Well, after spending a bunch of time with a detailed post, I switched windows to get a picture and it's all gone! So check out all of the heavy duty made in the USA metal cabinets, shelves, carts and desk that I got for free! No way I could afford this quality of new stuff. That desk must weigh 300 pounds and will be my reloading bench. Everything except the workbench and MDF cabinet was free. The small size file cabinets are a neat size. It's a mess now, but it should help to organize my new metal shop. Hopefully it works this time.

You do indeed ****. Nice score! Love the tanker desk, although it would look better in my garage! How did you score all that stuff for free? Maybe you should bring it down here to Sac for "storage", as it's always so wet and foggy up there, not to mention what that salt air does to the metal.

As far as losing stuff you typed here when you switch between windows - it's happened to me and I was quite irritated. My solution is to highlight everything and copy it before switching windows. If it's gone when I come back I just paste...

Yes, you ****.
When I'm writing more than just a few words I go to the " go advanced" button just below the quick reply box. If I have to go to another place to get a pic or something, I can use the back button to find what I've been writing.

It was a little bittersweet, the company that my mom worked for for 18 years consolidated with one in Oregon and closed its doors here. She has only a few more years until retirement, so it was kind off a drag, but she found a new part time job and is enjoying the extra time off. Should be especially nice since my dad retires on Friday! I could have gotten even more stuff, but didn't want to be too greedy and didn't know how much I actually needed. My wife has her eye on the small file cabinets for canning jars and canned food.i might give her one or two for the attached garage. It is kind of funny, my mom said that the boss said " I don't want any of that junk", but after she told him I was going to use it in the garage to store tools and such he all of a sudden wanted stuff. Good thing that she already had her name tagged on my stuff!
As far as losing the post, I thought about copying it, buy it would be overwritten when I copied the pictures. I ended up just posting it and then editing the thread to add the pics.

Great stuff!

Also, if you would go back and hit return between the photos your post would be much easier to read. As it is I have to scroll sideways to see the text and photos.

Oh yeah, that's a definite "you ****!" Your garage now looks like a Staples store!
Also I am a big fan of the opening new windows idea, I have 51 windows open on my HTC One right now! :D
