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.

First i made a prototype out of wood that worked grate:

And then one made with Steel:

And the finished product:

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.
