Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

You’ll be a fine whiskey/wine when you emerge!

 

Morning all

Could probably have slept another 2 or 3 hours today, but duty calls. So I will answer it..sleepily

 

Good morning friends, hope each and everyone of you have an awesome day

 

My dad got a set of four of Pat's books when I was a kid, probably mid to late 80's. I remember him sitting in his recliner reading them and busting out laughing

 

Yes I did for two years after high school. Those pictures Rusty keeps sharing make me cringe, and he's not getting paid to be under there

 

Just saw this listed for sale, it's got a lot happening for $300

 

Those Shop Smiths are cool

 

A friend tried to sell me his Shop Smith a while back, for a good price. I already had most of the tools, just individually. His Shop Smith just sat in his shop, gathering dust. I passed because I did not need two lathes, drum sanders, band saws. I probably use my little sanding center more than any of the other tools.

 

niceeeeeee

 

That's a good deal.

 

Now that is a new one!

 

I got this little sander at a garage sale last week, $25.

 

I had one before. Nice if you have space for it..

 

Hmmm, and here I thought Master Craft was just a tire brand

 

I thought they only made ski boats

 

We have one at work and I have one at home, they use a 1" X 42" belt and get used a lot.

 

At the old job we had a Porter Cable B3 sander built in the 1940's.
It was a massive cast iron 3 phase machine with a 10" wide belt.

Like this:



You could tilt the table and also rotate the entire sander head to be horizontal.



It probably weighed close to 300 pounds.

 

Canadian Tire is a store here, tools, automotive, housewares, camping stuff etc. Mastercraft is their inhouse brand. If you can't find it labelled as Mastercraft, you probably don't need it.

 

Good morning Shane and crew. Have a great Tuesday!

 

Had one for a while took up space did a lot of things. Has a drill press also. Didn’t have the shop I do now.
