We had 6" of snow last winter and the chain froze solid. Didn't seem to hurt anything. We have 2 16' chains in the back of our house and I was concerned about the weight. Hasn't been a problem in 10 months.

We replaced our downspout with a rain chain. It drains into a catch basin. It has worked great for us.

This is the one I built 10 or more years ago. It has served me well.

I used Pex-AL-Pex in my shop. Bought a roll online. The only issue was trying to straighten it out to install in on the wall.

I had my local Lennox dealer install a 2 ton mini split in my shop last fall. I paid $3,500.

I just finished plumbing my shop and I used Pex-AL-Pex. 3/4" for all the runs. The hardest part was straighten the coil before the install.

I use non-ethanol fuel and haven't need any additives.

Add me to the HF drain. I also have a couple of the HF high stands. Both have worked fine.

I have the Avid Pro4848. It's sold as a kit and it took a couple of days to put it together. I stepped up to the spindle. Not the cheapest way to go but it seems to be very rigid and can handle higher feed rates. I didn't want to buy or build a machine twice. I've been using it for 6 months...

I used the Smartside Profiles siding on my shop. In the process of replacing the siding on my house with it. Shop was built 3 years ago I'm very happy with the look.

Submitted April 27th and received a electronic check on May 5th. I bought my oil at Walmart. I don't think I'll do the electronic check again. When I took the check to the bank they looked it over and said no thanks. I brought the check home a deposited it with my phone. I can wait for a...

Find a lawn mower repair shop and see if they have a broken mower that is not worth fixing and buy the hood. They sold a huge number of these mowers and I'm sure there are lots of them around that could be used for parts. If you can't find one use it without the hood.

I have a BendPak xpr-10as set up wide and it has lifted everything I own from my 1/2 ton extended cab pick up to my daughter's 2010 Honda Fit. I have to admit the Fit was a little concerning trying to get it balanced on the lift. Really short and a lot of weight on the front.

I had a 2 post bendpak lift installed on my epoxy floor and it has been fine. The floor installer told me he like to put the floor down before a lift. To hard to cut around the lift and he thought it looked better. The lift installers didn't need to use an shim to level the lift so it is...
