Thumbs up Post your "Home-Brewed How To's" here ...

Never recalled seeing a post like this here ... so I thought I would start one.

Everyone has tricks, short-cuts, or other helpful things they do in the shop ... post your favorite and share with everyone. Let's make this a sort of "clearinghouse" for helpful hints and "how-to's.

Here's my first:

Jack Stands at a Glance:

Use Testor's model car paints and paint each tooth in the ratcheting mechanism of your jackstands a different color. You can set the first jackstand to the desired height & then, with only a quick glance, you know where the 2nd stand needs to be in order for whatever you are supporting to be level.

Let's hear from some of you other "Shop Rats" and some of ya'lls ideas...
