    I used shed snake skins form our ball python and corn snake. Just scattered it around the edges of the shop and near the doors. Never saw any signs of mice after that. I did sweep it up and replace it with fresh shed thought.

    Has anyone done a review or purchased the new..

    No, I decided not to buy it. I installed a HEPA filter and a HEPA rated bag inside my shop vac until I can afford a better dust collection system.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    If I do three sides, then it won't pivot and I'd lose use of the tool on the bottom. But, plywood on the sides is a nice idea.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I repurposed this cart for the 3rd, and probably final, time. Made a flip top cart out of it. It's not pretty but it works. I'll be adding some additional bracing to the sides as that thickness planer is freakin' heavy.

    How often do you hit a spot where only a single tool would work and what was it?

    No. I had to reach in-between some side pipes and the car body, fastening down a number of button-head bolts.

    Anyone in the San Diego area?

    I am in need of a drum sander and would like to rent/borrow one. I’ll use it at your shop (or you can run my material through.) We’ve had to demo our hardwood floors that were installed when the house was built in 1939, and I managed to grab some of the flooring. It’s 5/16 oak and I would like...

    Estate sales

    Last thing I picked up was a cedar chest. I just wanted the wood since I'm not able to find anything expect cedar fencing. When asked who it was for, I explained I was going to be disassembling it for the wood and if they'd rather sell it to someone who would use it a chest, I'd leave it.

    Above 1200 Sq/FT In-N-Outside the shop

    I was in Fresno in 1986 for about a year. It was really different from my prior area and I didn't enjoy it much. I did work with some great partners though.

    Free, come pick them up! Great cabinets but I don’t need them anymore.
