    Prosthetic putter attachment for a pirate golfer with a peg leg. My uncle had one just like it.

    Smart thermostat recommendations?

    Unless your dog is 4 feet tall, you should be okay. You've pretty much got to walk right in front of it to get it to notice you. Edit: Mine is in the hallway. If you have yours in an open room, it might pick up pets. But you can always shut that feature off in the menu. That makes sense. I...

    Smart thermostat recommendations?

    Just curious, what did you find difficult about integrating the Nest? It was far and away the easiest thermostat I've ever installed and it connected in minutes to our newer AC system as well as our ancient boiler. We were actually able to consolidate from two thermostats to one.

    Smart thermostat recommendations?

    Another vote for The Nest here. We've had ours about a year and a half and have been pleased. Not only can you program it if you want, it actually learns your habits and preferences as you tweak it. It also knows if you're home or not and goes into an energy saving mode if it sees that you're...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Oh yes. Yes it could have. :) I was doing a rear suspension refresh (all soft parts as well as welding in some additional chassis and subframe reinforcement) on my 165K mile, 16 year old, daily-driven-in-the-Midwest M3 last spring and could *not* get the right side CV half shaft to separate...

    husky bar stools at home depot

    One for the basement workshop, one for the garage workshop. Done and done. Based on reviews, it sounds like the padding is pretty poor. Anybody have one yet to verify?

    4 Link Suspension Mount Install

    Understood. I had the opportunity to swap all my CJ guts, driveline and front clip onto a very clean '95 YJ tub and frame some years back but didn't. Still kicking myself. :)

    Basement Shop Lighting

    Yes, definitely wire it up properly. Not only will it look and function better, but depending on how strict code enforcement is in your area, it will save you time money and hassle if / when you sell the house. If you've got access to the floor joists, it will be easy to make a clean install...

    Basement Shop Lighting

    Re: can lights in a basement: I had a leftover can light fixture from my kitchen remodel and thought it might work well at the foot of my basement stairs. It doesn't. :) I don't know if it's too close to the floor or what, but it throws a fairly narrow cone of light that does a great job...
