bepis would be proud. a thousand unused tools on display.

>>1623796
The fuck do you know? Maybe he's a neat freak and he keeps them clea

>>1623825

kek. he doesn't even own the most common type of wrench because it won't look uber cool on his wall.

>>1623825
So clean he polishes all the metal, plasti-dips the handles, and re-annodises & enamels everything.

>>1623777
Studentfag with little space here. Got most of these tools on fleamarkets, and am fixing them up. Planning to teach myself joinery with this.

>>1623777

Into the trash

>>1623843
No, Ryobi! Into the trash!

>>1623825
Me? No... lightly used.

>>1623828
How are you supposed to hang them if they don’t have a closed end to put the hook through?

I'll clean up one of these years I promise

>>1623874
Damn is your shop at the top of a mountain.

>>1623875
No

It used to be used for farming chickens and mushrooms

>>1623828
Those wrenches are shit, I don't own any. I'm a big peg board fan as well. Can always see when shit is put back in its rightful place. Don't have to shuffle through drawers of stuff to find that one tool you need.

>>1623874
>I'll clean up one of these years I promise

No you won't.

I'm glad you have an emesis bowl in your kit, Kevin. I would need it if I was ever in your """workshop""".

>>1623882
Hey man I hoovered up in like February, you don't know my life

>>1623884

Oh and having access to OR supplies is great. Sweet pliers and a never ending supply of shop towels.

>>1623874
Is this where you cook meth?

>>1623777
What happens when you get a new tool? Do you have to tear the whole thing down and start over?

>>1623894
I see you are a man of culture and refinement like myself

>>1623901
Nah mainly just furniture restoration and small crafts my bro

>>1623838
For a starting out this is all you need for simple stuff.

>>1623868
Sunday bmx, odi and fender sticker, well okay if u like that.

Having a huge weeb sticker in you toolbox, holy fuck thats cringe

>>1623899
Why?

Meh, at least the majority of my Craftsman is US-Made. Those torque wrenches were one of the things that were pretty solid when they were US made and the newer Chinese design is like $30-$40 and everybody says the cheap plastic parts break.

>>1623939
That’s more of an /o/ sticker than a weeb sticker. That’s OG WAT Racing girl.

>>1623777
Kill me. Just.... fucking kill me.

And 100% chance of thunderstorms the next 2 days. I will drown myself in this hole i swear to fuck

>>1623828
Faggot. Why the fuck would i use open end wrenches when half the time you need the box.

Neck yourself

>>1623838
Looks nice bro!

Man that looks super fun

Inb4 Assholes Garage guy

>>1623980
Nah they fall off too easily and you have to use 2 hooks for each wrench.

>tfw got a beige workshop dog and now I can’t get the grease stains out of doggo

>>1623828
Open ended wrenches are garbage, only suited for places you can't get a box end in, and spinning bolts that have already been broken loose by the box end.

>>1624189
What’s the deal with the big clamp/vise thing with two handles?

>>1623837
That’s why he doesn’t have time to actually use the tools.

>>1624196
It takes time bro. You should see how dirty my buffer is though.

>>1623777
>plus the rest of a 2 car garage containing one car, one Zuma, and a whole bunch of crap that gets used once or twice a year

>>1624189
Is that sub-panel for your table saw or what

>>1624195
Clamps long things.

>>1623965
original craftsman used to be legit if you didnt want to pay tool truck prices. most of the time the truck guys didn't come by everyday anyway so you could just pick something up after work. i only worked as an apprentice though so i was on a budget

>>1624238
Cool. What is it made of besides wood? Where did the metal bits come from?

>>1624253
They didn’t keep up with the times enough I think. Like their basic screwdrivers, how long did it take them to come out with the TPR grip and diamond tip drivers. The Craftsman Pro brand was really nice and pretty much on par with the tool trucks but they didn’t keep it around long enough. Would be awesome to see Stanley revive that but they will never do it because of their other brands. At least SB&D Craftsman is bringing stuff back to US factories.

Fun fact: I have a Craftsman Pro hack saw from probably mid or early 00’s and it’s a rebranded Bahco made in Sweden, and the Snap On hacksaw in their catalog is the exact same thing.

>>1624195
It's a twin-screw Face vise, similar to a moxxon vise. I use it mostly for joinery on wide panels but it also works for securing bench hooks and table leg jigs. It's made from a weightlifting threaded barbell cut in half.

