    The evolution of tool storage inside the tool box

    A place for everything and everything in it's place. As others have said, I'd rather not have to fumble around and hunt for a tool. Even the blow molded tool cases can be modified to fit more stuff in them.

    Removing a Split Pulley

    Most of the belt drive exhaust fans I've worked on had resilient mounts, adjustable pulley and were vertical mount. That motor and pulley should work well for a DP.
