I know a lot of guys here like vises, so here's an opportunity. It's in central Oregon, and I have no idea how much he wants for it. But if you're close and have an interest, here is the info. http://bend.craigslist.org/tls/3985729904.html

You don't say where you're located, but your footings may or may not be deep enough. If you're in an area where the ground freezes in winter, make sure they are deep enough that they're below the frost line. Otherwise your deck is going to move. If you read your local building codes they will...

I'm a fan of HF for a lot of things, but for something like this I think you'd be better served with a more mainstream brand. My choice would be Swann. They specialize in security systems like this, and they aren't any more expensive. Go somewhere like Amazon or MCM Electronics and search for...

Or an end box between two 44s. That's about 9 feet of toolbox. :beer:

In my area a working one of that size/hp can be had for $300 to $600.

I remember in the 60s I could go into JCP and buy underwear, tools, and a gun in one trip. Times have changed a bit.

U.S. General was an independent company before HF acquired them. I don't personally remember HF ever selling a SS toolbox, but they may have. Or this could be a box from before U.S. General became a HF brand.

Doesn't matter what gauges are on the regulator. The regulator will still allow pressures that are very dangerous with acetylene, and those dangerous pressures will not show up on the gauge. If you have a regulator that allows you to set an output pressure of 400psi, putting a lower reading...

It doesn't matter what size the tank is. What matters is how much air the compressor delivers. If you're consuming 15 cfm and your compressor is delivering 18 cfm, you will never run out of air, regardless of tank size. If your compressor is delivering only 10 cfm, you will be constantly...

About 2 bucks apiece for wall-hangers.

The best prices and selection I've found have been at Amazon. Better yet, the stuff is delivered to my door. Just had a 50 foot spool of Gates vacuum hose delivered last week for 16.79. Fittings, tees, caps, they have it all. For a tester, I like the HF metal version better than the plastic...

Last time I checked, a new Curtis CA series 5hp, single phase, 80 gal with intercooler was north of $3000.

It's kind of like floor space. I don't know anyone who has built a shop who didn't later say "I wish I had made it bigger." I have NEVER known anyone who said "I wish I had made it smaller." The additional $750 is a pittance in the overall scheme of things. My current shop has 14' sidewalls...

Through bolts for the motor housing should be an easy find at any electric motor repair shop. As for your "score," You = 1 Us = 0 Now just put some real 10" wheels on it and you be da man. (Can you tell I'm jealous?)

And then there are those who do have a garage that is so full of stuff they are unable to use it. BTDT!

I think I got mine at the local welding supply.

I try my best. Once in awhile I start slipping, and I start shaking and sweating and think I'm becoming all warm and fuzzy, even civilized. It takes something like this to get me back on track. Besides, somebody needs to say what a whole bunch of people are thinking but are too polite to...

It would appear the OP hasn't got a clue what he's talking about. I've seen and used a whole lot of vises in my life. I've never seen one with a square handle. You know the old saying, that there's no such thing as a stupid question? It ain't true.

300 pounds is half the weight of the entire cart. For the sake of argument, let's say you take out the entire left bank of drawers. That's 5 drawers. There is no way, even in your wildest dreams, that those drawers weigh 60 pounds each.

Look at the difference in size and shipping weights. The Masterforce is 640# vs the Montezuma 320#. That says a lot right there. It would be nice if both sites gave the actual weight of the toolbox though. The Masterforce is 4 inches deeper and almost 9 inches taller. But that alone isn't...
