It's like he found a pile of parts and reassembled it without having ever looked at a drill press.

I inherited the same saw from my wife's grandfather. The stand looks just like the one I have. He built a box around the stand to collect dust, and I'm guessing that a previous owner on yours cut that hole to collect dust.

I bought one last year at that price and the micro-click adjustment lock broke the first day I used it and now there's a lot of slop in the adjustment. If I needed it for something where precise torque was actually needed I wouldn't trust it.

It has been a while since my last post, but I have made progress. Two years ago, I had only finished the tandem bay in my garage, while the main section remained half-finished. I added insulation, did the drywall, and painted. Then recently, I re-painted the back wall of the tandem bay...

You have a great space to work with. I like the vintage hand tools.

Welcome!

What I don't get are the people who join the forum, make their first post to complain about some company that, (as far as I know has no sponsorship over this site), and then take off never to be heard from again...

Are you on the Old Woodworking Machines forum? Your recently restored machines look familiar. Congrats on getting married, too.

This garage is easily becoming one of the more epic ones on the Garage Journal.

My cabinets were old kitchen cabinets. I sanded them down and stained the cases and frames and painted the insert with Rustoleum Hammered Silver. I used an enamel paint on the inside where the cabinets actually get most of their wear. From my experience, I wouldn't bother with spraying them...

I get Spax screws. They're made in USA and/or Germany.

Delta rockwell 17". Check the serial number on the left (as you're looking at it). That should help you date it to exactly what model 17" it is. My guess is late 60's. Here a link to OWWM: http://www.vintagemachinery.org/photoindex/detail.aspx?id=16234

Welcome!

I have no idea what I'll use it for either, but when the moment arises, I'll know... I finally got back to the Lowes where I saw them, and unfortunately they are all out.

It is the 89 and I saw it on clearance last week for about $23, and I was going to pick it up at that price, but I stopped in last night for some other ****, and saw they had marked it down more to $8.25. Hence, I snatched one up. I might go buy another one of they aren't all gone and give it...

I just had a chuckle because I saw your homemade fire extinguisher in the background!

ChannelLock Rescue Tool is on Clearance for $8.25. I'm not sure what I'll actually use it for, but it might come in handy.

What are the cabinets made out of, and what kind of paint did you use? They look good, and my brother-in-law wants something similar.

That workbench is sweet! Is it all metal?

I don't think floor mats are worth getting angry over. Just my opinion. The floor mats he ordered didn't fit, he called the company and they gave him the information he needed to return them. But getting angry over it is just dumb. That's like me getting angry with Levi's because the pants I...
