I just put up some pegboards and am now in the same situation. What did you end up doing?

Awesome to hear! What did you do with the ground under the shed between the blocks? Leave as bare ground or put down landscape fabric and gravel?

Yup, I've read about the whole range of shed foundations from just putting skids directly on the ground to building posts that rival decks and houses. I'm hoping this is more of the former in cost and effort. I was thinking something like the picture below with gravel under the rear blocks and...

The entry will be on the left 8' side. Both of the rear blocks are sitting on dirt and roots. There's a tall pine tree about 10 ft up the hill so it's possible the roots are from that tree which is very much alive. I'll dig around and see. What about digging a hole, filling it with crushed...

My house came with an old 8x10 wood shed which I'm tearing down and replacing with a 8x12.5 resin shed. The shed will be used for lawn tools, push lawnmower, bikes and junk valuable garage overflow. It will not be used for anything heavy or as a workshop. No frost or snow and only rains a few...

Got one of those Battery Daddy battery holders. Thought it was dumb cause why waste money on it when you can just use a normal $1 plastic bin? Now I love it because it so handy having my Costco number of batteries all organized with a nice handle. Plus the main component has a big enough...

What about the PB Swiss has you picking it up more than others? Which handle did you get?

I should take my own advice and just get this free set

Yup, I have a Bosch 12v drill and driver set which I do use a lot. These use cases are when you can't use them because they'd be too overpowering. And sometimes you just want to feel the mechanical action of the tool. This actually makes total sense esp w/ the earlier advice that people...

Take a look at this Wiha Centrofix bit holder. YouTube reviews say it handles almost any bit with no play whatsoever. No ratchet and no onboard storage but if no wobble is what you're looking for, this seems to be the best. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B8L4M7G/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Interesting. I tried some new basic Husky acetate ones and the flathead quality was terrible. The supposed parallel tip grooves were all crooked and one of the drivers tips still had excess metal chunks hanging off. Made me rule out Craftsman acetate ones but I’ll reconsider now.

Great find! These are very nice but I'm concerned about the classic acetate smell issue. I will reach out to HJE and see if they're new so maybe it's as not as much of an concern. Plus I can't tell how many actual drivers it comes with. The page says 10, the picture has 12, the url says 14 and...

Thanks for all the input! You've convinced me to pick up some blue Vessel Megadora for Phillips. 50/50 for US/SAE flathead choice. Either US made with handles I'm not particularly fond of (Klein, Williams, Tekton) or some throw away, disposable chinese set from HD/Lowes/HF.

The ultimate GJ son-in-law approval scale: HF <-> Snap-On

I probably have more Pozidriv than Phillips in my house because all the furniture and fixtures are from Ikea. I actually have the opposite problem where I wanted some pz bits for said furniture but can’t find any during the many Home Depot/Lowes bit set sales. I’m guessing it’s cause I’m in the US.
