[DatsunLover]

plasma cut a shop tool organizer for work...made the same thing basically for welding tables, one blue and one yellow for Table identification.

Good job !

All my Screws, old razor Blades, Nails, sharp metal burs, old Sawzaw Blades go into this can instead of poking holes in my Trash Bags... Love Love this Can!!!

Had Too much parts Storage so decided to make it a Hardware Storage Space.

 

[DatsunLover]

It might not seem like much but I CANT live without my Swinging AirReel!! I made a pivot and swing arm to Mount the Reel inside but with the Door open it will swing outside and Air up anything on that side of My Garage!!!

Is that a chair or a urinal? And- it is right next to a stove. You don't have to leave the garage.

 

[DatsunLover]

Haha!!! its a chair found on trash day but YOUR right, it looks like a Urinal!!!

Bought the cheepo Harbor Freight sandblaster but No Red in my Garage!!!!

Rolling small Paint Booth
Started with a cart like this and added some height and some sides I had laying around, slapped 2 fans on the back and a power strip. Keeps me from Overspraying everything in my garage!! Not perfect but it helps...

Paint booth is nice but I would really look at explosive proof fans

 

[DatsunLover]

Thank you guys, I don't have the budget for Good fans at the moment..I have fire extinguishers Everywhere for my dumbness...

Digging the paint booth. I've been thinking of something similar with a turntable inside as well. Nice job.

Hopefully the paint will not make it past the filters.
Datsun will have to let us know it the fans change color.

But hey, it's way better than most of us do with our spray can work.

I color code these for my older buddies at work. I loved it so much I do my own and its made things easier and faster!!! Can you find them???

 

[jarhead]

some great ideas!

 

[DatsunLover]

I do Locker repairs on occasion for my work so I made this cart to help keep my tools organized and together. Also saving my back by keeping my most used tools at arms reach...

 

[twistedracing]

Very cool stuff DatsunLover!!! I need a couple of those things in my shop!!

You want to make another one?

Fantastic idea on the fuel can. I'm currently using a paste wax tin I cut a slit in, but I like the size on this and how secure the lid will be for disposal. Plus as you said, other things like screws and larger blades will fit. Will definitely be adopting this solution!

I had some time in the garage Sunday, about 2 hours. Cleaned up the garage some and made a holder for my Combo Squares!

 

[DatsunLover]

Twistedracing, you will probably get these and many more in your shop soon!!!

Flatcapped, yes any container will work but I got lucky in my choice as sawzaw blades just do fit and razor blades slide in also...

PCMusicGuy, sorry I little busy at moment but I will post a helpful idea here soon on how to make your own with junk stuff laying around!!

Some very nice ideas in this thread!! Thanks for the tips! Wondering ... can you lock the swinging arm of the air reel in the innie vs. outie positions?

 

[DatsunLover]

I did not make it Locking, I thought the same thing but it hasn't been a problem, the hose pulls out easily enough that the reel doesn't move but couple inches in the direction I want it anyway.


Here is my Air tool cart, I can roll it around my shop to get it closer to my work area.

^^ That is very nice and convenient!
