Does the blower move a lot of air? Like would it move leaves on the lawn?

I think it would. Not as well as a full size one, but it would do work for sure.

It looks like it is the same as my Rigid jobsite blower. It's good for small jobs and can move some leaves but I wouldn't say it would be very effective trying to do a lot of leaves.

I have one that size and it's good for blowing out the garage and trailer or truck. Maybe a driveway occasionally.
I'd really say you want 40 volts + for a leaf blower that's any good on the lawn.

I mainly bought the blower for blowing off the camp gear after a lot of dusty road miles.

I've seen a lot of cool press mods out there but this one is going one The List. That's to raise and lower the shelf.
So, this just randomly showed up in my FB feed too. There's a lot of great ideas going on here!

I was using this hoist to pull my hart top off. I lost my teenage boys so I went to a wall mounted electric winch. The crank is going on the press this winter. There are tons of great mods for these presses.
I can live without it but I figured this is a tool thread and I thought this was clever.

Anybody have an off-the-shelf solution for those pulleys? I assume he fabbed those, but I'm not that motivated.
Looks like a pretty standard pulley to me, just remove the fastener they have in there and replace with a bolt…?

Maybe he used this and it's just his base that's fabricated. That looks easier.

I bought some at Harbor Fright a long time ago to build a coyote skinning machine. Haven't looked at them there since, but they had a pretty good selection then.

Algot Wilson of Green River Wyoming passed along a lot of knowledge to me about how to skin and preserve hides. He was a genuine mountain man living in the modern world.
I am looking for an extensive set of drill bits. Focused on the larger sizes if possible.
The set I just threw away was as old as me, but had ALL the sizes. Legit in like 32nds increments all the way up.
I had lost the vast majority of them, and what was left is dull.
The new stuff I can find is like 12 pieces and rarely even goes up to 1/2.
Anyone have a brand and set they love?

Drill bit sets
@lhracing had a post on here the other day about a Matco drill bit set. I have a great connection at MSC I should leverage for tools and supplies more often and I've been trying to find a set that I should snag. Anyone that knows drills know what I'd want for general garage use? I'm tired...
