Re: End of Year Purchases

TOOL CHEST!!! If you are buying tools, you have to organize them, as well as leaving room to expand your collection of tools (it will happen).
WELDER? Think about a Tig or Mig welder for welding aluminum, especially for making a tubular robot frame.
Also get an assortment of alloy steel bolts;1/4-20, 10-32, 8-32, 6-32, 4-40. Varying lengths from 1" to 3/8", by eights of an inch.
