Not sure on your intensions & work in the shop, but how about a 24' wide I-beam across with a steal H-beam on each side to support it. Then you would have a lifting beam you could use a trolley on. Maybe bring shelf out more they 4' also. More shelf is always good. I wouldn't rely on chain...

Check craigslist for a used mezzanine structure. Looks like you got a pretty clear area to fit a range of sizes. I have seen them cheap. Might be some cutting, welding involved, but that is where the FUN starts!

Welding is like practicing medicine, every weld is a learning experience. Keep up the good work. When in doubt weld more...

I would flap grind the whole thing, probably take less then an hour, who wants to lug it around to clean it up? If a top is too damage, it can be replaces. The anvil isn't all one piece. The top is a harder metal. Look close you can see the seam.

I would build the largest conventional stick built garage possible. If you are a tool guy, car enthusiast, tinkerer, hobby crafter or whatever, the garage is the most important "toolbox". I don't know anyone who says they wish there garage was "smaller', I know a bunch of guys who say they...

I would say parts to a puller or pusher. Probably a specialty tool for a particular job.

The box is collateral, just sell the box in front of your SO sales man and hand him the $$$ you owe him.

Looks like some space saver type toolbox from an old gas station. 1940's vintage?

One thing I noticed about electric the blade stays sharper longer, not sure if it is coincidence or what...

I would say every 20-25 years is a generation, so every generation may have its own "vintage" obviously some older then others. "Vintage" to many is a "time period". JMO

They look like desirable boxes, good luck on you sale.

OK, two things one mentioned before, the ground clamp should be inspected/cleaned. A dirty, loose or poor ground is a bad ground. Also mig welders like "calm" air, no wind or fans. The shielding gas is easily blown away.

Ok, I would use an old extension ladder. Beef it up where it would hinge to the ceiling and call it done.

Probably depends on what is going up the stairs and how frequently. If you are just going up there once in a while with light stuff wood would probably cut it. If you are going up there all the time with "who know's what" go steel. I would definitely use a landing, maybe a change in direction...

Could be marine use because all brass.

I'm with cobbler, as soon as you get rid of them, you'll need them! If the stuff is good quality American made tools, there is always a market. If it is cheap china/taiwan junk, toss it and be happy. Probably going to break when you need it anyway.

Like anything else, worth more to the guy who "has to have them"...

Sounds like a good time to reevaluate the building. I have seen many guys build a pole barn, then wish they built a traditional one, footings, foundation etc. I don't think it is as much $$$ wise in building, but what you have after the construction is done.
