    What size for a fab table? Anything you wish you had done?

    Getting ready to finally build my table. What is the height they everyone is building to? Are you planning to work standing up or on a stool?

    My first Welding project, a welding bench

    Sweet build! How did you attach the top, or is it floating? I finally picked up a 4' X 8' X 3/4 piece of unused plate for $80. Has a 20" x 20" cutout so I'm trying to figure out the size I want to build. Would you have gone with a different size if the plate allowed, or was that your choice...

    My 'sanding center'

    I like the idea. But depending on what you are sanding, it seems that the drawers would become very dirty from the dust and grit generated. Will you be using some sort of vac with this application?

    Looking at torque wrenches.

    LG, I have that exact TW on order now. Probably overkill for a hobbyist, but I do not want to have to buy a second one.

    New Sears 2009-2010 Tools Catalog

    Well, my catalog arrived on Tuesday. It looked like it was run half way thru a garbage disposal before it was delivered. Those tool boxes look very nice! I too was wondering if they are made by SO by the looks.

    My $9 Pawn Shop Find.....

    I agree that they labeled it wrong. It was in a glass locked case at eye level. There was a Craftsman standard teardrop 1/4" next to it for $10.:dunno: The label on in was marked Snap-On and was dated November 5, 2008. I can't believe that it sat there that long with the priced showing until...

    My $9 Pawn Shop Find.....

    .....Might not be such a good deal. I found a very good shape 1/4" drive Snap-On TM737 at a local pawn shop a week ago. BUT, I was at Sears last night and saw an almost identical ratchet (except for the plastic handle) in a Gear Wrench China version.:shocking...

    What are these tools?

    I wonder if your pliers are actually made by De-Sta-Co (DeStaCo). They make toggle clamps and lots of other workholding devices.

    Sharpie Retractable Markers

    We are using quite a few of them on the production floor where I work. The guys on the floor like them a lot. They are concerned with dropping a top in a blender.

    Best tool you've ever found in the street

    Found a 19 MM Snap-on 1/2" drive impact socket last week. Found a Craftsman old school fine tooth 1/4" ratchet about three months ago. My best find was a long handle 1/2" Wright ratchet. I was 7 or 8 while riding along with my father and brother, when we came upon a toolbox in the road. Me...

    August Craftsman Club

    I received my flyer yesterday. That is the first I have seen of the indexable prybars. I could see some instances where they could be handy. I wonder who manufactures them.
