Welder advice, Hand tool Advice Shop Tool.This is a section to ask for help/advice on all your tool questions. What welders work best and what shop tools work best, How to use a welder, and any other tools.
Remember if you have tools for sale they should be put in the classifieds.
My problem is the more you have the more I forget what I do have. And also just exactly where I stowed it. I find when things are out of eye sight I soon loose memory of what and where.
Sounds like this is the only hope for you and me

Awesome ideas. I picked up a ton of tips and it is very cool to see how everybody organizes stuff.
When I first started on this site there was a super cool thread about how to bag/tag/organize stuff when taking a car apart for restoration. Wish I could find it but I changed my user name right after that post and can’t find it now.
I really love your rolling shelves! I wish I had a half dozen of them! Obviously a 'professional' shelving unit that you likely purchased 'surplus'? Or are they available somewhere new now?
Thanks. The shelves came out of a defense plant at least 30+ years ago. My Dad had them all that time and didn’t really use them, but I intend to use the heck out of them!
They are USA made and very heavy duty...I cannot imagine what they would cost to make these days. The brake units on them are massive.
Today I spent several hours looking at commercial restaurant supply houses and tool places looking for various storage solutions. Got a lot of neat ideas.
Going to a huge used office furniture warehouse next week to see what kind of steel storage cabinets they have. Thanks to the ideas on this thread I now know some really cool new ways to store hardware.
Whats wrong with just putting all that stuff in a big ol' tote pan. Then you only have to look one place to find it
Seriously, I DO NOT intend to put ANY pictures of my shop (or obstacle course, whichever you prefer) here are anywhere else. I envy guys that can get organized that well. I never have figured it out.
It seems like it takes every tool I own just to do an oil change
