Aside from all the basic hand/power tools, these are my pride and joy:

Hobart MIG Welder - 200 Amp


Lincoln SquareWave TIG Welder - 180 Amp


Old Radial Drill Press, Dirty but works great


1941 South Bend Heavy 10 Lathe, holding me over til I finish rebuilding my other Heavy 10


Seiki Vertical Mill, still need to get some tooling for it

After breaking 2 craftsman ratchets and 1 metacarpal last week i felt this was a justified expenditure. It has such a short stroke. giggity

Harbor Freight?

Thickness gauge. I'm not a machinist - so this will be fine for my needs of measuring thickness of plastics and what not. (already have digital calipers, but these can measure things that calipers can't)

Here is my CFA pallet Jack I picked up for $100. I should be able to make some money on it when I am done with my project.

Nice. Same design and logos but mine is a little smaller. Painted it Kanosha red and put new trim on it. I use it for my home tools. My work box is a monstrosity.

Picture of box? I think I have the same one. Had a bunch of receipts from 66-68 in it.

Mine does not have the middle section. This box has been professionally restored.

So this morning I get up and check garage journal, I have a pm. Odd I don't get many there, guy wants to buy my 1966 Snap On KRA500 two piece box.

This was Snap On's first official big box, they are not common at all and are consider a collectors item. The guy works for Joe Gibbs racing so he says. Now the question how much should I ask for my ancient box?

Was thinking just a simple 1K. I bought it 13 years ago dirt cheap when I was turning wrenches at local FBO. Kid that was attending school with me wanted a KRL1022 now that he had graduated from A&P school.

I have two boxes so the sale will offset the last box I bought.

Thoughts?
