Hi addes426 - welcome to HomemadeTools.net :welcome:
MetalMeet is a great site! What kind of tools do you build?
Hi addes426,
Welcome! :welcome:
What sort of tools do you build? Let's see some pics! :cool:
Do you have any projects underway at the moment?

It depends on what I need. My last tool was a sawzall blade with shoulders welded on both sides about 3/16 above the edge of the teeth. I used it to cut into a 2" PVC conduit and not cut into the wire. I'm an electrician and often need odd-ball things. I once made an adjustable jig that sat on a floor jack, for holding and mounting a 3rd member into a rearend. Raised it up with the jack, cranked a jack bold and backed it right onto the studs, worked slick. Other things too, I just never thought about them too much past their use. I I've never taken pics, just used the stuff. I'll have to change that won't I.
Hi addes426, looks like you've got a collection of homemade stuff that the community would be interested in seeing. Welcome to the forums! :welcome:
