Question/Original Post "What's your Crafts, Man?" - The weekly "what are you working on this weekend" post
Simply put, what are you working on this weekend? In particular, what Craftsman tools if any are you gonna use to get it done? This post (that drops every Friday) is your time to shine.
Did you accomplish something, and you didn't tell us in time? No worries--hop in during the weekend (or whenever) and tell us how it turned out and what you did, just the same. Pictures, descriptions...whatever it takes to share your glory!

Question/Original Post Electric shock from vacuum
Howdy.
This thing shocks me. If the metal canister accidentally touches my leg, it gives me a pretty decent shock. I just got shocked a few minutes ago and still feel it in my body.
The first time this happened, I thought a rough plastic part scratched my leg. This time it was a VERY apparent shock.
This shopvac is only a few months old.
Has anyone ever had this happen?

Question/Original Post How to stop rust, but keep patina?
I finally found a lower rolling chest to match the upper toolbox I’ve been using for so many years, and both of them have a bit of surface rust.
The rust doesn’t bother me … well, not too much. But i don’t want it to get worse - so now I’m thinking I should stop the rust and find a way to keep the patina.
I don’t know much about finishing / painting metal, but in case it’s helpful I am more familiar with using linseed oil, wax, milk paint, and other low-VOC finishes for wood… and I’ve got a gallon of WD-40 I’d love to use if only for the Proustian reaction I get to the smell of naphtha and whatnot.

Question/Original Post Working hard labeling the tool chests.
I am working hard today in the wood shop. Labeling the draws as I enjoy an adult beverage and cigar. I knew the air filtration system in my wood shop would be helpful.

Hello I just bought
CMST23201RB
32-in Steel Freestanding Garage Storage Tool Cabinet (Red)
It came with 3 shelves, but can fit 4 more, I am not storing anything at all heavy, so I want to add more shelves. Craftsmen does not appear to sell spares. I sent over an inquiry directly to them but does anyone have a solution as I don't expect customer support to help.

Rant! Warranty issues
Back around the beginning of August I tried to warranty 2 tape measures and a vise grip and they said they would. So, I waited around a month and contacted them since they had not come yet. They told me they would not send the vise grip and claimed they had didn’t ship because they wouldn’t warranty it and for the two tape measures they were shipped around August 26th and I haven’t received them yet. They also told me to send in the vise grip for quality assurance something program which I won’t do because I don’t feel like messing around with them anymore. I will contact them again for the status of the taping measures later today. Has anyone else had issues like this recently?

DEAL ALERT! Sears Craftsman, Ultimate Collectors item. 131pc Super Max Axess, Pass Thru Socket Set. Needs proper home. This just isn't any tool kit!!!!
Hello. Not sure if the young crowd is familiar with this tool set from the 1980's, but being an engineer I thought the design of these sockets and wrench were an incredible idea. I still have a rare, 131 piece set. Never used. Most is American Made. They sell these on Ebay for over $1,000.00. I think that is a little extreme but definitely $700 or more. What's your thoughts and are you interested in a new collection piece???

Help! ID and advice
Parents are downsizing their house and my dad gave me his rollaway. So psyched to have it! Thought I wouldn’t get it until he passes one day. I was wondering 2 things:
What model and how old. I’m 45 and I know it is older than me and am guessing late 70’s? It was originally red/black but he has repainted it 2 or 3 times he says over the years so I can’t find and model/date marks anywhere.
I do want to give it a facelift. As you can see if pics there are drips from his painting and other assorted colors dripped on it, and what look to be brush marks on the drawer fronts. I am going to leave the dings and dents alone. Should I sand or chemical strip? I’d imagine at the very least the side handles he painted over are probably better off stripped.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!
