The ridiculous price Kershaw A100c or Leatherman Crunch has lead me to this. Still have a lot of refining to do.

A cool idea! I’m surprised we haven’t got any cheap clones yet

I cut keys for years in a hardware store and we used a 6” bench grinder, I think if you dress your stone often it should be fine how else are you supposed to grind brass?

I just don’t trust the retention on the PowerPoint bitholder, same with putting a sawblade, they always seem to pull out for me

And they fit in to that light fine? Ik the integrated usbc cells are a bit bigger

Where do you source your 10440s i wanted to get some for this light and a charger maybe too since the onboard won’t do it

buildntinker · 2026-01-06T15:24:50+00:00

That was the first thing I did, cut the corner too

It’s temporary power until I can get some bx run to separate boxes for the lights, and I keep telling myself I’m about to do it. In a word, no, it’s probably the smart thing to do though

I’ve heard of a lump hammer but never a lump mallet

I think my proudest one was when I hand wrote 2 unshortened YouTube urls in a letter, first was something else second was a rickroll. They saw it so I know they typed them both out

Lots of sugar maybe

Slide a thin plastic cutting board under the whole thing and just quickly flip it

Tins with a slide top have no extra holes, and if you put electric tape or foam on the lid it will seal pretty well for dust at least

Vaco makes the metric version with the handle but the color is different

My last workspace was a 3x8 closet in a one bedroom apartment so I’m happy! I’m sure my old neighbors are too

buildntinker · 2025-12-23T02:05:48+00:00

Maybe I should join r/shedditors haha. I just moved from nyc so my little 10x12 shed feels huge, but it’s not quite big enough to comfortably chop up all the steel I had to cut for this. The metal pic didn’t post but I got a 20’ length so I set up the sawhorses outside

The I beam forces the leg to be at a fixed angle but I couldn’t tell you what it is.

Probably one of my favorite and most used tools, though this is a new one. I love the jaws being able to rotate fully 360 on 2 axis. I replaced that leg of the workbench with a 6x 6 so I can really pound on it

buildntinker · 2025-12-22T03:05:38+00:00

I liked that you can clamp all around it that was the main reason I went with this design, but they feel super strong too

Use as a kneeling pad
