Guess I am going to have to get a replacement disc and cord for my camera so I can load some pictures.......

I have one of those "Rocketeer" compressors you were talking about Red Leader. Took me about 6 months to find it and when the guy shipped it he used virtually no packing and put it in a box too small so part of the base casting broke. I am using it with a 2 horse briggs for my vintage shop truck.

This last sunday I found a later version of the roll around,(and I did not get it for free either),that has the crown logo on the bottom drawer of to one side. Not centered like the older ones.

Pulled it out of a trash pile...........GEEEEZ!!! Looked for two years to find my lower like that. Have a 7 drawer machinist box on it that I use at work. What a find!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a question for anyone that can help. I am looking for any info on the 1950's Craftsman wall cabinets.(there is a picture of the mechanics version on page 79 of this thread) How many different versions did they make? I have 2 different versions.One like on page 79 and one that has a place...

Found it last night. Great article! Congrats once again.

Went and tried to find it this weekend. Epic fail. Wood Magazine? Which issue?

Re: ~ Plomb tool picture thread - show your stuff! WOW!!!!!!!!! Nice stuff all of you. I have a top box like yours jwitt. Closest paint I could find is Rust-oleum MultiColor Textured 223526 Deep Forest. You guys have some way cool stuff.

Cool set up. Dont be embarassed by your "before" pictures. Years ago I worked for a company called Flight Systems Inc. that did model and sounding rockets. The company was opperated out of a 2+ car garage that was about that cluttered and packed. We put out a ton of stuff out of such a humble...

Your shop is really shaping up.

Is the MV a 750 or a 1000?

I always try to hit the Adrian tractor show, that and the fall Missouri River Valley in Boonville. Your old Deere looks pretty nice.Need a little giant trip hammer to run off the flat belt drive of your B.

As far as the heat goes, my forge is a spring/fall tool. Did not know they had a Blacksmith club in Adrian. Your shop is looking good so far.

Got the new Rod an Kulture. Great write up. Your Garage is such a great back drop for the lay out. Even the wife was waaay impressed.

I am sure you know this but make sure if you have moved it a lot or especially layed it over, make sure it sits in the upright position for a while to let oil run back down. We had a couple old latch handle Philcos from 40's that would gurgle a bit but they had done that for the 20 some years...

30 years ago they were common. Our high school had those in 70's. It's like how do you get the paint off those big saw mill blades?????????? A good piece of hickery or white oak...............

"Except that it's not really a 'problem' as it was designed that way. The plane heats up so much the fit was intentionally loose so it is tight when at working height and speed. It's one of those things that amazes me as a feat of engineering. Like having both sides of a bridge meet in the...

As long as you like it is whats important.

"Thanks guys, I am both humbled and amazed at your kind and encouraging words. Humbled because I feel like I don't deserve them and amazed because if anyone saw the garage 95% of the time, I'm sure they'd be horrified.........." And like all of us have a perfect shop all the time????????? Mine...

Thanks for the info. Your 20" scroll saw looks great. Hardly ever see all the bright work in that good of shape.
