Garage Shop: Tools

The compressor at work was having issues a few months ago. The tank had 8 GALLONS of water in it.

 

Ice in a compressor is worse than water lol

 

Canada problems...

 

only in spring , fall and winter

 

These Vulcan heavy-duty welding cabinets are so nice to hold all your welding and fabricating equipment. Very sturdy and well made. I originally had the Lincoln on a small single tray cart. I picked up that Harbor Freight Titanium plasma cutter and am glad I upgraded the cart at the same time to hold everything instead of just throwing the plasma in a corner somewhere. They also have a 20% off coupon for the cart.

 

So you are saying don't have 20 Zep bottles filled with Alcohol, Water, Leak Detector, ATF/Acetone mix, phosphoric acid, etc etc? I legit almost sprayed the alcohol bottle to put out a welding fire the other day

No front end's only rear ends...

Few more horses to add to the stable. I figure if I buy a few a week I won't notice the massive sinkhole in my bank account






Added this after seeing @cynicalrider setup, figured it will come in handy at some point so why not haha.

 

I don`t mind a few hours to visit friends that might be a Tad far

 

There's a cold beer on tap and a reclining couch as well

 

The dream, looking to build a similar garage within the next couple years.

Let me know if you need an exorcist







This i a joke btw, I am not funny, and Im not sure why I saw faces in your windows

 

Appropriate screen name is appropriate.

(I actually don't see faces, but I lack imagination )

 

I saw the safety wire thing on his IG story and thought the same thing as well. I don’t NEED it....but it is cool.

 

REAL FRIENDS convince their other friends that they need to buy more tools.

 

This

 

Yes i need to wipe my box down (thats what she said) but i added new emblems on my Kobalt box

 

+1 internet point..looks great

 

after a couple hours trying to safety wire 2 bolts on our helicopter today, I'll pass on seeing safety wire at home effing engineers and their dumb designs

 

What bird were you working on? I have put hundreds of feet of safety wire on chinooks over the years. I still keep safety wire in my box at home, it anything else, it’s handy to hang brake calipers and other parts with.

 

60's, starboard bridge (forward flight control support) tie rod. got a whopping 1/4" of room between the edge of the bolt and edge of the tie rod to pull it out without breaking it. fun times. engineers....

 

Here is my setup. I was inspired by many of your awesome setups. Moved to our present house a little over three months ago and decided to leave my workbench and all to the owners of my old house and start new rather than bring it all over. Wife gave me free range of the garage but all she asked for was one corner for her fitness equipment. Still plenty of room for two Toyota’s.
