    Quick and Cheap Welding Cart

    Always keep my welder under the small welding table I have which I can roll around, usually works alright but is a royal pain to drag the whole table outside to weld on cars. Wanted a cart with good size wheels that would roll easily over stuff and be a fairly small package to get through doors...

    Tiny Shop+ Carport Addition

    This thread is sort of a combination of my tiny shop and the Carport I added this summer. Shop is a 16x16 shed that is roughly finished inside and has a 4x16 lean too off the back as well as a loft with folding stairs inside. It works well for my needs which is mostly fabrication and repairing...

    Chevy Blazer Bumper Customization

    Buddy of mine bought a couple of 7 inch leds to mount somewhere on his 05 Blazer. While we were trying to find a good place to put em that looked good and worked good I suggested half jokingly to sink them into the bumper. He liked the idea so I fabbed up a couple of boxes and we got to work...

    So for a while I've been seeing threads filled with grinder and vise stands that are purely awesome :beer: I personally have a tiny little six inch Home Depot special Ryobi grinder, while it is not a very mighty machine it sees extremely heavy use in my shop mostly on the wire wheel. I've had it...

    Light duty overhead gantry from steel pipe

    So a while back I had a post about using barn door track as a light duty overhead gantry on the "my tractor forum"and it was a unanimous no. I recently acquired this piece of 1/4" wall steel pipe and thought I could make it work for this purpose. Last night I started, the ends of the pipe will...

    Milwaukee Chop Saw age

    Got this saw the other day for free from my cousin :thumbup: Someone on a job site dropped it and it wouldn't cut straight for them anymore, when I got it still cut straight vertically just not horizontally. I adjusted the fence and now have a fairly accurate saw I didn't have to pay for...

    Radial Drill Presses

    I want to see if many people have radial drill presses, the only one Ive seen in person is the one I own. Mine is an old one made by Beaver power tools somewhere in the 70s, I bought it at a yard sale for $40 and use it all the time it works great. These things are great because the head itself...
