Yeah it's messy alright, but probably a gold mine sitting in there.

Re: Lets see your messy garage... And Tool boxes

THis was a few months ago. Now I have one semi ofs stamping tools and one semi of machine shop in there. Going to build a mezzanine this summer for the machine shop and dies.

http://www.allmetalshaping.com/showthread.php?t=253


I have two 6' tall craftsmen boxes,and 5 of these stainless hospital hoffman boxes. And one 8'x8'x18" steel lock up poser/air tool box LOADED!





All my hadware and paint supplies are in this little tool box.

Some day I will build my dream car working garage (paint booth, car lift, working bay, and wall of lista boxes.




And it keeps on going, on and on and on , and on.

Just got too much stuff.

Bill

Re: Lets see your messy garage... And Tool boxes



Just sold these two presses to make room.

When does the sickness stop. I guess when I quit learning, or quit inheriting tools.

Its funny how that happens.

It not to bad for a little back yard shop I guess.

But is still one hell of a mess.

Bill

Could add more, but whats the use.

Re: Lets see your messy garage... And Tool boxes

Sure could be more organized.

I inherited two good friends older dream shops and there customers. I worked for both for free for many years, just to help out,and learn. Payment came in the end.

Plus I have an uncontrollable disease for tool consumption.

Sure is good to have good friends.
