Yeah I was bored this morning and tired of hunting for things in my garage whenever I'm working on something. Also I've added a few things in the last couple weeks and had to re-arrange to be sure there is still enough room for vehicles...While I'm rambling I'll review a couple of tools I really enjoy having, first of which is the the Bone creeper. Nice big wheels that roll over cords, rocks, etc. instead of pushing them or just plain stopping. The wheels bolt on with 4 bolts so spinning around doesn't cause them to loosen like the cheap creepers either. Only complaint is that sometimes the humps for the wheels get in the way when you are cramped under a vehicle. Overall, much better than your standard cheapo creeper. Another review: Craftsman shop vac - indisposable in my opinion. I like the automotive type filter with pleats that is easy to clean. Much better than the cheapo sheets of paper on the lesser vacs.
Never enough storage racks. Finally broke down and spent some money for a can rack (ordered another today) that holds 6 spray cans. Something like $14 plus shipping from Racor.
Towel rack is simple to make: all 1/2" black pipe, floor plate w/4 screws to hold it up attach 3" pipe then a T fitting. Attach 12" pipe to each side of T and a street elbow to keep the towel roll from falling off. Cost under $10. A couple more shots of my garage in AZ:
Anyone else have product reviews or handy shop tips to share?
