My garage is 28x30 and it still is not big enough!

Made this fine leather couch out of the back seat from a 94 Jaguar XJ12. Needed something comfy to sit on out in the garage.

Picked the welder up today. Now it's time to get back on some of my projects.

Got to wire up a 50a 220v plug in the garage now.

I have wanted something better than my small 110v mig welder. Well I went to look at a used 220v lincoln today. The unit looks barely used and was purchased by the guys father in the mid eighties. Does spot and stitch with all kinds of adjustments. The gun is in good shape and a nice size. Not...

I have a direct lift 9,000 pound bottom cable two poster. Bought it for $900 barely used. So far it has been a good lift. Besides the two bikes I picked up to swap front ends between, I havd picked up everything from my mg midget to my 68 D100.

Correction UTC 200

I have an Ungar UTC 600 I think that is the right number but I will check later. It is a station with adjustible temp and a pencil style iron on a very flexible cord. I have owned it over 20 years and it performs flawlessly. I love it and hope I never have to replace it.

The old snap on boxes seem to me like they are made of heavier gauge steel. I have an old kr1000 I bought in the eighties. Nice box.

X2 I have replaced many transmissions over the years and worked on 4 poster wheel lifts and they are not much fun. Trying to pull crossmembers and other components to gain access to the trans can be a real headache. Unless you are working on larger vehicles like dually trucks a two poster is the...

I have a 9,000 lb two post from direct lift. Bought it slightly used for $900 and it works great.

Been building a lot of rears lately so I built a simple 7260 yoke holder out of a washer and piece of flat stock.

Really love my new garage and house. Moved to Newark DE from s.e. PA to escape from the ridiculous taxes. Old garage was 24x24 this one is 28x30 and has a big loft.

Upload error on most of the pics.

Garage is 28x30 with 636 square feet of loft. Has a load bearing wall 11feet from the south side wall so that part of the loft can support some serious weight. It has 100a 220v electric and a lift.

I just bought a homelite 1050 auto with 30" bar and 115cc engine at a garage sale for $25. It needs to be gone over and cleaned but looks like a fun project. If it needs a rebuild I may try to convert it to the newer super auto specs.

Try the tools and machinery section of CL. You may find a goid used one there. Also check if there are any electdic motor shops that rewind them. There is a guy near me that does it but I am on the east coast in the states.

I have their top of the line sawzall, works great so far. Their 5" da sander with about 100 hours of abuse. I would run it for hours at a time. It got so hot I could barely hold it but still going strong. I like their 3" cutoff tool for $10 and the discs seem to tast ok. I buy everything with...

Mine has six 3/4" studs per side holding it to the floor. Electrician is coming on Thursday to run a 100a 220v service to the garage. Only wired for 110v now.

Thanks everyone. I just left my job so all my tools are home too. It is a two post bottom cable so I don't think I will be parking other vehicles underneath unless I have to.

Well I finally have a lift in my garage. I bought it barely used for $900 from a guy who was closing his shop. It is a direct lift 9000lb capacity. I have it levelled and bolted to the floor. I need to get a 30a 220v outlet and breaker today and will be in business!

I was looking at those compressors when I was at harbour freight. The tanks seemed to be as thin a gauge metal as they can use. Other than that I would buy one of those before an oiless model. The oiless ones are super loud. The jump in price to a real quality compressor is probably at least...

My 1/2" gun is a MAC that is basically the same as the IR231. I bought it in '86 and has been in use every day ever since. I had to replace one hammer weight but other than that no problems.

My collar does the same thing tubtar but has not fallen down the shaft yet. Had mine for 10+ years.

I have a mikita die grinder that is like a giant dremel tool. Works fantastic. Ain't cheap though I think they are around $200 now. Might be able to get an off shore knock off cheaper.
