    Changing the wheels on my toolbox

    I guess it means something different to some, but today I changed the truck under my service truck. Huge job, and honestly I hope to never do it again. The gap in between the headache rack and box will be filled in as a flat deck that the welder and compressor will sit on, one on each side...

    New vise idea

    Probably not new, but I picked up this import Wilton cheap the other day to mount on my forklift. Thought I would share as I know several people here use little forklifts around their shop. I use this one constantly, sometimes as nothing more than a workbench outside with a pallet on the forks...

    Rusty Snap On

    I had a good chuckle​ today in light of all the recent colorful snap on threads lately. I have a hell of a time keeping moisture out of my service truck boxes, sometimes things get a little rusty. Thought the tool polishers would like this. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

    Cool fab job today

    Had an aluminum trailer in that shredded a tire at 70mph, just destroyed the back corner. Much custom fitting and I got it back pretty damn close to original. Rewired the lights and made a light box. Still not very good at welding aluminum but it is definitely getting better. Sent from my...

    New old side box

    Snap on truck had this old side box this morning that he took in on trade. Almost the same vintage as my home box that I've had for years, thought they made a good pair. $175 for the side box. I keep very basic tools at home since the service truck is usually here, and was able to empty the...

    Night work

    Last week I finally got around to installing some work lights on my service truck. I don't try and work in the dark but this time of year you can get caught out after dark. Installed 7 led flood lights. 5 of them on the crane, this picture from tonight was only changing belts and tensioners but...

    Old Wayne compressor repower

    I have a Wayne gas powered two stage compressor that I use in my service truck. Running the original Wisconsin single cylinder engine. The engine is getting tired so I bought the 420cc predator engine from HF and put it on this weekend. Since it was out we cleaned it some and gave it a new coat...

    First time welding aluminum

    I have several aluminum headache racks for a trucking company to modify and install on the trucks, some simple to some major fabrication on each one. I picked up an old Miller tig welder since I have always wanted to try tig anyways and it would work for these projects. Needless to say I am...
