I am an avid DIYer and work on a wide variety of projects. Much lower skill level than Don at the Big Party Garage. But I do find a need to occasionally clean up something on a wire wheel or buffer. Several years ago, I bought an Eastwood 1/2 hp buffer motor and used it for several years until...

I see most on here are replying to your original post with proposed solutions to keep your window from being etched which reduces visibility. I have found that any kind of blasting generates very fine dust particles of rust , paint, etc which will settle on the bottom of the viewing window and...

I give a couple of squirts of Windex to a paper towel, open the cabinet, and wipe both the underside of the window and light. I do this after about every hour of blasting. Eventually the acrylic covering my glass will get discolored to the point that I remove the window and apply a fresh sheet...

Absolutely whatever floats your boat! Factors to consider - color scheme of shop, show shop or working space, future maintenance. Most workbenches are only going to look pristine once in their life.

I am a long time follower and admirer of your projects. Absolutely no negativity intended. I just though the image of carrying an air compressor and chisel to change a tire might be amusing to some. Keep up the good work.

Ryan, First, thank you for all you do for this forum. Second, I took pictures of my experiences with the forum today and am attaching for your info. Hope this will help. When I first navigated to the logon screen, the side ads, as shown in picture 5, started appearing. After logging on to the...

Well, I just have to ask. Since you glued on those fake hubcaps, do you have to carry an air compressor and pneumatic chisel with you to remove them to change a tire when you get a flat?

As of today, I am getting this on Firefox. Highly annoying. Also seems to be interfering with the back arrow to return from a thread.

Some of those look like engine valve springs.

That looks like a lot of work to improve the efficiency of your space and it looks like it was worth it. Were the vertical dividers removable for ease of sawing or did you have to use something like an oscillating saw on them in place?

If it were me, I would empty and remove both those drawers so that you can examine the condition of the drawer slides and post pictures of the condition so others can assess the repair process.

Before the big snow storm hit, I finished disassembling the compressor and cleaning up the components for recycling - after this pic, I removed rings, bearings and bushings. The big snow storm for this area was forecast to dump 10 to 14" of snow (11 days ago). Certainly not complaining, but at...

Man, does that take me back to my high school typing class - about 58 years ago!

Loom splitter? That looks like my wife's stitch remover (sewing supplies), although with maybe a more robust handle.

Pond? I don't understand your statement. The reason I raise the question is I have what appears to be the same press and when I had the beam installed as in the picture, when I tried to change the position of the beam and removed a pin, if I did not have the beam held just right it would rotate...

When looking at your pics, I wondered if your beam was installed upside down. Perhaps it makes no difference, but it seems to me that those angled plates in the beam, if the beam were rotated 180 degrees, would make it less likely that a jam like that would occur.

Please don't make assumptions about my *******. Thank you for confirming that your post was based on a false assumption. I never made any claim to inventing - just posted a picture of something that I made. Perhaps any box store in your area carries such items, but I have never seen one locally.

Since the closest Menards is over 100 miles from here and I am not in the market to buy, what is the point of your post? I did a search on the Menards website and the item they offer does not appear as well made as mine.
