@tjsahara00  upgrading to a larger tool box is always a good idea! Especially if you buy a box bigger than you need.  Then you get to buy more tools to fill it up properly.   [cheers]

Almost done with this cooler stand.

Larry- is that pallet wood?
Looks like it. I just grabbed 15 from a buddy to have for future projects. I like the cooler table idea for them.

Over the years I've accumulated all kind of tools in different small tool boxes. Time to get them organized so I bought a Husky tool box....
51" wide 64'' tall with the lid closed
I saw this item on the 'black friday sale' list.  If you paid more than $798, you might be able to get some money back.

Yes sir.  I added a bottle opener, catch bin, and handle.

my chipper just got delivered yesterday, in time for the cold weather and no desire to put it together and use it now.  Not sure if that is a project or not, clean up project.

Which chipper did you go with? 

Mine has been a beast, but changing the blade is a PITA.

I am getting started on my lean-to projects.  One going on the side of the shop (12ft x 40ft) and one going on the back of the shop (13 x 28ft).

The power company left me a telephone pole awhile back. I chopped it into thirds and that is my posts for the back lean to.  That saved me about $150 as 6x6s run $50 a piece and making laminated posts is about the same.



Here is the boss man inspecting my post hole digging.

I hope you took the opportunity to show boss man how to use a post hole digger and have him try it out.

I bought way more than needed, well that isn't true, could use more.  But a HD 45% off sale made me do it.

heck, its still on sale.  https://www.homedepot.com/p/Brush-Master-5-25-x-3-75-in-445cc-Gas-Powered-Self-Feed-Chipper-Shredder-with-Unique-Innovation-3-in-1-Discharge-Gloves-Goggles-CH10M20/311938217

hoping I can use it for a couple years and not loose too much value.  Or just start renting it out soon.
