How important is this with wheels? I work at a dealership and the way I was taught was to just take them all off in one go, and it looks like most of the employees do the same. I actually leave one loosened holding the wheel on until I know the wheel is loose from the hub. I have not seen them...

I would agree with most people on here. Most chemicals I will buy from Griots without a lot of questioning it. Hardware items I do take more seriously, I keep my eye out for the same sort of thing and often find a better bargain. I've only had one item I've not been quite happy with but that was...

It's sad when I was in high school 2000-2004 we had two fairly new CNC mills one for the wood shop and one for the metal shop. Over the 4 years I was there I became proficient in 2-D milling on the wood cnc mill and 3-D on the metal one. I was the only one who knew how to run the wood mill other...

I was looking at a pack of 5000k Philips the 850 series at home depot. I'm currently trying to save my money so I can go snowboarding this winter. So the garage might come to a halt until the spring. We will see, what happens. Thanks for the info about fluorescent bulbs JustBoosted, helps a lot...

I'd loose my head if I when out to my garage to find that. I know where everything is because it's all neatly organized. There are people I know who know where everything is in that kinda mess and I have to give them mad props for knowing. :bowdown:

Here is what I want for my shoplight. I currently have a twin head halogen work light, the thing is going through bulbs like my car goes through gas. 6skott, no need to read into it, we have a group of signs, we put two up in the windows. I'm not sure what mom was intending to do with the lawn...

Well I got all the fixtures up today, I'm quite sore and tired but it'll be worth it in the end. I'm still trying to decide what bulbs to go with, I bought a pack of 5000k but I'm not sure if that's what I should go with. What's currently in the fixtures is what they used at work a mixture of...

I'd have to agree with l_bilyk if you going for other tools be careful. I went DeWalt in hopes to expand my cordless tolls eventually. I bought an 18v Drill and Reciprocating Saw package, two batteries, and charger, I couldn't be happier. When we moved into our current house I got a Black and...

Well I did some more research, and it appears I got confused. I currently have T12s in the garage and what I got at work would be T8s but it's fine by me beggars can't be choosers. So hopefully i can install them today or tomorrow. The plan will stay with what I was originally planning on doing...

As some of you may have seen I introduced myself with picts of my garage recently but I'll say hi again... So here's the garage, currently I'm planning on setting up some copper lines and retractable hoses for the air compressor in the near future. For some reason every time I walk into this...

The fixtures are T5s and currently have 32 watt bulbs, the ballasts are 120v 60Hz I couldn't find a wattage rating does it matter? I got one fixture today and should have two more by Thursday, would 3, 32 watt T5s be brighter then 4, 40 watt T12s? Excuse my lack of education in fluorescent...

So I found out on Friday that at work one of the fluorescent light fixtures broke and they are going to replace all 4. The remaining 3 that are still working are going to the dumpster. As you probably already figured out I asked about taking them off there hands, and it sounds like there ok with...

I wish I could say I did but unfortunately it came with the house I suspect that the owner before the one we bought it from built them. The person we bought it from basically sat on it for 2 years and didn't have anything in the garage other then his car and a few small things. Currently I have...

I heard about this forum over at fourtitude and just had to look, since i'm in the process of making a home in my current garage I thought I'd join in. Of course what's a post with out photos so here's the current status of my garage. It started out as the catch all for the rest of the house...
