That would be my 1st choice........IF I had one!

This (flow bench) has proven to be useful, as well as a source of frustration.

I bought a used truck drum and rotor lathe about 2 years ago. Just had a need for it the other day. Bought some tooling and cut a few rotors recently. It's my new favorite tool for now.

X2. Except the wife part, she's no help in the garage.




I found that if you keep the shop a mess the wife won't go near it.

As far as favorite tool: If I didn't have a floorjack I wouldn't need most of the rest of my tools.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
