What Did You Buy Today?

[acruxksa]

I bought myself and my wife a vacation in the Bahamas. . All part of the grand plan to eventually end up with a surface grinder and shaper.

Also recently received some multi fix tooling.

Just bought that 2 pack of porter cable grinders a tractor supply. Travelled a bit, for the last one.

Also received the grizzly stand I showed for my son for Christmas. Funny how after seeing it, he said he would like a roller stand, so I got the 4 in 1

After seeing @Weldingrod1 's Loc-Line Vacuum Hose & Nozzle, I decided I needed them for my Mini-Mill. Used my Zoro Cyber Coupon and got an assortment that I finally put together along with a strong, low-cost magnetic base from Amazon:


OK, the setup is not quite up to my normal level, but it does work; I just need to make some refinements and figure out how to swap nozzles efficiently (these big Loc-Line hoses are buggers to connect, and since I use 1-7/8" vacuum hose I need extra adapters).

A tool chest to keep my milling tools in:

And what I hope and believe to be a thread measuring mic (someone please confirm that!).

I assume to use this, you measure the entire threaded bolt using a regular mic, measure using this mic and then minus one from the other to get the depth of the thread?

Pretty sure that is a staged photo... those suckers never stay in place when you open the box...

Haha. They’re inset in to cut outs in the foam so can’t move.

No that's not how it works.
At least not with mine. You look up the pitch diameter in a book, or online and you match it.
