You only need two tools in life – WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn’t move and should, use the WD40. If it shouldn’t move and does, use the Duct Tape.

Funny how tool collections always seem to grow! I'm wondering how long before I'm planning an addition to my new garage.

I have just added a totally new capability to my shop that is long overdue for diving related DIY projects… a light industrial sewing machine off E-bay. $130.

Now that you mention it, I got a sewing maching in the lathe deal. I was going to strip it for parts......but maybe I need to reconsider that.

I know a little less than squat about sewing, but I am told that a machine with a walking foot makes sewing heavy material and multiple layers easier; especially for those like me with no sewing skill. Mostly I wanted to sew ballistic fabrics, Nylon webbing, and 2-3mm Nylon-2 foam Neoprene.

I was just thinking today about getting onto craigslist and hunting for an industrial sewing machine to help cut down the amount of money I'll be spending on having someone else make the custom bikini top and cockpit cover for my Locost 7 along with some scuba goodies
My shop/ garage is rather full up right now, I have a Bridgeport Series 1 mill with Accurite DRO and X, Y power-feeds; a 1940 LeBlond Regal 17x36 with 2J collet chuck and a 3-Jaw chuck; Thermal Dynamics True 52 plasma cutter; Miller Synchrowave 350-LX TIG and Millermatic 212 MIG welders, plus gobs of tooling for the mill and lathe, 60-gal air compressor, and many many other tools plus a bunch of clamps all in one stall of a 3-car garage :shocked2:
Tools are a crazy addiction
