Got these diamond hole saws for glass so I could drill a hole in that mirror and then install the clock. It worked really good. I pushed too hard and it cracked a little around the hole but was able to cover it up. Next time I'm gonna go a little slower and it will be fine. You have to keep a little water on it while you drill too. There's videos on YouTube that show you how to use them.

Had one for a few years it is great.
It is a hydraulic flaring tool, brake line, gm fuel line. You can get dies to do 37 deg. fittings and tranny lines. definitely a cool tool!!!

I've got an older but solid Wilton vise, but i need a jaw/screw kit. Tried looking it up with the numbers on it but didn't have any success. Anyone by any chance a Wilton or vise repair expert?

I got a bit of painting equipment. I'm going to try Durabak paint. It is a bedliner that is smooth, or textured. I have ordered some samples of the paint. Comes in 16 colors. I'm thinking dark grey for the body, and texture bright red for the top, and roof.

Bought this pancake hood to help fight the fogging when it's cold. It worked, weighs near nothing, but was a pain, so I moved to the modern age and man this thing is nice.
