    buying new metal

    I have a metal shop that is less than a 5 minute drive from my shop. Sheet I can buy 2x4 - 4x4 4x8 and larger pieces. Tube, angle etc I have to buy a 24' stick. There's another shop about 3 minutes away I can buy drops by the pound but it's really hit or miss.

    Pressure washer ?

    Haven't read other replies, sorry if I repeat what might have already been said. I own a professional pressure washing business so here's some pointers what to look for. You want to look for a Honda GX based engine. Pump wise, most homeowner PW's will be direct drive. Make sure your water...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    That's crossed my mind. The mounts are 1/4" (which the welder can handle) and the tube is pretty thin (GM 10 bolt). If not I can always borrow my buddies Ironman. No biggie.
