Today in the shop (I've solved my cord and hose problems)

Post by reible »

Our local Sear store had closed and while they will be missed by me I did buy a few things that I just had to have. One of them was one of these clothes racks on wheels. The arms have a range of heights and can be set independently so it has some flexibility.

It's on wheels so I might have to make a little platform or some sort of way of keeping it from rolling at some point. So far is hasn't been that big an issue so I haven't really gave it any detailed thoughts.

I had to come up with a way so the vac hose didn't retract when it would be unattached from the tool, a little bungy strap fixed that. That was about the only issue that came to light after I started using it.

It solves my issues when working on my work surface and I've been using it with my shopsmith when I hook up the shark guard and need something above.

It set me back $23 and it has been well worth it.

There may be more Sears stores going away so if you have one doing that in your area you might well want one of these.
