I couldn't find anything I liked so I made this. It's a piece of Azek (PVC product used for decking and exterior trim, excellent product) that I cut to size, layed out the spacing and then drilled the holes. I found a piece of aluminum rod on my workbench for the handle and cut 2 small...

I keep my sockets in a deep drawer in my bottom rollaway. The deep well sockets wont stand up in the shallow drawers, but there's a good bit of wasted space in the deep drawer. I was thinking of making a sliding drawer to fit on the side walls, about 1/2 as wide as the drawer that could slide...

Second post. Been all thru the forum and enjoying the info. Here's a few pics of my garage and toys.

Just found this place searching for an 80 gallon air tank for my 40 year old Speedaire compressor. It has a Champion 2 stage pump (R15B) and a freshly refurbed GE 5hp motor. The tank was in sorry shape when I bought the unit a few years ago, and I think it's time. I have a 3 car integral...
