heres my tool box


bottom roller was given to me.. I sprayed it with truck lining a few years ago.. Came out great.

harborfreight air compressor. Not bad after porting the head, changing the pressure relief valve and turning up the pressure switch.

Got a decent craftsman's 1/2 impact gun new a few years ago. but from sliding the thing on the ground, it aint that pretty. lol

I want to get a mig welder, hydrolic press, and drill press. I still need a bench vice.

gear wrenches all the way...best money i've ever spent on tools... i even use them to undo suspension bolts and these things still work like they did on the day i bought them...
