    Temporary car body stand ideas?

    Time for a new Die Grinder

    After a little over 3 yrs, my go to Ingersoll Rand 307B decided it had too many parts in it to work yesterday. I don't have too many tools that actually break, but when they do, I usually try and upgrade a bit. I forget what I paid for it, not much but I think they've come down in price even...

    Off the Shelf Engine Stands

    I ended up finding and picking up an engine for my '37 Buick earlier than I was expecting, and now I'd like to get it on a stand, to atleast get it unhooked from the hoist, off the floor and out of the way a little bit. Problem being, its a Buick 320 straight 8, somewhere around 850-900lbs, and...

    Need a new Body/ Air Saw- CP, SO?

    ive had an IR 429 for not too long, maybe a little over a year, oiled before every use, lots of air available and new blades, and its been going downhill fast. its to the point that its basically a hindrance since its not powerful enough to cut, but vibrates enough to bind and distort the sheet...

    High clearance deep chrome sockets?
