Replacing casters on the toolbox I got from my friend... great toolbox but it has some lousy/cheap casters...



And dusted off the MIG welder and got the brackets for the air compressor cooler done... My welds are not done until I use the grinder, so shut up!! I welded and it helded...

I had a couple of friends come over and we got started on tearing into the HBM.

tearing into the HBM

Looks like a lot of work! The guy with the needle scaler must have drawn the short straw. I've got a needle scaler to chip hardened glue from the clamp rack. The Navy used them when the paint build up got past specs. Thick paint is a fire hazard.

Why because the paint will burn?

I drew up some brackets for a lathe holder wall mount utilizing 80/20 aluminum extrusion. I also designed and printed the lathe tool holder, holders. (Is that grammatically correct?)
I may have to do another mount above this one, but for now, it holds all my tool holders.

Hot paint forms a flammable gas!

Good job, they look great!