>>1624271
I think when they moved manufacturing to China companies like Harbor Freight ate up their market share for the price point and quality. Will be interesting to see what SB&D has in store for the brand. Sears used to carry really quality products not just tools. Our Snap-On rep was a racist as fuck southern boy so it left a bad taste in my mouth concerning the brand. Doesn't surprise me that they snatched up a quality product like your saw. It's funny to me to see people taking out loans on boxes worth more than their cars because it says Snap-On.

Your transparent samefagging is quite honestly embarassing, and it isn't fooling anyone. You do it every time someone calls you out. Grow a pair already.

>>1624357
I'm not fucking samefagging you absolute rube.

The thread pitch is how far the screw moves in one revolution, right?

Because the pitch is the distance between crests? I need a thread to move 0.140" with a quarter of a revolution, most likely a multi-start thread, which is fine.

>>1624361
doesn't have to move exactly that much, of course

>>1624362
>>1624361

1.75 tpi (approx)

because pitch = 1 / TPI

0.560 * x = 1, solving for x we get x=1.78571

0.560 = 4* 0.140"

>>1624357
>>1624359
I love how everyone is so asspained by me that they instantly try to say I'm samefagging

I know he’s obviously samefagging but the best thing to do is never reply to namefags. If no one did, this whole site would improve immensely.

Unlike many attention whores, at least you are honest that your goal is be be an asshole. Cool.

>>1624651
When your retinas start to burn?
Nah, but seriously though its good to have lots of lights putting out light from different angles to get light into cabinets etc. Then again you can put basic lighting and use spot lights etc in hard to reach places. You will end up doing that anyways as you might be in front of the light, but lots of lights make use of spotlight rare depending projects.

>>1624671
The best part is I've never samefagged a single time in my life.
Sperg more lol

Thats a lot of room to take up with a stupid radial arm saw.

Kek. The one person who uses their tools less than me. Pic related

>>1624523
That one is oooooold. That flat panel one in my pic has been pretty much the same for decades. Maybe was like late 90s or early 00s and they switched from a metal selector switch to plastic and a lot of people got mad when they warrantied their all-metal USA made ratchet from the 80s and 90s and got a Chinese one with plastic that breaks. Pic related.

>>1624510
It’s pretty close to level, panorama pic doesn’t help. Pic not related.

>>1624743
Not sure if any of the sticker shill fags on /o/ remade them. Those ones were made by Trolly years ago and he never set up a website and BS like the current faggots on that board who use an auto board to sell weeb stickers that are in no way related to cars. Pic somewhat related.

>>1624482
My next doggo, the younger one, is white and grey and brown so the stains don’t show up. Grease looks like another spot. Doggo inside so pic unrelated.

Thank you. It was built out of necessity. I bought this old grow house and only have the basics to work with. I inherited my Dad’s chop saw, sawzall and a box of tools left behind. All the lumber is salvaged from around the property. salvaged

>>1623777
I can garuntee the owner of OP pic either barely ever uses his tools or uses them for 6+ hours a day 7 days a week.

I think the former is far more likely than the latter.

I'm mulling over starting a YouTube thing. The camera can never have too much light.

>>1624690

My goal was to get it to the point that it could safely handle 4x8 sheet stock, because I didn't really have any good way of cutting that down to more practical sizes and was fed right the fuck up with the way I was doing it before (random piece of steel rectangle tube and a circular saw). I considered adding a table saw into the middle of the work table, but the RAS was $50 and gave me trivially easy crosscutting capability as a bonus, so I went with that. So far, pretty happy with it...though I've since discovered that the RAS's reputation is absolutely deserved.

I found these single tube 36” LED lights at Home Depot for like $15, and I think they’re somewhere close to 4000 lumens. Grab some of those. They’re tiny so you can stick them wherever and plug them in as needed.

>Dirty ass Puerto Rican and your Kools

I love how cigarette brands have different stereotypes slapped onto them. And for good reason.

Of course none of the stereotypes are about comfortable middle class people.
They simply include poverty and the underclass.

>>1624209
Post more of your electrical station on the far left of the photo please anon.

