What did you do to / in your garage / shop today?

I’d stay away from it to if I could

Stuffed with creamy peanut butter & American cheese, this delicious burger is topped with strawberry jam.

Moved some things around to make it easier for my wife to pull into the garage. The work bench is now on the west wall.

Pulled her car in and got an alarm for a headlight out. So replaced the bulb. Orielly had Sylvania high end bulbs for $65 with only a 100 hr lifespan🙄 I'd have to replace those every couple of months. Ended up at Advance Auto for their lower tier bulbs for $40 with a 425 hr lifespan. Also, to replace the bulb you have to remove the inner fender liner.

After that, I decided to check the coolant level since I flushed the system a couple weeks ago. Noticed the beginning of a rodent nest.

25 yrs ago a lady at work gave me her Craftsman wood chipper because it no longer started. She left it with gas and the carb gummed up. I got it running but it was always a struggle. Because of this it sat in the shed for 20 yrs. After watching Taryl Fixes All on youtube I decided to get it up and running. I changed the oil and bought a new made in china carb. What do you know it works now. I bet it has less than 10 hrs on it and is good as new.

Cleaned up my small project workbench and add some peg board.
A friend gave me 100 or so 1/2” neodymium magnets and I’m trying to figure out the best way to use them to make tool holders. First prototype was drilling holes in an aluminum bar. I tried using steel but they just did not hold the weight. I can’t believe the power of such a little magnet.
