    Between 485 & 705 SQ/FT The **** Shack

    I didn't think about that. I ended up going brushed (non-Fuel) tools on my kit and haven't been disappointed so far. When you start getting into the Fuel tools the $$$ start adding up. I tried to see if I could go with fewer Fuel tools while still spending the same amount of money but just...

    Bob, That's a pretty great deal as well. The exact one I saw in the store I can't find on their website but had the circular saw, reciprocating saw and a grinder. This kit had two 3.0 ah batteries plus the "free" 5.0. It was one of the kits on the big poster of "Buy this, get this free". I...

    I too was heavily invested in the DeWalt 18v tool line. When a pair of batteries cost more than a new 2-tool combo with a couple of batteries I decided it was time to jump into the Li-Ion game. I strongly considered staying with DeWalt but a friend of mine had gone to Milwaukee's M12 Fuel...

    Below 265 SQ/FT 10' x 22' Project – ‘Officina di Attrezzi Veloce’

    That's an amazing light project! It turned out really good.

    A self feeding electric weed trimmer that works??

    Well I'll be dipped! I bought a used M18 Quik-Lok trimmer earlier this summer. It had line in it and I haven't needed to replace it yet. I assumed it was a standard head I had to wind. I looked up the owner's manual and you are correct. You learn something new every day!

    I want to know where you found $10/gal. paint at!

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT Roboto's Garage

    That's no joke! I found a 2005 model Pioneer plasma sitting out for trash. I took it just to see if it could be salvaged. I about threw my back out trying to get it in my truck bed. How tall are your ceilings? I have that same HF 44" setup and have been curious about how much room I'd...

    Your shed wall looks great! Out of curiosity what is the spacing between the 5/4 boards?

    I believe anything from 2001 (maybe 2003?) up is required to have the latch system. While I agree and love the latch system it usually is rated up to a 40lb. child. After that it is recommended to use the seat belt. I don't quite understand it but supposedly the seat belt is the safer of the...

    Above 1200 Sq/FT 24x30 now 28x50 Slice of Heaven

    It's unfortunate about the roofing and the theft of tools. (n) I'm hoping you can recover from all of that. Battery powered lawn equipment has been amazing! I changed everything over from the Dewalt 18v system to the M18 from Milwaukee. As I was doing so I acquired an M18 string trimmer...

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT A new lease on life: 30x40 schoolhouse conversion

    The tank looks great and is well hidden behind the building. On the tractor... did you build an attachment system for the forks or did you convert the bucket to quick attach? I'm asking because I like your set up. I have a Massey Ferguson 1020 with a front loader and recently bought a set of...

    Above 1200 Sq/FT 24x30 now 28x50 Slice of Heaven

    This I'm confused about. We had a bald-faced hornet nest in a tree at work. It absolutely had to go away as it was in a walking path and near our parking lot. The exterminator came in and while I feel like he was cautious he also appeared to give zero "F's" when he walked up near the nest...

    Using standard overhead garage door in a bolt-together steel garage

    I'm interested in seeing the answers to this as well. I just purchased and took down two 24'x25'x12' carports of this same style that I will be turning into two buildings. One building will have a single large garage door 14'-18' wide and the other building will have two 9'x8' garage doors.

    Opinions on Hart vs. Ridgid vs. Husky Tool and Small Parts Organizers?

    A friend of mine just went through this in his work van. He does commercial refrigeration and restaurant equipment repair out of a Ford Transit Connect so space saving is a must for him. He originally went with the Rigid organizers you show as they were on sale for $25/box. He bought two and...

    All things propane

    Interesting. I guess it comes from being in a fairly major sized service area (Charlotte) and working for a large, profit seeking company. It also could've been my manager who was a sleezeball and was trying to nickel and dime everything he could. Our prices changed almost daily and prices...
