[Papa Charlie]

Thank you very much

Got a rolling toolbox and one more workbench table for the new house… now I can organize things a bit better



I only had time to assemble everything and put it somewhere… now to start working on organizing all the stuff…

For example, the drill bit storage is not going there…

On the list is to get a set of those drill bit cabinets.

yesterday we went to the flea market to buy some fleas... we found them.

I bought something I am not going to show... an idiot purchased them on impulse... I get them home and they are not what I thought they were. IDIOT...!!!!

But I did get a few things that are useful. A set of adjustable reamers (made in India) were all new and individually bagged except for 1. They look good. Only problem is they avoid between 9/32 and 7/16 (that's the 5/16 range my 2nd most used size).
A little enco magnet that cleaned up real nice. and a center finder , I'll give to my son for his drill press.

it's funny the little green magnet grabs better than my 175 lb grip Noga on my lathe.

Are the adjustable reamers something you do by hand, or are these able to be done on the machine? Sorry for the rookie question.

these are hand reamers. They are adjustable, so I would tend to avoid running them in a machine. just because the blade may say NO.. and you would not feel it..

I have run hand reamers in power mode and been fine. The regular reamers that have a square for a handle have a taper in the beginning. I used such a taper one time without thinking about that, for a shallow hole. Thinking I had reamed to size, I had not...it caused a lot of issues.
But these will not run under power.

Wish I could find some new tools . Only thing I bought was another 20 gallons of un-ethanol gas . Was out in the garage all day yesterday , every piece of equipment started right up . All the chainsaws , both generators , weed whackers etc .

I find it quite funny . I run up into Pa. for the gas . The price of un-ethanol was $4.79 gallon , 90 octane . The price of mid-grade unleaded was the same price . $4.79 a gallon with added ethanol and only 89 octane . Makes no sense .
