Bike stand
I recently bought a bike and wanted to make a stand for it, because i have a little boy (two year old), that loves to be with me working in the garage, and im afraid that he would knock the bike over him. With a stand the bike stays more secure and will not tip over.
And then one made with Steel:
And the finished product:
First i made a prototype out of wood that worked grate:

Welder cart\work table
I am starting to organise my garage, throwing all the old stuff away and making knew stuff.
I will be posting the process and will post pre and post photos.
Today i want to show this welder cabinet /mobile mini work table that i have made out of a old dresser.
The dresser was full of old stuff that went to the trash and with the help of a reciprocating saw a knew cabinet was born.
Here goes the pictures:

Homemade disc sander
Some time ago i had to buy a new washing machine, and before i scraped the old one i took the electric motor off .
With some peaces of wood i have put the sander together, i wantend to make it small and easy to store, it mounts on a bench vise.
The disc has about 25cm diameter (10").
I have never used one before, and let me tell you this is a very nice tool, it will make life easier on a lot of occasions.

crosscut sled and first cut
Made a crosscut sled, with the material´s i had around, it is not super sturdy but it gets the job done. It cuts really square:
Mounting the saw
Ok,
Now i gained the courage to make the cuts to mount the saw. On the inside i chiseled the format of the saw to secure it, and gain more depth in the cut:
With a bit of care it all got quite square:
