    Help me justify keeping this...

    So i saw this hiding in an overhead at home depot. It's a m18 fuel drywall gun kit with a free cut out tool. It was a display so i got it for 170.00. I originally just wanted the cutout tool and i figured I'd sell the drill kit and get my money back. But being the tool hoarder i am this seems...

    Need advice on a workbench and tool boxes

    I need some opinions. I sold my Milwaukee tool box after deciding it took up too much floor space for the anount of tools it held. I also have this 13 foot long work table the previous home owner built. It's a blessing and a curse because of the size. I bought one of the 52 inch husky rollers...

    Question about buffers and grinders

    I've got a small 1/3 hp craftsman bench grinder that's missing everything. I just picked up this matco badged wissota for 25.00. It's missing some bits but i think it's the obvious better machine so I'd rather track down those parts. Would the craftsman serve as a solid buffer? All I would need...

    Yup I got the top for 50.00 and the bottom was a display that was on clearance for 280 but I got it for 60.00 off. Ive been eyeing these for a while. I love it but i think the drawer configuration could have been better. It fills up quick. Now I'm waiting for the Milwaukee work benches to go on...

    What do you guys sit on in the garage? Just got this beauty

    My mom pulled this out of her building in downtown Chicago and gave it to me. It's what I think is a 1940s royal chair/stool. It's in amazing shape and should fit in nicely into my garage. What do you guys use?
