    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    very nice work. Really like some of your paint jobs. model A is looking good. I like how you inset the doors I did the same on a 31 Im working on along with many other other mods. And as far as the 55 goes its a work of art, came out very well in my opinion. Keep it up.

    Building a new slide hammer attachment - where to get threaded adapter?

    I welded the screw attachment to the vise grips, comes with the body shop slide hammer not the puller slide hammer, because I didnt use it. but I think tig welding a few nuts together would work ok.
