    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT 24x30 First shop for Binders and Crawlers

    I'd love to find one of the small IH Crawlers, for yard art. Same with a binder or other farm equipment. Currently on the hunt for an ore cart and ore bucket, as they will go well with my tram scoop and cover the 3 main ways they moved ore in the old mines out here. There is room on the...

    Got the drill press project wrapped up and put it to use. Wired in a duplex outlet with an appliance cord so the drill press and its magnetic light plug in on the machine. Motor was missing the toggle switch it came with so put in a nice machine switch. Whipped up a quick cad model and put...

    Why are Snap-On toolboxes so expensive?

    Exactly this. I have a good long time friend, he went and got a brand new Icon for roughly the same that I paid for my Epiq. I was patient and it took a lot of years of wait and looking to find the right deal. The Craftsman and Kobalt boxes were doing fine but I wanted 1 box for everything and...

    Chasing the neverending quest of being organized and having a better workflow in the shop... decided to build some cabinets. I have a great friend/neighbor who is set up for carpentry work and was willing to help out with this project. So between his scrap sheet goods, and a couple of new...

    When plans fall through and you have a day off of work.... time to keep moving on the reorg of the shop. Trying a new layout to see if I have the feeling of more room and better workflow. It'll be good to have the weld bench between the 220v outlets as one is shared with the compressor and...

    Trying to stay on top of this both to add since I've learned a lot from reading here and to help keep myself motivated with projects. Now that things are clean, its time to start working on some smaller summer projects to prep for the scout build. The daytona drill press developed a speed...

    I fully agree with you on the section I highlighted in bold. Something I am working on as well. Give me all the chaos at work and I am laughing and scaring people with how happy and low stress I am but the smallest thing at home and I have to remember that it's okay and normal for $hit to happen...

    Nothing fancy, basic 10x12, single 5ft wide door, with gambrel roof and loft storage. My neighbor and I knocked it out over three weekends. First being rock and then floor of shed, then the next was main structure, and the final weekend was paint and roofing. Having the gate made things...

    Really need to be better about keeping this current but life happens and spent most of the last year working out of the country. Problem, well good thing, is there was plenty of down time and some time killing on Marketplace started a slippery slope..... Found a good deal on a used 60" Epiq...

    The squeeze bags actually hold up well in a jeep. I have two of the soft side diff fluid bags, and other fluids in a soft sided bag in my 2dr and havent had any issues. From easy trail rides to running the Dusy out in Cali. But I have the fluid bag behind the drivers seat and tend to over...

    Let’s see if I can get this back on track…. I got tired of moving the plasma by hand and having it on the floor so built a cart out of scrap material. Next up was turning the table I built to support the engine during mock up into a grinder and catch table Table was important as I needed...

    Show us your welding projects

    Took a look in the scrub bin and made a cart for the plasma. Got tired of it being either in the case or on the floor.

    Looking for a tool bag

    I haven't, but I am out west so not much humidity. I leave the zippers partway open when I get back from a trip to help avoid trapping humidity in the bag, as part of my clean and check of the tools. The zippers are waterproof, and I've had that tested. So whatever gets in stays in. I'd toss...

    Looking for a tool bag

    Ha, I figured the same but for automotive tool kit that is has what you need and only a couple extras Brennan's bags are hard to beat. They are handy, and after the next order I put in, I'll have enough for two in the jeep, two in the buggy, and then a floater or maybe two.

    Looking for a tool bag

    For my rockcrawler and my Jeep I use two of the Titan Toolbag's from Brennan's Garage: Titan Tool Bags Big enough to fit all my hand tools in one, and all the battery in another. When I ran the Dusy with the JK, the power tool bag had M18 1/2 Fuel impact, 3/8 stubby M18 impact, M12 flashlight...

    Lets see your SWAG bandsaw table set up

    I bought my SWAG table, and foot pedal not long after I got my Milwaukee deep cut portaband. For me, it adds a ton of versitility and with the foot pedal controller it's a dream to use. Need to add a couple pics later, but mine is mounted to the bench top. Small 2ftx4ft bench made out of...

    Thanks. $500 isn't a bad deal for that size cabinet. Good luck on the hunt.
