How to build a file rack?

Indeed!!!

I have files hanging beside each or ON each machine that I would normally use a file. Works well, not pretty though.

Same here. Lots of work benches..but little free space on them

This past week...I emptied a 10x20 storage unit that an old friend had gotten past due on...some $800 or so dollars behind. He was simply going to take a few items and walk away.

So I told him we would get it empty if I could have any/everything I wanted, which was most of it and he agreed.

I didnt realize..that he was into art.... .blacksmithing..shooting..light machining...survival....etc etc. So for 3 days..we emptied the damned thing out and moved it to a temporary location until this coming week when I could bring down a trailer, load it up..and take it home. Thats changed to at least 2 loads..maybe 3. Everything from gunpowder to vacuum pumps, to a 3' stack of gunsmithing books to 500 lbs of actual wrought iron..and the forge(s) to heat it with...and wooden block planes to body hammers to decent axes..on and on and on....

He didnt buy much from Harbor Freight either. Makita, Delta, Ryobi, Millwauki, Juki (2 industrial sewing machines..and (4) sergers....endless list of Stuff. Lots of it will go on Ebay...some will be offered here..some of it will remain with me... like the 4' tall stack of blacksmithing books (and armor and gunsmithing books) and the (2) anvils....and the....

So I appear to have even less room for a period to come.

The methodology of the left has always been:

1. Lie
2. Repeat the lie as many times as possible
3. Have as many people repeat the lie as often as possible
4. Eventually, the uninformed believe the lie
5. The lie will then be made into some form oflaw
6. Then everyone must conform to the lie

Don't forget to include extra for taxes, and shipping & handling. Those fingerprints on the goods don't get there by themselves, ya know.

True indeed. I recently rebuilt the hydraulic vari-drive components on that lathe. Clausing wanted $55 for the parts and $25 shipping.

The parts were O rings...6 of them. And would fit into a cell phones battery well.

I picked up a proper set of O rings, square profile, at a hydraulic shop in Bakersfield for $5...and they tossed in a complete extra set for free.

Clausing must have machined there $55 o-rings out of the skin of a newborn for that price.

Peanut butter and chocolate. I always keep some on hand.

Always.

It is all the documentation, to verify that these here O-rings are truly Original Equipment Manufacturer's O-Rings. You are not buying just nay O-Rings, you are buying "Clausing Supplied O-Ring"(tm, pat pend, nil obstat.) Sort of like how stainless steel parts double in price when the word "Marine" is added to the description.

Plus the shipping and handling. And the secretary's time to personally type up the invoice.

A half dozen large jars and 5 lbs of chocolate is enough to start with. White, dark, and unsweetened for cooking. Just don't get your chocolate in her peanut butter! ;-)

I keep Reese's peanut butter cups (& variants) in my school pack. Cause by the end of the day, it has been a long day. Makes her happy, and that's what it is all about.

Borderline - but there are few things more important than Chocolate.

There is some decent sugar free chocolate on the market. I buy the chips at Wal-mart but some supermarkets carry it in the baking supplies.

Walmart also carries Pillsbury Moist Supreme Sugar-Free Devil's Food Cake mix. Absolutely delicious, and only $1.82. It's my goto dessert.

I don't hve a working oven at the moment, and won't till I have someone run some new wire for kitchen outlets and the stove. I can no longer crawl under buildings due to the scar tissue on my legs.

"Cookie Factory" - find one at the second hand store (She did).

She's all sorts of table top cookers, seeing as how the stove is a bit ... erratic in tempiture and heat distribution.
