Re: Your thoughts on using just 1/4" and 1/2" drive tools Abandon 3/8" drive? Yes Taiwan. Yes nice micro satin finish. I did a bunch of searching to find nice satin finish with knurling on a tight budget. I call em Hazet style on HF budget. Sent from my VTR-L09 using The Garage Journal mobile app

Re: Your thoughts on using just 1/4" and 1/2" drive tools Abandon 3/8" drive? Sorry not OEM. These are Draper Expert that I bought in the UK online and had shipped. I looked at the OEM stuff but by the time I would get the shipped to Canada it and added the size skips these worked out better...

Re: Your thoughts on using just 1/4" and 1/2" drive tools Abandon 3/8" drive? I recently bought all new metric sockets and decided to skip 3/8. Full sets of 1/4 and 1/2 in shallow and deep. I don't use a impact gun but if I did I likely would have gone all with GP Duo and skipped the 1/2 stuff...

Zip tie cutters from Tsunoda. Made in Japan. Flush cutting with a notch in the jaws for grasping the tie to pull it nice and tight. Sent from my VTR-L09 using The Garage Journal mobile app

I was going down this same route with ratchet t-handle and screwdriver handle but now have decided to go with a 1/4" swivel head ratchet and a quick connect bit holder.

If you plan to use the impact lots maybe skip the 1/2 chrome sockets. Get nice GP Duo sockets that can pull double duty. Sent from my VTR-L09 using The Garage Journal mobile app

CNC killed the file. When everything was manually machined each part coming off the machine would likely get hit with a file to break an edge. Now you just program a chamfer on the edge of everything.

I wanted Hazet style on HF budget and this is what I found to meet that goal.

Years ago when my dad insulated our garage back in Ontario he first just put up poly vapor barrier on the ceiling to hold the insulation up. A couple years later he then had it dry walled. The insulation and poly made a huge difference. We were working on snowmobiles a lot and it was heaven once...

Looks great. Each time I see someone post their lights I say damn I need to get my lights figured out. I have a 16x24 detached here in North Van that I have been slowly picking away at building out and organizing. Sent from my VTR-L09 using The Garage Journal mobile app

Looks like the coffee said "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!"

It's the kitchen we all wish Ikea actually made. We ripped this kitchen out of a house that was about to be torn down and got it along with a whole bunch of other cabinets and stuff for $250 bucks. It was intended to get used when we renovate our basement rental suite. After a number of years...

Following along intently. Point of no return on that next step. Sent from my VTR-L09 using The Garage Journal mobile app

I recently picked up a King 10x22 lathe, it is the same as a Grizzly G0602. I have not used it yet just finished getting it cleaned up and set up along with moving my little King mill. I build mountain bikes so this will get used to make pivot axles and parts for my jig. Also some custom bolts...
