Right on.

Hey Al, Welcome. You might want to post in the wanted section so more people will see your thread.

I'll have to check you WOC out. Do you have pictures in the Red/Gray thread?

I really appreciate you driving to meet me and hope you will enjoy seeing the transformation. This one is going to be easier for sure!

I have a few. Here's the biggest. Well, it was the biggest til I got a crown top radial arm saw with cabinet base this morning. I don't have pictures of the saw yet. The last picture is the beginnings of a crown top badge I made.

Here is my Craftsman metal wall cabinet. It stays open most of the time because I'm always getting something out of it. It does fold up rather small.

Here is my workbench and its friend. I plan to make more like the small one because I have more of the rough cut 4x4s to make the butcher block top from.

Thanks Ipb. I have done several and used Rustoleum Sunrise Red and Rustoleum Gray Hammered. The colors on the front can fade over time, but when I first began my projects I matched the Rustoleum to the underside of a drawer. I've taken the trim off quite a few drawers. It's just 'pinched...

It won't be THE wall of Craftsman, but it could be called a mini wall I guess. I'll keep posting. Thanks.

Here's where I stand at the moment. 99% of outside paint removed and inside the top sanded well enough to accept primer and paint.

I just realized how many of my tools/things I use on a regular basis are blue-ish. This picture shows some of the stuff I use for cleaning. I always clean all surfaces well (most of the time two scrubs) before doing any sanding. Surface prep is very important as you all know. I don't have...

I'm thinking about starting a poll to see whether or not you guys think I should keep the lock option...... Nahh, I'll just weld a tiny piece of metal onto the top and weld the two screw holes shut. I dented the ends of the slot slightly so my welds would not stand too proud of the top surface...

Well, thanks to Lookn4'67Galaxieconv, I have a new top box. I got it the day before yesterday and have already begun the restoration. I've completed three of these so far, and also 3 rollers. I just recently finished the last roller I had so this was perfect timing. I am expecting a new lock...

Seems like you need to go out and find 36 red and gray cabinets/boxes to go with those keys. Nice find! I'll be putting my next top box restoration in a thread soon in case anyone wants to check it out.

Man, that saw looks nice! You ****.

I don't see most of the pictures in the posts, only a few. There is no photobucketsux thingy saying the picture is not available, there just are no pictures???

Hey Car Hobby, Your collection looks great. You don't have your location in listed, but here in GA the red and gray stuff is hard to come by. I have three rollers and three top chests. I have had to scrounge all over to find badges. All of mine don't match either. I have found that...

I've done a few, but have not had to do any mechanical or electrical. Like Horse said, head over to the block grinder thread.

Drives, I'm going to need luck with this move. Man, I've collected a lot of stuff in 62 years. I'll post a picture of my bench as it sits today and the smaller, companion bench.

I believe that is maple and will be a nice, hard surface to work on. It looks cool too.
