    Store Bought Outfeed Table

    2 years ago I started moving the Sewing Machine store I inherited. (DIY inheritance at it's best) When we went to HD to grab some lumber to build the work benches and a front counter for the new shop I spotted these, and gave them a try in 3 sizes. They were in stock at the time, and cost was...

    Shopping for another box, this time for camera gear.

    That is part of the reason I want to do this. My lack of space while in CA and splitting my possessions between Nebraska and California for a year left bits and pieces everywhere. Right now it's been upgraded to scattered all over the floor in the spare bedroom trying to figure out what might...

    Shopping for another box, this time for camera gear.

    Not a bad set up from the sounds of it. I do have a pair of Pixma Pro 100 Printers and a flat bed scanner that will most likely be coming home as well. I have these on a cheap Ikea shelving unit right now so I didn't really think about incorporating them in to the same piece. I've looked at...

    Shopping for another box, this time for camera gear.

    I thought about that but then I switch to the opposite problem of drawers that are way too deep. If I could find the industrial version of this...

    Shopping for another box, this time for camera gear.

    In recent years my camera and lens collections have grown beyond wanting to throw them in a bag in the closet when they aren't in use. I've gone over a few storage ideas but I keep coming back to a tool box for this. Although that could just be one of my other obsessions creeping in to the...

    Found an excuse to fill a new tool box....

    A quick background: I grew up spending my Saturdays playing in the back of my parents Sewing Machine store in Nebraska. The whole time I said I didn't want anything to do with them. Fast forward to April 2019 and my dad passed away leaving the store, around 600 machines, and a lot of parts to...

    older portable snap on gas analyser?

    I don't want to go too far off topic, but is there a market for older analyzers like this? We have a pair of Sensors Inc Semtech emissions analyzers sitting here doing nothing. We upgraded to Horiba units and just set these aside. If anyone had a use for them, I could see what we need to get...

    Which angle grinder do you like?

    Safety. If you've ever had a cut off wheel in one and had it break, that grinder can rip out of your hands really quick. With a paddle when it does power is gone. I had a switch style version bounce around the work bench before taking a swipe at the inside of my upper leg once. I bandaged...

    Modifications to the HF 4 and 5 drawer service carts - what changes have you made?

    Yes, and no it doesn't grab all the sockets off the bottom either!

    Modifications to the HF 4 and 5 drawer service carts - what changes have you made?

    I picked one up the other day to down size my work box. My original plan was to go tool clips on the lid to hold ratchets and extensions, but then I found these magnetic panels that help me free up a ton of space: More pics here...

    My new Snap on "Tool Box"

    My girlfriend brought home a little gift for me yesterday. Apparently a co-worker of hers has a boyfriend who's dad was a dealer before he passed. Yes of course I asked what else might be hidden away in the garage at home and if it was for sale. In the mean time I moved the box into...

    Help with old Mac box

    I went through many of these problems on my MB1500 a few months back. The slides were not able to be ordered through Accuride since the mounting method was MAC specific. I ordered new slides for the top drawers from MAC but not the large bottom. The lock mechanism is similar to the one in the...

    Should I buy a KRL722

    Figure out what the box will really cost you at the end of those payments. Is it worth that much to you?

    Your Thoughts on Hex Bit Socket Sets

    of the Hex bit sockets I've tried: HF: Cheap cost for a LOT of sizes. I would add these to my box again in a heart beat just to start with wide selection if/when I needed them. I use an 8mm and 3/8 on a regular basis and neither show any wear, but neither have been worked that hard...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    I didn't need them labeled to remember where stuff was, I just thought it would look cool. :lol_hitti I actually set the drawers up as close as possible to my Snap on to help me adjust quicker to this box. If you aren't familiar with the MB1500 the drawers in stock configuration just go small...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    Thanks, I wasn't sure what I would get. Originally I was hoping to be moved in to the box before hand so I could have the drawers labeled, but that was the extent of the ideas I had for it. I never imagined he would go that crazy when I told him there were no guidelines. lol

    Let's see your toolbox.

    After switching jobs a few years back I figured out I didn't need near as mant tools at work for my new position so I switched my home and work tool sets around and brought my Snap on "home". Well after about a year and a half of working out of a 26" (70s era) Craftsman combo and the 4 Drawer...

    Harbor freight tool box.... I know... I know

    I've got two 44s joined together by the 7 drawer end cabinet, and the short locker style end that they once sold on the other end. I've also got a Snap on 722 and a couple of Craftsman 26" stacks from the 70's. At this point the wall o harbor is basically storing mostly consumables, and less...
