Three of us were wrenching away in my shop last week as my model-a needed a new tranny. While doing so, the topic of hand tools came up. I have a Snap-On socket and screw driver set, but most of my tools are from the Craftsman Pro series. My buddies like to make fun of them…

This is an old post, but one I have been looking for… Mickey used vintage steel kitchen cabinets to build one hell of a work area. I love the idea and would love to see more implementations. Have any pictures? Post them here.

We are getting ready to start a garage makeover in Texas and our first project is to build some work benches. Inspiration is always good and we would love some. Have pictures of your well-built benches? Post em here!

Squashing a rumor here… Word on the street is that Sears is ending their lifetime replacement warranty on all their tools.

Sears has not and does not plan on ending their lifetime warranty. Thank god.

For most of us, having a computer in the garage is simply out of the question. For others, it’s a luxury to live by… This incredible case mod showed up on the H.A.M.B. today… Pretty damned cool.
