    Portable Automotive Battery Charger

    https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/motomaster-eliminator-wheeled-battery-charger-55-20-2a-with-150a-engine-start-0111586p.html I just looked it up after reading your post. I'm now seeing that it is not a well reviewed piece of equipment. Anything I should try before scrapping it or looking to...

    Portable Automotive Battery Charger

    I was given one of those battery charger/booster/jump starters on wheels. I didn't use it for quite a while but when I did first plug it in, the unit seems to completely shut down after 30 seconds. Any thoughts? I'm not very good with electronics.

    NewAge Cabinets reviews and tips

    I never tried the social media avenue, but I sent NewAge another email just yesterday asking if they had another, preferrably in service phone number for the courier company. The emailed hasn't been responded to, but today I received a phone call from the courier company saying they can deliver...

    I'm nowhere near 166 days, but did your tracking info say that it was delivered well before the actual delivery date? My ETA was the 24th. On the 25th, it said it was delivered, but I haven't received it or been contacted by the courier to arrange a delivery date/time. The phone number that...

    Depending on the hand truck, it could be manageable, but I would also use a strap and/or second pair of hands to help keep it stable on the hand truck.

    NewAge Cabinets reviews and tips

    Ya I know - wishful thinking. I had a hard time bringing myself to spend the money on the Bold set and now I'm considering spending twice that. Upgrading wasn't even a distant thought a few days ago, but I'm a sucker for a good deal...

    NewAge Cabinets reviews and tips

    I need some talking down. I own an 8-piece Bold set and it currently serves my purposes just fine. There is a pretty good deal on a 10-piece Pro set that is giving me an itchy trigger finger. I don't need the extra space that the Pro set offers right now, but it may very well come in handy in...

    NewAge Cabinets reviews and tips

    I agree returning/exchanging would be too much of a pain for minor flaws, but I've read comments from people saying that NewAge has sent parts or replacements after the customer sends them a picture of the damage.

    Canadian Tire DEALS

    You made it sound like some of their current tools were made in Canada, but I am surprised that even 10 years ago, there was anything made in Canada under the Mastercraft name. I'm sure if you go back a few decades, virtually every tool sold in North America was made close to home.

    Which set are you looking at that have castors? I have the 8-piece bold set and there are no castors on either of my cabinets.

    I've actually done that for my floor jack and it works well, but the puck sits nicely in the cup on the floor jack. With the part of the bottle jack that contacts the puck being much smaller than the puck, I'd be concerned about it staying in place.

    Is there an adapter or something that I could use this bottle jack with on a vehicle with a pinch weld jacking point?