>>1625748
You clearly have never worked in a smoke shop. The middle class smoke just as much and have plenty of stereotypes, only real difference is the middle class pretends to be connoisseurs because they buy fancy 'good' tobacco products. The absolute heaviest smokers that I encountered at that job were all middle class comfortable work at home sorts that could smoke all day in privacy without shame.

>>1625850
National statistics say otherwise anon.
Anecdotes are nice, but the trend for upper and middle class has drastically gone down and the poor are smoking at an increasing rate.
Also remember that the working class are not middle class.

>>1625850
>>1625862
it is anecdotal but still
>a company of 200 people
>2 or 3 smoke
>every new rule humiliates them further
>no smoking within ??? feet from the office
>they now have to walk all the way to a shelter that looks like a fucking bus stop in the back of the parking lot
i would also have them wear some kind of a yellow triangle that says "smoker".
fuckers sometimes smoke in their cars. i need to report them

>>1625862
It has gone down because not to long ago almost everyone in the middle class sat in their offices chain smoking, just because it went down means nothing. I worked that smoke shop for 2 years and 90% of the people who go to such a place a regulars, so you get to know them, lots of middle class people seemed to not consider themselves smokers because they do not smoke cigs, they smoke a pipe or cigars, lots of silly logic like that. Ultra Lights would likely not exist if it was not for the middle class, almost exclusively bought by them, Lights have a strong leaning towards the middle class, straights are almost exclusive to middle class hipsters.

>Also remember that the working class are not middle class.
No shit.

>>1625869
What exactly is wrong in your life that other peoples habits bother you so much? Are you the sort that is convinced that the person standing 20 feet away is killing you with their second hand smoke while you breath in the exhaust of the busy street like it is clean mountain air?

>What exactly is wrong in your life that other peoples habits bother you so much?

Statistics.
Im guessing that working the cash register in a smoke shop didnt pay for good insurance did it?

>>1625876
>everyone used to smoke
>laws to curb smoking, and health concerns have greatly reduced smoking specifically in the middle and upper classes

>"just because it went down means nothing", I didnt work in a hood gas station selling poor niggers single cigarettes from behind bulletproof glass, so my anecdotes are more true than national statistics!

>>1626032
>Im guessing that working the cash register in a smoke shop didnt pay for good insurance did it?
Why should a part time job give full health care coverage?
>>1626033
Your use of statistics is rhetoric.
100% of group A smokes
50% of group B smokes
Group A decreases its smoking by 40%
Group B increases by 5%
Group A is better even though they still have a higher percentage of smokers?
You are abusing statistics and simplifying the matter, What if the smokers in the middle class smoke a pack a day and the smokers in the Lower class a pack a week? You can not simplify things that much and use it as proof of anything but your own arrogance.

All I said is that the percentage going down means nothing on its own, which it doesn't, and that the middle class still smokes. Not really interested in class warfare.

>>1623777
my work tool box would literally fit everything on that wall and still have room left over.

>>1625844
It’s just a power supply and some wire. I need me a scope. I really wanted to get one when I got my tax return but instead used part of it to take the girl to Disney and kept the rest.

>>1626071
you're supposed to feed the wire through the holes.

>>1626084
Yeah but all but like 2 are still wrapped in plastic because I bought that thing but end up using other wire I had most of the time. I need to grab more silicone wire, works so much better for small shit.

>>1626056
Cool story bro

>>1626071
You can get an old analog scope from the 90s that will do all you need for less than the cost of one of your trips to HF.

>>1626102
I don’t spend much when I go to HF because I dislike spending more than $50 on any Chinese crap with a 90 day warranty.

The Rigol and Siglent that everybody loves are <$400 all day on Amazon, I’ll get one of those if I really get into it. I haven’t had the fucking time to play with electricity much lately.

>>1626115
>I don’t spend much when I go to HF
And there are plenty of dual channel 60-100mhz scopes in the $50-100. range Do you really have any use for more scope than that?

>>1626122
Yeah but a fancy new one is <$400. If I get into projects enough where I think I need one, I’ll just buy it. Or I’ll buy the GF a $500 necklace and tell her I want the Rigol for my birthday. It’s not that expensive considering the shit you can do with it. Lots of info online about how to use a newer common model too.

I actually searched them on CL but I have no idea in the slightest about what I’m actually looking for, at least I know a brand new Rigol has good reviews.
