Work benches are done. Tops align nicely. Frame is rigid although it moves a decent amount due to the casters. 6 T5's above the bench light it up nicely. Forgive the walls. Someday they will get painted. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Built a rack for Jeep doors. Great space savings. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Its about that time again. The weather cooled off and I decided to spend some time in the garage. I picked up a "work station" mainly due to a 8' 6 bulb T8 light that caught my eye. I also picked up a 14' conveyor frame with a UHMW top. Brought it home, stripped it to the bare pieces and...

A friend picked this up at a local yard sale. Can anyone identify this? Seems to be cast iron bottom with aluminum cylinders. Spins but doesn't pump up. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Not exactly vintage, but old enough I can't identify it. A friend picked this up at a local yard sale. Can anyone identify this? Seems to be cast iron bottom with aluminum cylinders? Spins but doesn't pump up. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Local shop fabbed up the cage. Primer/Paint applied today in the garage. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I've broken every zip tie I've ever bought from Harbor Freight. If its even a slightly chilly (<=45F) I can bend them in half and often break them. I consider them worthless. I have blown through two sets of 1/2" HF impact sockets, cracked all the useful sizes in very short order. That was a...

Yup. I picked up the battery and the core was already refunded on the receipt. They didn't ask for my old battery. I also used the $20 of $70 for front wheel bearings on the girlfriends Honda. If only they sold tires! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk - now Free

Check out Oriellys webpage. Top right corner shows a clearance section. I show < $40 for the set plus shipping. There is a GJ thread about this clearance section. I believe some have saved shipping via the store. My local store has these on the shelf for alot more and wasn't very responsive...

Bending a breaker bar and cracking an impact socket is apples/oranges IMO. My plain jane IR Impact has cracked its share of HF sockets. ... I broke all the useful sizes of two sets of HF impact sockets. Bought a "PT" or "mechanics" Orielly's set and have never looked back. Half the price of...

FWIW. I purchased my Optima Yellow top using Advanced coupons and came out ahead of almost everywhere (including SAMS). A coworker purchased a standard battery for an economy car with the coupons cheaper than everywhere else he checked. Coupon + In store pickup = reduced price, no shipping &...

Drawer organizing progress to date. Garage reorganization has paused for a few weekends for dirt bike reassembly and dryer repair. Dryer repair is complete and this was a very nice work space to use. Motorcycle reassembly starts later this week. Someday I will get the garage done. I hope this...

My pup. 10 month old mutt. He has two modes - wired and crashed. When he is crashed will sleep next to the air compressor while running with impact and saw zaw in use. When he is wired he has to taste everything.

My weekend was spent playing with Hydraulics to undo some damage incurred the weekend before. Now I have a few more tools to store. I did take a baby step towards organization. I have a 13" shelf above the garage door. I planned on 16" deep, 13" barely clears the garage door. I will use...

I'm building a work bench and was wondering the same thing. I decided if its skinny then put them on the corners to get as much stability as possible. If its almost as wide as it is tall, then stability probably isn't a problem and I would put them inboard. My work bench is only 24" deep and...

Progress as of last week. Furniture is on the right wall. Hanging items are on the left. Working on clearing out the front wall - the old dinky work bench left last night. Cabinet should leave this weekend. I'm looking for a color scheme. I love the look of painted floors, but can't...

The only picture that attached above is the usual project zone called my garage. The work area is in the middle and spreads out to engulf the garage. I will work on attaching other pictures to show the layout of the garage. I started this cleanup little over a week ago. So far my garbage can...

This got long so here is a summary of changes to my garage: 23D x 22W 2 car garage. House door on left wall. Hanging items on left wall. Hanging items on front wall. Toolbox/bench/cabinets on right wall. Possibly paint. Long version: Every few years my garage gets cleaned up*@#$ This...

Darn that place. I do like the $1 mutlimeter for random toolbags. I have been thinking about a dual toolbox work bench. Haven't figured out if I want my tools that low, I tend to favor the upper box of my current toolbox.

Great starting point!. I really like the walk through door access on the front. I wear out my garage door letting people in/out when its cold/raining/etc.
