    My sister had that exact car when she was 16yo....until it was stolen from the driveway. I remember my Dad hoping it wouldn't be recovered!

    Black oxide hardware coating

    I'll be honest, I didn't even know there was stainless black oxide, I'll have to give it a whack as even here in AZ standard steel black oxide stuff will rust.

    Bridgeport power drawbar question

    The struggle is real. I'm 5'8.5" (per my basketball card stats) and my Bridgeport is on leveling feet and it sits on the gas curb in my garage. It makes it super ergonomic to use as I'm not hunched over, but I definitely need a stool to change a collet.

    Do you "exercise" your ratchets?

    My 1/4" ratchets are starting to look like 3/8", so it's probably time to put them on an exercise routine......

    That hole saw is badass. My electrician used one the other day to put some lights in my house and it cut a really nice hole and did a great job containing the drywall dust.

    rattle_snake's random shop projects v0.1

    I hear you Justin, there are times the toys become a burden and stress and they deplete any enjoyment you get from them. It's hard to accept sometimes that life and interests change, and that's ok. It sounds like the boat has served your family well, and you're ready to move onto something...

    rattle_snake's random shop projects v0.1

    I'd look at off the shelf Jeep JK or JL arms, nothing beats vulcanized OEM bushings on the street and you could get takeoffs for very little money.

    That would be awkward watching the Ram guys in assless chaps handing out tampons.

    Puget Dude’s creations and fabrications (Random project thread.)

    I was trying to figure out where you're going to put the condom dispenser and it reminded me of a bar I went to in Tucson called the "Meet Rack". The condom dispenser in the women's bathroom was linked to a firehouse bell. If a lady invested in a condom, she was rewarded with a giant bell...

    I was at King of Hammers a couple of weeks ago with a group of friends, one of which has a really wild Cherokee. For those that don't know, Cherokee guys are a subset all their own. Naturally, everyone and their brother with a Cherokee wanted to talk to him about his Jeep. We were leaving...

    Getting tired of Hansen socket organizers. Westling looks tempting. Any Westling users here?

    I get why O.P. had higher expectations for $500, but unfortunately when it comes to color anodizing, you can never count on it matching. If color matching is important, you really need to go with black. Red is one of the most inconsistent from what I've seen. The colors also inevitably fade with...

    Move over Harbor Freight Vevor opens first physical store

    I just bought a Vevor stainless steel enclosure and it's impressively high quality. It was the only one that I could find that fit my needs, and I wouldn't hesitate to order another.

    I haven't seen other options either. At first I thought it had a chrome finish, but now I see it's the black oxide finish Lisle uses. Occasionally I have a tap that doesn't quite fit the Lisle sockets right, so I would entertain other options of they were available.

    No Icon Adjustable Wrench?

    The Tekton stubbies are cool because they have a square drive on the end to put a ratchet or breaker bar. Otherwise, the good Ol' Proto Click-Stop are my go-to adjustables. I only use them on metric fasteners though; they don't seem to fit SAE quite as well........

    Does the Obsessed Garage Youtube guy have OCD?

    I was more impressed to see this old anvil in that shop.
