    Need a new air hose

    I wasn't as happy with flexilla- but I absolutely love my goodyear -its prob 25 yrs old and still soft, pliable, and rolls up nicely- I don't use a reel so when I roll the flexilla is seems to be slightly more finicky. (like a memory sort of- you have to kinda roll it around to make a nice roll...

    Any ideas for sheathing interior walls.

    Whoever built mine used 3/4 subflooring - but they only did half way- So I have finished one wall all they way- Its nice cause you can screw anything up- anywhere- no need to hit a stud- Its bad because its freaking heavy- On the top course I have to use a lift and the 4 x 8 sheet almost pulled...

    yeah you can say it---- just don't google it- trust me on that one- (and the car that I wanted to find the fluid for was a 1969) so you can imagine----

    Does this Wilton have any value

    that looks way nice for a vice- even the jaws look minimally used- I would think its worth 20- but I don't think i would beat it-it just seems wrong since its so nice

    Craftsman 113.29991 table saw

    same here I have my grandfathers 1952 c-man- I passed on stepdads 1988 ccman- THe old one runs/cuts true- Its a really nice machine (I did repower it- the old half horse or maybe one horse wasn't enough-) I picked up a side extension off ebay (to match the original one grandpa bought with it and...

    Nominating Worst tree

    I vote for sweet gum too- last one I pushed down with a track loader- It had so many damn balls I could 360 my zero turn (well thats not impressive- but I wasn't turning- and it was on a slope-) To the poster re: persimmons- Have you ever had persimmon pudding? Its a southern thing- but you...

    Moving Compressor Outside - Need Input

    moved mine outside about 10 yrs ago- Poured a small pad- built a small lean to style roof- Thats it- no walls- full air circulation- It does freeze here- never an issue (well one time it was about 20* F outside and the auto drain froze when I turned it on) Not really an issue as the compressor...

    Need suggestions for getting bench mill in pickup bed.

    If you have any gyms in the area- usually some of the big guys are hire-able for just this sort of thing- I never knew that until one day i heard a couple talking about making money doing that sort of thing (I guess they figure they are getting paid to lift weights so YMMV but could be a...

    Car body work solution

    IIRC the issue is the qtr is a duplicate of a 68 and fits the 67 but has no provision for the "vents" like the 67- If you want it close to original appearance I think you may have to cut the holes and then use a flanging tool (like a weird vice grip to bend down the area around the hole to give...

    Weber gas grill spring cleaning

    Not sure about a napoleon- but the weber you just go Hi- Hi- Hi for about 10 mins and the temps will be > 550F so pretty much everything on mine is crispy or ash- A stiff brush then removes pretty easily-

    Craftsman Table Saws with pedestal mounts

    idk the answer but I like the pedestal- I have an older cman table saw (don't know the number- its prior to the gold ones I am pretty sure) Hows the pedestal saw in terms of tippyness? It looks like a large sheet of plywood/osb/sheeting would maybe tip it- but it looks really cool-

    Weber gas grill spring cleaning

    love our weber- I did some replacement of the flav bars a few years ago- (went with the stainless this time) That thing cannot cook a bad steak- we absolutely love it- Heres a trick for you- ever reheat pizza and the crust is soggy? Yep- throw that bad boy on the weber for a few minutes- - you...

    Eliminating black tarnish on aluminum

    when i polish aluminum (using never dull or mothers mag and alum polish) it comes off black until i get all the residue off-(usually its pretty close to a mirror by that point) Its usually one rag putting it on- and about 4-5 to get it clean and shiny

    oil deal- (via slickdeals)

    I used the price for the 0w20 which was 19 and a little change - I do see the other viscosities (5w20 et. al. ) are a little higher still not too bad- Now whether they are on the shelf may be another story- Ill try to check local store and post back

    oil deal- (via slickdeals)

    So i was browsing one of my fav discount sites slick deals- They have listed some oil(s) on sale various weights- Looks like walmart was one of the best sites for the deal- 5 qts for 19ish- penzoil synthetic (not good enough deal- yeah I know) Heres the kicker- There is a rebate offered as well...
