    Sam's Club Black Friday deal on Storage cabinets

    Sam's has the Seville 6' Cabinets on sale for $150, I've wanted to replace a bunch of my shelves with them for years and this is the best price I've seen. Online is sold out but there were several pallets at my local store...

    Electronic Ballasts and Radio Noise

    I hadn't considered this but I've had issues with my stereo in my shop only picking up static and I experimented last night and it happens when I flip on my back half lights. I want to replace all the fixtures with LED lights anyways, I'll add this to the list of justifications..

    OKC Garage

    It's really easy to look at the old photos and say more of it should be preserved, but reality is that part of OKC was a canker for decades. The Myriad gardens are really nice and bricktown has become a decent area to visit. I hope they continue to work on cleaning up the downtown area even if...

    good compressor that runs on 110

    This is what I have, it's quiet and rated at a 100 percent duty cycle. I figure if it was too small at least it was built to run all the time.

    OKC Garage

    It's definitely a couple years before my time :bounce: but I'll see if any of my older buddies in the area know anything about it. :beer:

    How did this guy sell me a dead lawnmower?

    Actually with a month shelf time you very well could have gas gone bad in a months time. Ethanol is hydrophilic and more likely to form condensation. Also the tendency to store gas in plastic containers and half full lawnmowers in hot sheds increases the likelihood of having significant amounts...

    Ni Cad vs. Li-ion

    Saw a deal on amazon for a Milwaukee combo today, don't know if it fits what you're looking for but seemed like a good deal to me. :beer: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001F7BIMG/ref=ord_cart_shr?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER

    Your Comments are requested for a new tool

    It's a cool idea, I think it would be great if you can figure out a way to get your cost down, 100 bucks each is a bit rich for my blood. I would eventually like to get a lift so that all I need to use my jack and stands for is wheel and suspension work. Best of luck! :thumbup:

    Let's See Your Garage Dog

    I've got Montgomery C Burns, Monty comes running whenever I say I'm going to the shop. He loves it there, that and he knows that I've got a jar of treats there. He always jumps in the car whenever the door is open too. I've cleaned a lot of paw prints off my seats and consoles.

    That if there was only some way to take out the middle man between the crackhead and the end used tool purchaser! :thumbup: Looks like some good finds!

    What to do with a drop ceiling

    I've thought about tearing out the duct work, the a/c heat unit it is hooked up to doesn't work and looks like it hasn't in a while. I suspect it's the old unit from the house. I might strip all that out and eventually install a mini split system. Again I don't know, this is beyond what I've...

    What to do with a drop ceiling

    Yeah, I think I'd have to figure something to keep more moisture from damaging the panels. This would look awesome, might have to consider that idea when I have more money set aside. So would it be ok to leave the insulation sitting on top of the panels? Or should I raise it to the roof line...

    What to do with a drop ceiling

    Hadn't thought about leaving part of it in place, this might be a good solution. I was looking at making a lofted area for storage and walling in the area under it to create a painting area. Yeah, I just wondered if they would suffer the same sagging and moisture problems. There's some already...
