I welded some bucket teeth on my backhoe and than pushed up a brush pile to test them. The teeth were a game changer to push brush. IMG_1064.JPGIMG_1065.JPG

. Nope just fire engine red paint for the trim and slatwall.

I was thinking a manly gunmetal finish. :laughing: Or good old battleship gray, like I used on the HF dolly that the cabinet with the vacuum pump for my lathes rolls around on. :)

Aside from the obvious benefits I’ve also found the teeth to be a useful depth gauge with spreading loose material over a firmer one.

That makes sense!

This morning I moved my dry cut saw bench into its new resting spot. Efficiency and saving time seems to a common trait among us old retired guys.

Must be due to that “ hurry up and die” attitude.

I ran across a 46" square piece of 1" thick aluminum that I bolted to the top of two of the HF Titan work benches. Thought that it would be a decent surface for tacking up fab projects. I plan on drilling and tapping holes in the aluminum for fixtures and bench top tools. Will add some shelves between the two cabinets and fixing a 4x4 electrical box extension cord to the side somewhere. The vise is held down with 4-3/8" bolts threaded into the plate.
