Here are my thoughts: I have a 6 and 4 year old and, like you, have little extra time to spare for anything personal. I recently added a 24x17 storage area on the back of our garage for similar reasons. I needed a place to put lawn mower, four wheeler, kayaks, misc. yard equipment, plus the 4...

Both you the setups described are slick and I could possibly do either. The question is do I want mobile or fixed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the tips. I thought I was being a bit paranoid. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am curious, how should a bench grinder be positioned in my shop. Currently my grinder sits, unplugged, on a shelf in my garage and I pull it out when I need to use it. Normally I just carry it to a small shelf I put in my garage door opening. While this works, it not the most convenient...

Yes, but not very often. At this point I would like to be able to walk on it when it's wet and not slip and or sink into softer areas. Majority of any traffic would be an ATV. Yesterday I did decide to give the Ok to spread gravel. That is happening today and I will see if that remedies...

The one thing I am still trying to figure out is an economical way to firm up the ground behind the garage. So far, the only thing I can come up with is gravel, and a lot of it. I did seed it with some Rye grass but that is not likely to do anything. Up for suggestions. Sent from my...

I figured that an update might interest, well.... Probably nobody. I can finally see the light on the repair/addition. The tree fell on my garage back on November 18th. Today is February 8th and it is still not 100% complete. This morning I lack: - the new overhead door (supposed to be...

That had been a consideration but I have an ATV, a jeep hard top, and a 48" cut zero turn mower that i am trying to get out of the main part of the garage. That coupled with all the other yard tools, sprayer, and kids toys and The space provided by the green house alone would not work. Would...

Some progress made yesterday. They prepped the site and began building forms for the slab, which is supposed to be poured in the next few days. Gravel arrives today and interior demo should start as well. I really wish I'd taken photos of the area behind my garage before Pepe and Manuel...

First, thanks for the kudos on my positive attitude. I can assure you that if insurance was not assisting I would not be very well behaved. I do try to keep in perspective that all this stuff is just material junk. Really just 1st World Problems. Regarding the tree. Shockingly enough, there...

Yes. My family was definitely lucky. The garage took 98 percent of the hit and the part of my house that was hit was the back guest room area. Insurance is footing the bill, minus deductible. I am finally able to say that today work has started on the repairs/expansion. They have rebuilt...

Kevin, The interior pics are on my other laptop. The damage was pretty bad, structurally, but most was relegated to the second floor attic. One of the main level exterior walls may have to be rebuilt but I am not yet certain. The plan is to rip off the green house on the back of the garage...

So, the week before thanksgiving we had a storm blow thru that, prior to the rain event (3-4 inches), brought some swift winds. This was what woke us up at 2am Being the "glass is half full" guy I am. I couldn't help but think about amount of quality firewood available next year. The...

I think a full set of metric and standard wright grips would calm her down! It really wasn't a big deal but she totally caught me off guard when she said, "Your tools from Harry Epsteins are in my car." It was a deer in headlights sort of moment. I am breathing today for 3 reasons: 1...

Well, I would to thank HJE for another great Epsteins Day. Unfortunately I will not be participating in the future due to one small but distinct error by the HJE staff. Instead of shipping to my office , they mistakenly sent my purchase to the house. I got BUSTED by the ole lady!!! Nice...

#105 here. Loaded up on some wright sockets and a set of sk brass drifts. My pocketbook is happy I didn't see the post about the Armstrong t shirts. I do like the shirt though. Oh well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Jori, Does HJE sell the full set of Westling Machine socket holders? I only see them individually. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I got one about 6 years ago as a birthday present. Now, this was back before every frat boy in the south had one on display. Mine has taken a beating over the years and still works flawlessly. Just another tool. Sometimes you have to pay up for quality. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am plan to continue with what I started last year and purchase a bunch of wright sockets on the fourth. That will, at least, be the base of my purchase. May get more if the funds allow it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well. I had decided I was done buying tools. Guess I am fighting off a bit of insanity. Thank you America and our independence for giving me another excuse to buy tools. I'm in! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
