Card Storage Boxes

Let's say you play a collectible card game.  Naturally, if you do, you will collect many cards.

I made a box to hold cards!



The front and back are oak flooring from Re-Store.  The top and sides and dividers are 1/4" click flooring that I got ages ago.

Auction Find: Unipower UP-400 Vehicle-Mount Welder


This thing is terrifying.


Near as I can tell, it's a box you put inside your car, which bypasses the voltage regulator, allowing you to use high-voltage DC.

Also it is welded shut.


In one of my auction lots there were ten of these things in a basket.

Auction Find: Bandsaw

I bought a bunch of stuff from an estate sale auction.

The biggest item was this ~ 1976 Craftsman 12" band saw / sander.



Model 113.24350c: I think the c suffix is for Canadian market.

It has a cast iron table!  I think it suffered a fall at some point.  The bolts that retain the bottom bearing have no heads.

Luckily they are 1/4-20 pan head bolts so I can replace them easily.  Might be tricky extracting the old ones, we'll see.

I'll need to pick up the blade guard (part no. 69044) and lens (69025).
