I deliver LP on the east side of Indy. started with a small place that sold/set/filled 100# cylinders frequently. then we got bought out 2 years ago. new company wants nothing to do with them, so my customers got "grandfathered in", but no more setting them. we have a tiered fill price...

our house is on 1 acre of property, a corner of maybe 30 sq ft is considered in the flood zone, it sits lower then the rest of the property. we had to get flood insure due to it. FI is only $1200 a year. i couldn't find any history of flooding, but it was "cheap insurance" the fields adjacent to...

for your compressor, it just turns a ball valve... it doesn't actually turn on the compressor? i've see plugs/switches for 110v plugs, but would be nice to find one for 240 for my compressor. i understand the issues with 20a, 30a, 50a and the different plug configurations. would be something...

I have a couple Habitat for Humanities ReStores around me. they always have sinks- stainless steel, double,single, sometimes even 3 sinks. may have to visit a couple times to find one you like, but mine always have a selection to choose from.

my companies work Silverado High Countrys have these, great idea, until i realized that i cannot change the hvac controls or radio while i have the blinker on. so at a red light with turn signal on, i have to turn it off to change something, then turn the signal back on for my semi, i used...

when i had a garage (sigh), i used dual monitors on my computer. main was for working (word, excel, internet...) other was for videos and movies. the "video monitor" also had speakers and other video inputs- rca, coax, hdmi. i attached a digital antenna box to this to watch ota news and tv.

when my dash went out on my silverado, i bought a cheap Bluetooth odb dongle from amazon (the small one that can stay plugged in and not be in way whiel driving) and the cheapest android phone from Walmart (i have straight talk thru Walmart, so i got one of those phones). plugged in dongle to...

i recently acquired a wire welder so i could learn the basics of welding, and a spot sand blaster... i also have a cheap HF trailer i got for free that will need some work. i haven't seen any rust yet, but i can practice welding small pieces onto the frame- tie downs for example. this will be a...

both of my cars get: 2 road flares (for early warning on road, source of heat to melt snow if desperate, light at night), blanket, light jacket (due to space constraints), long sleeve t shirt and sweatpants (something old that i don't care about anymore (wife can use mine, but i cannot use...

my new employer has a smaller version of what is in the video, 7' tall i believe. i've never seen it used, but its been setup for a while. they say its for smaller parts and when the "dirty room" has vehicles in it getting their own pain jobs done fans to keep it inflated, LED shop lights on...

the house i just bought had some kind of gutter guard on it... well, most of it. the parts that were missing just allowed the leaves to collect under the parts that had the guard. i ended up tossing all of it and just climb onto roof and blow out the gutters. ***** to do, but better then...

when we had our house built, there was always one outlet per room with ground up- the top outlet was controlled by a switch, and the bottom outlet was always hot. that house was built in 2006. none of our upstairs rooms had overhead lights (we installed those later and made them fans with...

my local rural king also has the LED light with the 120 outlet on it. they are roughly the same price at $25-$30. i will say though, the one from sams is brighter. i bought it a few years ago, and the ones from RK a couple months ago. so i don't remember what the lumen count is on the Sams one...

in my old work shop, it had a 7' ceiling. so i mounted a HF manual hose reel on wall, then ran a line to an old wooden 5" pulley attached to ceiling by eye bolt. having the pulley allowed me to pull the hose anywhere in the shop and it woulnd't kink. the hose was 100' long, so it was also able...

i had one in my detached garage at my old house. used it for videos and music. had it setup for dual screens so i could have a video playing while still looking stuff up. since i moved to my new place, it got too cold before i could properly set it up. i went out to my shed where all will be...
