My mother had some around 40 year old boxwoods lining her driveway that had grown to 7or 8 feet tall. Some landscaping company knocked on her door one day about 4 or 5 years ago and offered $100 each for them. They brought their equipment, dug them up rootball and all, fixed the yard, and took...

This has nothing to do with me, just noticed it on craigslist today and thought I would pass it on. Several Challenger lifts and other shop equipment for sale. I would like one of the lifts, but it's just not in the cards right now. EDIT: LOL, I guess it would help if I included the link...

I definitely wouldn't trust my life to the HF jack without stands, but I wouldn't trust my life to a $1000 jack without stands either.

I know they're not the best quality, but I have a 3 ton, low profile jack from Harbor Freight that I have had zero issues with. I have been using it for the last 3 or 4 years. I left one car on it with no stands for about a week. It never leaked down a bit. I think I paid somewhere around...

Round those corners!

Did anyone ever determine if this worked on a Genie opener? I saw the question, but never saw where anyone actually tried. Just curious before I pony up $60.

Guy I used to work with has a Masters degree in something...I don't know what. Obviously not spelling or grammar. "I am so pisted!" <-- pissed "Marry Chrismass" "Eotch" < Eotech brand optics (not a simple typo, typed it 4 or 5 times the same way) I don't have an example of his grammar...

Interesting that you pointed that out. I never paid any attention to it, but I just opened it, and it does exactly as you say. I agree, no reason for it to know my location. I guess it may get the axe now. Thanks for the heads up!

Yeah, I have scissor trusses and would need a ceiling on it also. I haven't spent time thinking of a way to do it yet.

You didn't specify Android, Windows, or iOS, nor what kind of work you will be doing. Here are a couple Android apps I use: Garage Buddy - All kinds of conversions, etc. Mostly car related. Carango - Not necessarily garage, but keep track of vehicle maintenance, gas mileage, etc.

That could be a very sweet deal for someone that is capable. I can confirm that Smith Lake is very nice. Been there many times, and have friends that had property there. Good luck to you.

This is NOT mine, nor do the pics belong to me, but something I found on the web, possibly on here at one point. Something I would love to get around to building one day...

EDIT: Nevermind, nothing to see here. I found what I was looking for in mfgorilla's links.

Yeah, but you'll save $0.65!! That would be my wife's logic. :lol_hitti

Look into the Evernote plugin for your browser, or a site like instapaper.com that lets you kinda stash pages to read later. I agree, it gets overwhelming with a very active site like GJ. I have fallen in love with both of the above. Evernote is very powerful. You can save the URL, the...
