Airtools ftw. Get a compressor, air saw, rattle gun etc...

Any electrical wholesaler should be able to fix you up. Look for say GE Polylux XLR (http://www.gelighting.com/au/products/lfl/12.htm) or Osram Lumilux (http://www.osram.com/products/genera...nt/2_1_1.html). Dunno how much they will be, $4-5 ea?Originally posted by hotgemini
Only other lamps I'd think about would be Sylvania but I'd probably stay away unless you absolutely can't get the above at decent prices.Comment

I don't think the linishing attachments for bench grinders at that expensive are they. For some reason i'm thinking ~$100.Comment

Grinder with a wire wheel on one side and a belt linisher on the other. Single best thing I ever bought.
Plus plumb air through the roof and hang outlets everywhere through the middle of the shed. Then use short whip leads on your air tools.
Die grinder fo shizzle.
Small lathe is unbeatable too, cheap taiwanese is fine.
Drill/ Mill is great too, but blows the budget...Comment

Osram triphosphor 865 daylights for the win. That's what we generally use, depending on where you live i could leave a box of them plus starters lying around.It's all fun and games until someone loses their virginity.Comment

Good sink with hot and cold water, big tub/bottle/whatever of decent handcleaner that cleans your hands and doesn't give you dermatitis...
Rag bin, full of shitloads of clean rags.
Good stereo.
Everything else I'd suggest has been said.I've seen things you people wouldn't believe, and from this side only! The flight of a half-man, half-bird. Dinosaurs nuzzling their young in pastures where strip-malls should be. Cookies on dowels. All those moments lost in time; gone like eggs off a hooker's stomach. Time to die.

Blow the lot on a mill and get the above mentioned tools week by week...
As you say share the bigger stuff around. I was thinking I get a mill and Secoh can buy a lathe, bench grinder with sanding tool, tube bender, MiG, TiG, power hacksaw, plasma cutter, press, Metal folding brake and water jet cutter. Then we are both set......I own a two and a half litre CommodoreComment
