Does nobody have anything good to say about a SK box or is there just no one with any experience with them. Going to try to buy it tonight and would love to hear some feedback on them first.

I am looking at buying a SK toolbox and curious if anyone has one or can vouch for their quality. The box is 41.5" wide and 24" deep. So far I have only seen the top and it is in pretty nice shape. Its red with the stainless drawer pulls and the top box has wide drawers on the left with a...

That polished blackhawk is amazing! Is that a factory piece or has it been modified? Love the streamlined look. It would take a tremendous amount of time to get mine to that point with all the scapes in the aluminum. I will get some more pics of the rear caster housing if your...

I've been searching online looking at plans for a rotisserie to use on my camaro for about a year. Just this thread alone has more good ideas and designs in it than in all the other sites I have found online. Very nice looking designs and features guys! I plan on incorporating a mix of all...

Tried to take a few more pics but only managed 2 before my camera batteries died.

I hadnt thought of polishing the raised letters yet Stang. Not original but could look pretty neat and would be easy.

CRTDI I will try to snap a few pics of it today on my lunch break if I get a few extra minutes. It has the little button on the bottom like the ones do with the light but I dont believe mine ever had a light on it. Both sides of the handle are hollow with the one on (I think) the left having...

I guess getting it for 1/3 of the original sales price is pretty good considering it still works. Those pictures look like mine but they have no mention of alloy side plates in the ads. Seems like the weight savings would have been a sales point.

I have an old blackhawk S-4 floorjack that I plan to redo this spring. When I first purchased the jack it had been sitting in an old shop with no roof in the elements for the past few years. After cleaning it up somewhat the jack seems to be functioning correctly. I lifted my blazer and it...

I agree with creativecars. I have an old millermatic 130 and am running the .23 wire. All you need to do is flip the drive rollers around, get the correct size tip and probably need to change out to the correct sized liner. It should push it smoothly with the new liner. Just like he said...

Neat to know how many locals are on here. Some of yall are really close.

Anybody else on here from upstate SC? Noticed a few guys from greenville but not many. Just curious how many locals have the same garage journal addition that I do!

You have a pm

In my neck of the woods that would be roughly $3800 to add additional stone and do a 2" surface of asphalt. Might be more of less in your area.

Just an update on the screw press. I called the guy back and was going to make him an offer in the $175-200 range. I asked him if he had thought about a price before I mentioned what I had in mind and he said he was thinking around $500. :wtf: I told him I was thinking around 200 at most...

I havent inspected the grinder/buffer close enough yet to know if there was a date on it. Judging by the look of the cord I would guess no newer than the 60's. All I can remember is it was rated at 1/3 hp which is a very conservative rating and it was made by Schauer. I have an old Grinder...

I hope these links work. http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/attachments/f38/27287d1287665358-arbor-press-force-gauge-weaver-20-t-21-10-10.jpg http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/attachments/f38/27288d1287665383-arbor-press-force-gauge-weaver-20t-mech-21-10-10.jpg The one pictured in the...

Thanks Larry G you were correct with screw press. I did a google image search and found one nearly identical. I had the wrong manufacturer name, it's identical to a weaver so that must have been what was on the tag. He wouldnt take $100 for it so I might offer a little more. Seemed to be...

I ran across what appears to be an old manual style shop press for sale but can find any information on it. The name plate on it listed it at 28 tons and if I am not mistaking the manufacturer was Wright. The only other thing written on it was "Hi Speed" on the press mechanism. The frame...

I bought some stuff from this old shop last weekend so I decided to go back by on Saturday morning to see if there was anything left. Ended up with a pretty nice box full of vintage made in usa tools and a cool grinder and stand. Cant remember the make of the grinder but it is really big to...
