Demon WP (Wettable Powder) made by Syngenta. Great stuff, comes 4 water soluable packets per bag for around US$12. Most of the pest control guys I have talked to use a commercially available version of this product. I use one packet dropped in a 2 gallon garden sprayer around my baseboards...

Aggie Ring....~$40K Bottle Opener................. it's always with me and works like a charm...... aaaahhhhhh....Bohemian Beer! Ein Prosit! :beer:

Talked to a salesperson with BAF this past week about the 8 foot diameter Airgo portable fan, really awesome fan that moves a lot of air-to the tune of ~$6500. I have not completely ruled it out, but that's a good bit of money for air....

My garage is a wreck right now-so no pics....however, I too used corrugated galvalume roofing for my walls. I have drywall from the ceiling down to the 5 foot level and everything 5 feet and down is covered in corrugated metal. I used self tapping screws to secure the sheets to the wall studs...

I have installed several gooseneck hitches in my trucks. I have always taken 10inch channel iron sitting flat side up across the frame rails-sitting flush against the bed of the truck. Prior to putting the channel in the truck, I took a piece of 8 inch channel facing channel to channel with...

Nice looking shop! I like to see metal working shops on here....as that is what I do for a hobby, most of the shops I see on here are woodshops or mechanic shops. Thanks for the posts and I look forward to seeing more-and congrats on the new "cave".

One of the previous responders posted about Tempo WP. It sounds strikingly familiar to what I was going to recommend-Demon WP. Demon WP is a wettable powder (hence the WP) that is extremely effective and easy to use. It is made by a company called Syngenta. I have talked to a lot of pest...

I have built a few metal buildings that required insulation in the ceiling. We used "chicken wire" or hardware cloth screwed to the bottom of the purlins and then layered bat insulation in the wire and then layed the metal over the top of the purlins. The bats of insulation were thick enough...

I usually weld on the the ground/concrete floor. Most of my projects are large enough that I would have to have a huge table to handle them. I have always wanted an Acorn Platen table, but have not had a lot of luck finding one that my poor **** can afford... Acorn's description: Acorn...

All of the above....and....one of my favorites is: http://www.iforgeiron.com/

Very nice design Vinko.. I like the flat bar idea. Your platen table-in the pic-is pretty awesome-wish I had one half that nice... As for keeping my "garden" tools anywhere but the shop-that would be a waste of energy for me-as I generally grab them when I am grabbing other items kept in my...

Beware of Peeps...they are some tough little boogers....

Here's my favorite one(that I own)-126# Soderfore Paragon. Here's my portable setup for blacksmithing group meetings and demonstrations, Buffalo Forge, Champion Blower, Columbian Post Vise, Hofi Hammer and about a ton of other assorted hand tools.... I also have a 100# Trenton and a 59#Hay...

It can be done by yourself (or with the help of friends and family), BUT I highly advise against it. You will spend a lot of time and money to mix the concrete yourself and it is like making a cake in several mixing batches. It is not likely that the end result will be uniform. I have poured...

The Mosquito Magnet does work and here is the skinny on how: http://www.mosquitomagnet.com/how_it_works/ My in-laws live in Houston and have a large back yard that they like to enjoy. Two years ago my mother in law sent me to Sears to get one of the Mosquito Magnets-the Liberty that covers 1...

Don't give up. I have had the pleasure of cleaning up my grandfather's shop after he passed away back in 1995-we are still working on it....It is a 100'x60' and was packed with all sorts of treasures. That anvil is a great find, along with the large drill press, air compressors, sand blaster...

The Gempler's design would work well. I made a similar rack last year for all of my long handled items. I took an 8ft. section of 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 Angle Iron, bent and welded 2 pieces of 1/2 round every 1ft.-1.5ft. I spaced them out on the angle iron to allow for different tools(i.e. leaf rakes...

I have a cabinet full of beer steins/mugs with my name and the date of the event on them from numerous weddings I have been in (being German/Polish we occassionally drink a little beer). Pocket knives are always cool. I wanted to do something a bit different when I got married. I have a...

Gunsmithing workbench I made for a friend-traded a Sig Sauer P6 (225) 9mm for it..
