    So after changing the cables I wound one of my garage door torsion springs the wrong way

    I was being so safe that I wound one of my torsion springs in the wrong direction. The end of the spring skipped over the edge of the winding cone and I tried to back it off by tapping the winding bar (unwound spring) with a hammer, I even tried the pipe wrench over the end of the coil. That...

    Thoughts on Prefabricated Wood I-Joists vs lumber

    What are your thoughts on a house constructed with prefabricated wood I joists on 24” centers (maybe 20”)? I looked at a 1985 built house yesterday (similarly built McMansions all over the neighborhood) and when I was in the basement I looked up and noticed that there was no 2x10 lumber for the...

    Dewalt DW4055 Sanding Frame / Inversion Stand for belt sanders $15.00

    That’s what I was hoping for with the thread resurrection lol. I figured there had to be somebody out there who has the sanding frame but no longer has the tool. Hell for that price I would have grabbed an extra one or two myself. I still need a dust bag and the plastic holder/ bracket that...

    Any Chance that one of you guys bought this Dewalt sanding frame and didn’t use it? I have a Dewalt Dw433 sander and would love to have one. Thanks

    Bendpak Gun Metal Grey color matching paint?

    I looked everywhere for a good oil based paint to match the frame of my SteveO workbench to my new grey Bendpak lift. I finally got a perfect match when I went to Home Depot and bought a 1 gallon can of rustoleum professional in smoke grey and an additional quart of the same paint in gloss...

    US general toolbox key

    Along the same lines, does anyone know where I can get keyed alike barrel style locks for my US General boxes? I hate having 3 boxes with 3 different keys

    Dimming LED flat 2x4 panel lights

    Thank You Cybrdyke - That’s exactly what I was looking for. I have never used low voltage dimming lights. I will wire them up separately and use 2 dimmers.

    Dimming LED flat 2x4 panel lights

    I wired up 2 Hykolity LED 2x4 5000k flat panel lights over my workbench in the garage. The light is good except except at night when it’s a bit too bright so now I want to dim them. I read that I need to wire the 2 dimmer wires with 18 guage wire to a certain kind of dimmer. Does anyone have...

    The Best Light Fixture Ever!

    It’s a small area and there really aren’t going to be many lights so cost is not so much a factor for me. Even if I have to buy the surface mount frames - not a big deal. Were only talking 2 or 3 of these 2x4 flat panels in total. What I’m more concerned with is that they put off enough...

    The Best Light Fixture Ever!

    I’ve read and searched and read some more. I wanted to light my small workshop/ workbench area (8’ wide x 18’ long with 9’ high Sheetrock ceiling) with LED high hats but now I understand that highhats **** so I might just put a few directly over my built in 10’ (Steevo) workbench. After...

    Spring Cleaning (My shop’s story)

    I’ve been meaning to IM or email you about that for sale post for months. The only thing holding me back is that I’m afraid that if I do, I’ll end up with another car in my driveway. Where in NY are you without giving away too much? I’m in Queens
