Putting a curb in the garage would potentially create a tripping hazard. Something to consider around elderly folks.

Pretty good deal for the features that are provided. My $30 Hubsan X4 here has been going for a few years now...just needs new batteries once in a while. On that note, when your tiny quad tells you that its time to land, land it. Those LiPo batteries don't like being over-discharged and you...

I can't really offer much on the topic of diesel mechanic as a career choice, but here's a thought. Look around for industrial electrical and instrument technician openings. If I was looking for a tradesman type job, this one would be it. Any industrial facility needs them and many places will...

I wish my drill was that big :(

Thanks for the update! Followed the instructions in the the 1st post using the new word and got $5 from both Sears and Kmart numbers. How do you find out what the word of the week/day is for this sort of deal?

I found that in my garage the walls adjoining living space have drywall, blue foam insulation, OSB and finally studs...no stud finder that I could locate locally can go through 1.5" of wall to reliably find studs. Luckily, I had construction photos and used those to get an idea of where the...

Hit up http://www.kccworld.co.kr/eng/ and contact them in regard to the product that you have. Its not a part number that is listed on their site, but it does come up in searches for MSDS documentation. As for that can of hardener, it is made by a different company and thus shouldn't be part of...

This looks very much like what you're looking for: https://www2.kimballmidwest.com/All-Products/Fasteners/Screws/Sheet-Metal-Screws/Hex-Washer-Head-Sheet-Metal-Screws/ You'll just have to add the sealing washer to match existing hardware.
