    Good Chainsaw?

    Id suggest a STIHL ms260pro they are awsome. Put an 18" bar on it. A great saw for a serious homeowner or light commercial use. Its a light saw with PLENTY of power, a bit pricey...$500-$600 I think, but you'll only buy it once in your life. As far as the husky/stihl debate goes I like...

    Century 140 MIG Welder Kit

    I have a Handler 140 and like it, but my brother inlaw has the miller version, it has infanite settings for heat where as my Hobart only has 4 settings. The Miller can be fine tuned for nicer welds. Unfortunatly there alot more $$$, just thought I'd add my 2cents. Best of Luck!

    Floor Jacks: Revisited

    Unfortunetly I dont, Id like to think it was no more than $30-35..its just o-rings, coil springs, and a seal. As far as finding it cheaper I wasnt able to but to be honest I didnt search too hard. Its not the crappy style with the gear (that tightens or loosens the valve)on the jack end of...

    Floor Jacks: Revisited

    Go to your nearest NAPA store they usually have a 3.5 ton jack on sale for 300, its made in china but re-buildable thru NAPA (they can get the kits). I got one and its great, I also got a rebuild kit after I bought it so I had one in case they changed suppliers down the road.

    Base for Toolbox

    Get some 2x2 stainless square tube, make a base to box dimensions then bolt the box to it. Any other material would look cheesy with a stainless box
