    Anyone have any experience with Tactacam security cameras?

    Our circumstances are very similar to yours. After a lot of research we chose Defender 360. It has worked very well, and would recommend it.

    Shop towels sustainability

    Pre soak rags in detergent soap/water in 5 gallon buckets with lids. Put buckets in back of truck and drive around a couple days prior to wash day. I bought a nice washing machine at auction for $5.00 as it was in basement and no one wanted to move it out. Dedicated to shop rags or shop towels...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Since it was too much of a winter storm in these parts to work outside, I retired to the shop, cleaned off a section of shelf over my work bench, that had accumulated a bunch of **** no longer needed, placed framed photos of my wife, son, daughter, leaving enough space for grand kids. Sometime I...

    Mounting a Vise to a Work bench

    “I would rather not drill holes in it to fit a vise” - but let me show you my amazon shopping list. Sounds like you are seeking validation to spend money on plates that are bolted to the bench. Personally, I have utilized the scrap board or scrap plate with HD C clamps. Never had a issue, we...

    Country flags in garage

    Live edge coffee table

    That turned out very nice! What did you do to the underside of the table? Did you apply finish to it, or leave it natural?

    HF Free Tape Measures...

    We give them out as stocking stuffers for Christmas, always getting them for free. Most of our clan know the basics of tab adjustments, and "cutting a inch". I would have dug it back out of the trash after every ones comments.

    Help ME make offer on a Dayton 60 gallon

    With its age, I would also be concerned about the tank. Who knows when and how often it was drained. I would pass. To many makes and models available today to chance one that might be ok, or a total waste.
