    Tool Cabinet

    Picked up a Lista Tool Cabinet from FB for $60. Currently renovating it (cleaning, painting, and oiling bearings). I’ve outgrown my other tool storage and can’t find anything without rummaging thru every drawer.

    New 25' x 51' Garage

    This will be long. Sorry. Last Nov we moved to a house that had a Mother-In-Law quarters because my mother is getting to the point where she needs to be around family. We found a suitable house with MIL suite but no garage. Just a 2-car carport. I enclosed the carport to make a wood shop...

    New Garage/Shop

    Berkroy Sheet Metal Tools

    Cross posted this on owwm, but thought I'd see if anyone here had experience with these tools. Got them from my uncle who used them to teach Ind Arts. Anyone know anything about them?

    What Did I Buy?

    I picked up a Wilton Bullet Vise today. I think it is a 4" but that's all I know about it. How do I determine type and age? It has 101028 on one side and HD on other side.

    Checkered Floor

    Has anyone put down the cheap black & white tile (like used in elementary schools) and then put an epoxy clear coat over it? What type of clear coat? How many coats? What to avoid? Thanks.
