IMHO the best method is to clean up after yourself. I keep some scotchbrite pads on my sink backsplash that I use to scrub the sink every time I use it. For messes tougher than what scotchbrite will handle I keep a sheetrock sanding sponge. Oh, the sink and countertop are both lab grade...

Man, you need some insulation! I suggest that you buy some foam insulation as thick as you can find and cut it into strips to fit between the rafters, then glue it in place and add some furring strips below it just for good measure. You also need some sort of vent fan to pull the hot air out...

Every time i use dishwashing soap to clean my hands I feel like my hands are still dirty afterward. I have to use regular bar soap the get the dishsoap off

I have had one(rotary hammer) from Harbor Freight for about five years now. Used it to drill a bunch of 5/8" holes in concrete slabs and brick and block walls. Man that thing goes through concrete like a regular drill goes through wood. Don't remember what I paid but it was cheap. It's paid for...

Yep, seems like it was called Ask the experts before HAMB took over the forum

I like Zep Cherrybomb. Cleans good, smells like cheeries

Man, they just keep making cars uglier and uglier! That Chevy looks like a Dodge to me now

I HAVE to wear a belt. If I done my jeans will stay around my ankles! BTW, I also use dollar store floormats with rubber backing to throw on my cars fenders. Lot's cheaper that the storebought fender protectors

Back in 2001, my MGBGT went under flood water. After the water went down, I stuck a dehumidifier inside the car and closed the doors. For the next week, I was getting two to three gallons of water from the humidifier. I quit counting at 18 gallons! Who'd ever though a small car like a MGBGT...

Bluejeans and tee shirts. In fact, work clothes is all I have. Don't have time for any social functions so I don't need any dress clothes. BTW, my jeans do not have rivits in the pockets and I wear a leather covered beltbuckle-can't have meatle scratching my cars accidentaly

i have seen a refridgerated unit advertised at Harbor Freight. For years I used nothing more that a bunch of copper tube coiled up to fit inside a 5 gallon plastic bucket. Bucket was filled with water and a water seperator was placed downstream. Worked good for me. I was running two mediea...

I normally keep the doors closed between the machine tool part and the gararge. If I am working in the gararge, I leave the doors open. I need to add a better means of circulating the air between the two but over all it makes things comfortable to work in the gararge if I leave the the two...

Tony, I'll be offended if you don't drop in the next time you're within 100 miles! You and Jerri are always welcome!

Just bought a bench bandsaw, http://lathemaster.com/Benchtop%20Bandsaw.htm and have been impressed. It cuts straight and true and may be just the ticket for anyone who is limited on shopspace and budget. Beats the hell out of my two abrasive saws, which I hope to never use again! I'd be...

Yep, 71BGT. Have a 72B as well, awaiting restro. Both cars went under flood water in 2001 and are in the process of being reworked. The small door by my desk leads to a half-bath as well. Love the metal cabinents and stainless sink and tops. Both were free for the taking. The cab fronts and...
