He Puts His Shop Tools On Wheels

He Puts His Shop Tools On Wheels FARM SHOP Miscellaneous 30-2-38 Whatever the shop tool, if he can put it on wheels, Dan Neuman, Loami, Ill., does just that. Here are four examples: Portable Work Bench - Neuman's busiest "tool" is his portable table, or work bench. It's made entirely from steel and has a heavy steel plate for a table top. Caster wheels allow the work bench to be moved anywhere, and there's a handle on one side that lets Neuman guide it there. The table also has its own electrical plug-in box. Drill Press - This drill press is equipped with a specially designed carriage. It looks like a tall chair with two rubber wheels on back. The front legs rest on the floor. The design allows Neuman to maneuver the drill around his shop by simply grabbing a high rod on back and leaning the unit backward. Welder - Neuman mounted his welder on individually designed carts that ride on wheels. The welder has two conventional rubber wheels on back and two small caster wheels on front. Chop Saw - It mounts on a cart equipped with two wheels on back and two legs on front. The saw is located at a convenient working height.
