With the lights at night your whole garage is highlighted.
They look cool but I don't like to attract attention to my stuff inside.
Who knows who is driving around at night checking things out.

Agreed but my shotgun is always ready for that foolish person.

Taken minutes ago. Just installed the beginnings of halfway decent lighting in there two weeks ago. Since I wasn't using it to work in it got cluttered. I'm still getting it sorted out. It's so nice to be able to do some projects after dark though. Before only had a two bulb T12 fixture in the back center.

Silverback51,
Looks like a Jet Mill I see there. Any more pics, projects produced. I think I have the exact same setup, but I haven't used it yet. Bought it used from a friend who upgraded to a Bridgeport.

Right now the only pictures I have is of a couple video camera mounts that I have done.





I have used it for a bunch of little projects on the car. Bored a stainless steel sleeve for the clutch slave cylinder to take it from 1.00 bore to .875 bore so it had more stroke. Made up some new aluminum 7075 solid frame mounts for the sway bars to tighten them up. Also made up some split collars for the sway bars to keep them from moving from side to side. As soon as I get the car up in the air, I will get some pictures of them in place.

For the most part I have been very satisfied with the mill, however I'm thinking of upgrading also. Set ups on a knee mill are much easier to maintain.

Holy mother of excess!!! :shocking:

Now, what professional sports team was it you said you played for? :lol_hitti

Seriously, you should start your own thread with interior pics. Many of us would really like to see it.

My humble contribution... Still got to do somethings about the floor. Its a work in progress, but some wall cabinets to get the stuff off the shelves and out of the roller carts, a floating workbench, a neon clock, and a few posters should get it close
