    Dewalt Bluetooth speaker and Bluetooth transmitter in hd

    If all you plan on doing is using bluetooth to play music from your smartphone or tablet, I would recommend one of the numerous bluetooth speakers on the market. I bought the JBL Flip on sale for under $90, though it's normally around $100. Compact, good battery life, and great sound. It and my...

    Briggs and Stratton throttle spring

    About 5-6 years into my last $100 push mower the spring was worn out. Not the proper repair by any means, but I cut the spring shorter, bent a new end and hooked it back up. Ran it like that until the deck finally rusted threw a few years later.

    Craftsman 41" SS Toolbox

    I didn't find either of the stainless boxes, but I did find a new in box 59623 top box for $173 today. Haven't got it fully unpacked, but I'd say either way it's a lot of box for the money.

    How to recycle an old catalytic converter?

    I work in the scrap industry, and in my experience it's not that the guys that buy don't believe you. They are just following the laws some clueless politician put in place for them. The laws really haven't' curbed theft much, but noncompliance on one of the reporting/documentation...

    Dwd460 stud/joist drill at lowe's

    Just went over and looked over the tool section since my local store is 10 minutes away. Couldn't find any right angle or stud drills. All they had was the basic hand drills. Was I looking in the wrong section?

    Good beginner's welder

    Re: Good beginners welder Depends on how much you want to spend. All the major players have an entry level machine that will run on 110. I personally went with an Eastwood 135 and like it so far.
