    Let's see your creeper seats

    This is gonna be one creepy thread. :wtf: :lol_hitti I've had this old creeper around for a number of years. At some point, one wheel came off and disappeared. Years of use and neglectful storage left it looking pretty sad. I found some casters that would fit the original holes, bolted 'em...

    I passed up a (possible) deal on a vintage drill press

    I wandered around a flea market this morning and saw a drill press very similar to what's at the following link. http://www.old-woodworking-tools.net/vintage-craftsman-13-drill-press.html Guy was asking $60 and wouldn't budge. I offered $40 as an impulse, but walked away after being told no...

    Swag: let's see it!

    I just got a SK socket set from thetoolwarehouse.net. It showed up with an extra plain white box packed with it. See below for the pic. What kind of swag have you gathered over the years?

    Show me your compressor cabinets

    Have any of you ever built a cabinet to enclose your compressor? I have my eye on a manufactured workbench from home depot, but the thought has crossed my mind that I should build one and kill two birds with one stone... i.e., stash the compressor under it. Then it occurred to me that noise...

    It's all your fault

    Before I joined this site, I was perfectly fine with my taiwanese tools and considered Craftsman stuff a "pie in the sky" goal to reach for someday. Reading some threads, I saw mention of "SK". I'd never even heard of it. But thanks to you turkeys, I got my hands on a little SK stuff and now...

    Ever fixed a bent toolbox?

    I picked up an unused but damaged 42" top chest off Craigslist cheapish. It looks like something heavy was stacked on top of it in shipment. I've already bent the lid back into useable shape, but the right side of the box is tweaked. Maybe I shouldn't have bothered buying this one, but meh... if...

    Hand Tools Dasco Pro (punches, chisels, prybars, etc)

    Had a need for some pin punches, so I picked up a set of Dasco Pro punches. Seems well made, even though I broke one (user error - hammered it into a hole that put a side load on the 1/16" pin punch). Seems readily available at home improvement stores and hardware stores. http://dascopro.com/

    Howdy y'all.

    I'm no pro, just an average joe... or Jawn, as the case may be. :lol_hitti Currently my garage is a tiny 10x20 space in a rented townhouse (barely qualifies as a garage, at that). Lately I've been trying to move enough **** out of it to actually use it as such, and realized my tool storage left...
