    Gently cleaning/restoring some Kennedy drawers

    LOL, my father-in-law was a deliberate perfectionist and he knew how to take care of his stuff. :) I just want to care for these as well as I possibly can. More pics later, after I get a chance to fix 'em up.

    Gently cleaning/restoring some Kennedy drawers

    Question on casters -- where is a good place to buy some? I was in a Home Depot for an unrelated errand the other day, and wasn't impressed.

    Gently cleaning/restoring some Kennedy drawers

    Here are a few pics. I have two of the rolling drawers, one of the top pieces, and one piece that I didn't photograph that fits between the two. At one point I figured out the model numbers; I'll have to track those down again. In one of the pics you can see a bit of the journeyman toolbox...

    Gently cleaning/restoring some Kennedy drawers

    Hey all -- I got some great advice form this forum when I was researching floor epoxy. I hope to tap your insight again on a couple of things I couldn't find by searching. I recently brought home a set of Kennedy drawers that my father-in-law used (he was a machinist) basically until the day...

    Converting a Torquemaster spring to a Torsion Spring -- cost?

    Thanks Schtauffer. I'll give the garage door people a call tomorrow to see what they say. I'm not at the house right now, but based on the website I'd guess that they put either a 9100 or 9600 on there. Nothing fancy.

    Converting a Torquemaster spring to a Torsion Spring -- cost?

    I've got a pretty standard 16x7 garage door in my new-construction home. The garage door company installed a Wayne Dalton door with a Torquemaster spring. I've seen a few reports of people who switched out their Torquemasters for standard torsion springs. How much should this cost?

    Wolverine Epoxy Floor in NC

    Agreed, awesome floor. :) How did you keep the SuperGrip suspended in the pan as you laid it down? Did you agitate the paint tray or do something else?

    About to pull the trigger...some application questions

    LOL Fred, I try to give you a break and you just won't quit! I appreciate all of the help. I've gotten good enough at house painting to cut in without tape. I think the only place I'll really need to tape is right where the floor ends; the garage door comes down beyond that point, but the...

    About to pull the trigger...some application questions

    Hey all -- After reading about floor treatments here until my eyeballs popped out, I've decided to put down some Wolverine epoxy in my new construction 400 sq ft garage. I'm working with Fred to finalize details of the order, but I have a couple of questions regarding the logistics of...
