    The nailers have a solid purpose built use window. I have a finish nailer in this design of tool only. The structural building side of my brain stepped away from nails in college working in set design, tech theatre… screws are so much more re-usable and adjustable with a screw gun. So if I do a...

    Pallet project I did a month ago for a friends shop. It’s an acoustic suppression box for a very noisy 220V “temporary air compressor.” Once the 3 phase air compressor (blue green colored one) is tested and repaired than, it will get slid into the box and be almost totally silenced. 1) Pallets...

    My setup is no where near that much. I waited and snagged stuff on sale, craigslist and FB-land marketplace as well as auction sites around DFW too. I have a couple that I will be selling when I’m done fixing them.

    :gig 2 1/2 acres is all I have. At one point we had many rescues large dogs that LOVED to dig into stuff… they broke into one of the small 36” compost er’s many years ago.
