New toys for me Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

So here is the other side Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

So to answer questions: 1. I do have a shed for yard stuff 2. My plan would be to set aside one side of the garage for a project car 3. Tools to go in, engine lift, compressor, welder, tool box 4. the possible project car is about the size of a BMW E325 Matt

Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads out there... I am in a dilemma with my garage. It is a small two car that I would like to use for cars, and maximize the usefulness for projects. On one side I have HVAC, and water heater, then I have two walls that I can really use. see attached pics. I...

Yep that is a plan! Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

So I pulled it apart today and cut up the tank ....you need to definitely drain the tanks;) Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

So I'll post pics when i get it disassembled Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

No I am going to separate and junk the tank and possibly find a compressor that has a bad motor and swap my pump and motor on it.

So a few questions about this compressor... 1. I know it is better than oilless for at least noise level, but other than that I looks cool...not sure of other advantages 2. old brute is still working fine, but the PSI is only set at 100...not sure if I get say a 150 psi oilless and swap Can I...

So it looks like i am going to just get him to replace the unit and i will hang on to the upper unit. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

So i have this old compressor thst my Dad has been using for 25 years and he picked it up used at an auction. So it has a pinhole in the tank... I have the thought of pulling off the moter and pump and scrap the tank and replace it? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

Yes it is - it is old testor enamel paint i had found when we moved. I figured it would stick to clean metal. All I did was wipe each tool down with acetone first. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

picked these up at the flea market Saturday for a $1 each and a pair of vice grips (no pic yet)

So I can see the point of not painting tools. I am doing it to keep them from getting mixed up with other peoples tools ( stuff in my road/travel box) when and if I travel to work on friends stuff.

A little bit of paint can make a nice difference. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

I also got around to mounting a 2x4 on my saw horses, and painting them.

I repaired a stool that we use at work- one of my pharmacy technicians stood on it and a spot weld broke. Although it was a cheap stool I decided to try repainting it with my HF buzz box flux welder. I ground off the finish and welds to bare metal. I then gave it a fresh coat of paint.

yes this is a new to me house! I am so pumped! I have spent way to long working on gravel at my previous home. I finally did some work on my commuter car!
