So, what solvent do Sharpies use? I've used paint thinner and acetone with some success. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
Bottoming taps are usually shorter. Used for running threads all the way to the end of the hole. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
Epoxy, maybe. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
I can't quite see how the grips are hanging. By the adjustment knobs? Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
The table would come in handy around here. I can't tell how you hung it from the bead roller. Can you show how you did that? Thanks.
Timely idea on the bed winch. Any other ideas on attachment at the front of the bed? I'd rather not drill holes in the bed. Anyone use the stock...
Nice. Thanks.
Cool. Any photos on how you made and use this?
I'd be interested seeing the book when you get a chance. Thanks.
Yet another great idea I could have used many times. What a useful thread this has become!
Maybe some of those issues, roddinron, are because we, as adults haven't provided the correct environment. I, too, had shop classes in the '60s...
Ha! Hadn't thought of that. I've got a bunch of those, too. Guess I was thinking more of quality rather than quantity. :)
Just curious, what effect does this have on the life of the flashlight?
Could you provide more detailed photos on the tap? Nice idea.
They sure cleaned up nicely. And great pipe-frame bench. I could use something like that. Good job.
Very nice. Almost hate to get that dirty. :)
I love this thread. The tool cart reminded me of the pit cart I made a while back out of extra tool boxes, vice, card file cabinet, etc. The tool...

Yeah, but I didn't show the rest of it... :D
When I built my garage, I put four tie downs in the floor, using 1" nuts welded to round tubing with scrap metal rods and such welded to that as...
Great idea. I just reorganized all my scrap metal using old milk crates and buckets for similar types: like round, solid, square, angle. I like...
Nice, indeed. But just because one stores a torch next to towels and aerosol cans doesn't mean its used there. :)
Very cool. Thanks.
Nice idea. Coulda' used one of these over and over. Can we see the inside of that?
Great idea. It gets a little old having to walk around mine when it's not in use.
Great work. When I made mine many years ago, I put the wheels on the bottom of each leg, which makes it difficult to keep it in place. I hate to...
25 ears ago I bought an old beat up vice at an auction for a big box store's auto department equipment. Most of the guys around me were making...
I suppose that's possible. I've been fooled before. :) But looking at it, it could very well be homemade. I thought Snap On used to stamp all...
