Got the material to make some specialized carts and racking that I need. So I get the fire up the Heliarc for the first time this year..

If you're talking to me, yes, we have had mud. The nastiest, stickiest, gooiest mud I have ever encountered.

We've got a dry (cold) week coming up, so it looks like we will be able to get some grading and backfilling done in the next few days.

Don't forget to show us you new carts...

Didn't get them finished today as I changed plans at the last min. Going to use these wheels instead, so I need to machine some different pads to bolt the wheels to.
Some 1 inch aluminum square tube with angle for the angled shelf and top shelf.
Both of those will have 1/4 aluminum plate with a grid of 1 1/2 holes machined in, and just set down in the angle. They will hold tapered tool holders for the machines.
Might seem a little overboard but the weight adds up quickly.

FINALLY got into our "new" house. Even got to arrange a bit of junk the garage today and took some pics. It has a loooonnnggg way to go still, but its a start. I've got a bench, the lift table's uncovered, and the tool box is accessible!

Looks good, I'd paint it all white before you get everything moved in/placed. It'll be too hard then and the pink will really start to bother you

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Paint the pink!

dorkpunch · 01-10-2010, 05:47 PM

trust me, its on my list of things to do. Unfortunately, I have a feeling that the paint isnt going to stick too great right now. Its been about 5 degrees F the last couple of days, although it did get up to 25 or so today. Spring is on the way!

they say pink is soothing.

I say it'll be a source of humor for you and your buddies for years to come!

crosscountry · 01-11-2010, 07:26 AM
