    Hein Werner Transmission Jack

    If you posted a picture that would help. Typically they aren't worth much, I picked up a Hein-Werner model 61 transmission jack last year for $100. Works well but leaks. Perfect for what I do at home.

    Garage Door Opener Security

    I had a craftsman 2 wire system. I put one of the new MyQ plates on the wall where the old button was. With the internet gateway in this kit now I can open it from my smartphone. The app is a free download. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00C1CF1S6/?tag=atomicindus08-20 $88 and free shipping. But...

    Tailgate Wall hung Changing Table Build

    That site has the basic idea, but I would think the wife unit would like it a bit more polished than that to be in the house ;-)

    Tailgate Wall hung Changing Table Build

    Txvwnut has the right idea. If you can't use the stock style locks, I would think some powerful magnets would hold the gate up without much trouble.

    Tailgate Wall hung Changing Table Build

    I like the idea. Are you asking how to attach the hinges to the wall? Or how to latch the gate to the wall in the up position? I'm assuming you don't want this recessed into the wall? The hinges you have in the attachment look easy enough to get onto the wall with some sort of angle iron...

    Evap Service Port Adapter

    For anyone that wanted to know about this, it is in fact the same thread as a R134a hose. I used an old feed hose I got from a friend, tested the threads, and then cut the hose in half. I now have a nice test port adapter.

    Evap Service Port Adapter

    Anyone out there ever come up with something for this? From what I see the thread appears to be M12x1.25. So I think this would work: Metric Fitting M12 M12X1.25 Female X Barb 3/8” 10mm Air Fuel Gas Oil Boat EG http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/162302701122?lpid=82&chn=ps&ul_noapp=true But it...

    Welder: Norstar m200-m opinions

    Also FYI, these welders have held up very well for my friends business. They use them for maintenance at the facility. For the production welders they still use the big spooled Millers. I've used mine several times. I'm happy with it.

    Welder: Norstar m200-m opinions

    He has been using it for general maintenance where they work. I just asked him the other day on this, he said it's still going strong, they use it at least 2 times a day. Overall he is very impressed with it. I've used mine a couple of times, seems like it's a far better welder than I needed.

    Welder: Norstar m200-m opinions

    I bought one of these welders from a LWS. I was wondering if anyone else has had any experience with them http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/hvd/4834817026.html The consumables are all Miller, and for the $99 spoolgun they seem to be using Tweakco consumables. A friend that runs a local...

    Where can I buy one of these in-store? (10mm magnetic socket)

    You could just magnetize a regular socket using wire and a car battery.
