Hey Yarb - I didn't actually put a locking caster on it, I wasn't planning on using that small vice for anything industrial. I was thinking more just as a holding device for something that I might have to tack weid etc. I actually used it today to hold the ballnut from my chop saw, the thread strip and I had to put it insert in it. The vice was perfect for that . There is now a harbor freight, within about 5 minutes of my home, so I can easily get a locking caster if it should become a requirement. Fabricated the other wheelie cart for the narrow trays this one will hold eight, it is on the toll side, however they are all essentially lightweight as I use them to contain rubber bushings/grommets, body clips, various sealants, and so forth. Rained on and off all day today - so not much else accomplished. I did get this primed, and also I did get the caulking on the other side of the eave in the front of the garage. Really cool display yesterday evening - it's rained again after this one, and by the time we got to town, there was a clear double rainbow. Hard to photograph. It was also in the first one, but less obvious, to me anyway

Made a wheelie cart to hold the bins I have. Now I need to make another for the narrower bins that I was going to put against the wall Decided I might as well make it a mini bench with a small vice Eave test with scraps - cut to 12 degrees, with a 3/8" filler also cut to 12 degrees put the PVA in the siding gap cut & fitted the actual eave. Made a center support, since I couldn't do a single 18' run and got primer on it. I'll caulk it tomorrow.

Having been declared in 1995 as “under restoration” #51 has sat quietly waiting for someone to put her back together., I thought I’d share my sure to be slow resto project……good, the bad, and the ugly. Pulling a clear glass, 09/69 dated rear hatch glass from the clutches of a dry rotted hard gasket isn’t for the faint of heart…. Trusty hammer, screw driver……😃

FWIW, For the 1973 blue car on the 'We're Bringing Back the Flat Tops' thread I used the blank sticker and went to a Hobby store (Trains and RC cars) and found a transfer stencil that is pretty dog gone close to the original font. I was very happy with the results. No points deducted at ZCON, no one noticed.
