Hello, I'm new here. although I've hung out as a non-member reading posts for a few months. Be warned, this post is long. :shocking: So, what prompted me to sign up for a membership and post is my 25-year-old compressor blew up last week. It shattered the connecting rod on one of the pistons, and of course, you can't buy replacements for those anymore. It was a Craftsman 60 Gal. upright two-cylinder single-stage oil-less compressor that I inherited from my father. It worked well for my needs for all the years I've had it. There wasn't really an air system, just a quick disconnect on the compressor where I hooked up what I needed. I could probably have one of...
When the HF 44" was on sale last month, I grabbed one, along with one side cabinet and one side locker. Picked up a piece of counter top (6') at Menards for $45.00, and ended up with this. Actually, for the money, a very nice set and works for me well.

Struggling though to figure out a good way of being able to store the blow moulds neatly. Normally i would just pull the tools out and put them in Kaizen foam in a drawer one of my tool boxes.

Hi all;
I could use some thoughts on how to use this wall case in the garage. I just won it at auction ($2.08), it is 8' x 4' x 6". I just built a tool storage cabinet this summer that opens up to 8' wide (two bifold doors open up 2' on either side), so I have no immediate need for hand tool storage.
I don't envision using the glass, but making other doors, either sliding or hinged. I could mount it vertically against the wall and put in shelves to store things like spray paint.
Thoughts? (click the pic to make it bigger).
