric lift and my F150

    That’s just called natural selection. I also use screw jacks to weight or unweight certain components but you've gotta be incredibly aware of what you're doing. If I ever manage to hurt or kill myself....I deserved it

    Shop vac for metal chips

    Yeah I run from chips with my M18 vac - guaranteed to clog the hose in short order. However I have "good" success with my 16gal shop vacuum. Basically you want the largest hose possible. Still, it's not foolproof. A smooth hose would help, BUT it also can't neckdown to a bottle neck at the...

    Asymetric lift and my F150

    I prefer screw jacks under the hitch. Just did this today on a 2010 Chevy full size van, primarily just because there were 2 guys climbing around in it while it was on the lift

    Quality small bandsaw

    Yeah I'd lean toward the SWAG setup myself Next might be a HF 4x6....do the tweaks to get it cutting true....and if you need vertical improve the table and/or completely remove the bow and design your own table.

    How to disable the lid lock on newer US General tool carts?

    Does he have a style that doesn't have the individual slide catch on each drawer? The "lock" should be solely for security when the lid is actually locked with a key. OP, maybe you could give us an item # so we at least know what we're talking about?
