    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Put new paddles and scraper on the snow blower. World of difference. I'm going to order another set to keep in the garage for next year.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Assembled a few toys for my 1yr old daughter. Got some gift cards for Christmas so I ordered some tools I had in my Amazon cart. Got an air hose reel as a gift so I have to build a shelf for my compressor that will also mount the reel underneath.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Picked up a 20+ yr old craftsman reverse tine power drive tiller. Coworker gave it to me for free, tines spin under power but the wheels don't drive. Assume it's a snapped key somewhere inside. He couldn't get the wheels off the axles (rusted on, also first step necessary to disassemble the...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I have a Milwaukee 9 amp 4.5", great piece, dad has had the same one and it gets way more use than mine and only issue has been the paddle switch needed replaced (was just worn out from use). Got it on sale for $75 probably last a lifetime.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    It'll have all the cool factor. Should be plenty peppy. Those motors will take a lot of boost. 5-6 lbs won't hurt a thing. Little known fact, Toyota bought that block design from GM and used it in the supra that will make 2000hp on a stock block. Toyota did move head studs though to handle...

    That thing has so many knobs and switches on it I'd forget how to weld, and I've been welding for 28 years.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    What kind of power you expecting from a blown straight 6? That's very cool. I'm building a '49 Chevy, went a little different route for power though.

    He mentioned above that it's a 135 I do believe. So, we read.

    Not to rain on your parade, but IMHO that welder isn't big enough to be welding mounts on that rearend, if that's your plan...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I cleaned my garage and workbench so I had a place to set the snowblower and the bench so I could get it running. [emoji107][emoji300]

    Punch set

    I'm not worried about sacrificing one, but I want stuff that'll make it through a task, not break the first smack with a hammer.

    Welder

    Get a gas machine, world of difference. That Hobart above is a good machine if you're just doing thin and hobby stuff. I have a Small Lincoln 110v for small stuff very similar to this. Great machine, but it's not good for over 1/8" material. If you are welding thicker than that you need...

    Punch set

    I'm looking for a good quality hardened punch/chisel set. Preferably US or European made. Any recommendations? Brands? Looking at various round sizes, center punch, and various chisel sizes. Primarily general garage and home repairs, but will also be used for metal work at times. Tired of...

    WTB: Large radial arm drill press

    I'm looking for a radial arm drill press for my dads fab shop. We are in eastern Iowa but would drive to pick up a machine that's worth it. Prefer 440v. Or if anyone knows good government surplus auction sites to search for such an item that would help also. Don't need anything new, it'll...
