What I did today...

[eschoendorff]

Made a rolling base for my bench grinder. It's an old USA Craftsman 8". That thin will tear off an arm if you're not careful...

I just used junk wood that I had lying around. Oh... and does the US even manufacture fasteners anymore? I had to settle for these Chinese lag bolts and I sheared three of them (with a 1/2" ratchet... not the impact gun!) today! And these were 3/8" lag bolts!


Oh... and since we were posting our tool boxes a while back, I thought I'd share a shot of my crappy garage....

I'm diggin the garage. It gives me that Red Green possum lodge feel (in a good way).

Believe me, it's not what I originally wanted, but beggars can't be choosers (so to speak)... I was just happy to have a garage! But I gotta say that the ambience is really growing on me....


It used to be dark as hell in there, but I have 6 shoplights and 2 150 spot lights hanging from the rafters now.

It's not such a bad place, esp since I don't use my stuff to make my living....
