Anything you guys think I should change? Open to suggestions! Automotive tech.

found this logging saw under a rail bridge. I estimate its age at ~100 years based on the age of the bridge. rusty but trusty. obvously wouldnt use this in a situation where it breaking would be a safety issue but it works pretty well for light tree work.

I know matco doesn't make them but they do sell them.

I wanted a better way to store and access my DeWalt batteries and it morphed into a universal tower carousel type design. It rotates and can be as tall as needed for more batteries. You can swap the battery mounts out for any brand too! Without the Ego batteries I can put 15 DeWalt batteries on this guy!

For those who were asking, if you flip the tool over the are stamped sae on the other side. 11mm=7/16 etc... They worked well, had a rounded off brake line that a line wrench wouldn't grab yet these did. Only time will tell if they are worth the purchase.

There is not a single piece of plastic on this thing. The main shaft use bronze bearings, and a ball bearing for thrust on the bottom. And another ball bearing for the pulley on top. They all have holes so you can oil them. The motor has bearings that use oil too. The rest is heavy cast iron. And I know it's missing the small cover on the front. This press did not have a belt cover, but only a cover for the front pulley.

Recently been given this ingersoll impact and was told it just needed to be rebuilt. I’ve been having trouble finding the repair kit I am needing. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I had a second picture of it next to a croissant for size reference when folded up but I guess I can only post one picture.. anyways it's very compact and hold everything I need when I go to different job sites. This and a M12 stubby impact 🤌🏽🤌🏽
