    Pics of the install? This is where having a clean, organized garage pays off. Good luck with the strut clamps on the A-arms, (if they're anything like the Mark V) IIRC, a 3/8" drive ratchet extension with split the socket if you don't have the OEM tool.

    ^^^^^ Ditto. The Ridgid SUV is very well regarded. But like the saw, wait for a sale, as regular price is probably about what you paid for the saw on sale. ;) That's what I'm doing. I'm making do with saw horses and such at the moment, and it makes every moment with my Bosch 12" SCMS much less...

    I don't really trust leaving my wheels and rotors to the torque sticks, nor do I like the price of a reputable brand set which comes with the couple specs you need plus a bunch of others yo'll probably never use.... so rather than being paranoid and "testing" each lug with the torque wrench and...

    dubber's double

    Yep. I have one I just bought in the fall after that big storm in Sept knocked out my Asus RT-N66U. Figured I may as well, since everything else in the house is Apple. As a WiFi access Point, it's great. Strong signal. never seems to drop out. Apple functionality (printing, Time Machine) is...

    Good plan. Every garage needs a couple 20A circuits, but 90% of stuff is fine with 15A.

    Preamble: A) From what I can find online, the Dewalt D15568 has a Motor Full Load Ampere (FLA) rating of 15A. B) Even though you're in Canada (I'm just down the road from you in Kanata) Most of the advice I've gotten on this relates to US NEC. I haven't tracked down the relevant Canadian...

    ShotBlaster vs. Edco vs. HD Dimabrush

    Definitely just you. If anyone even cares about the floor enough for it to matter to them, they'd probably rather pick their own floor covering when the time comes. No one is going to be any more turned off by a "messy" floor than by a floor covering product they don't like. I'd be more turned...

    That's how I got my 60 gallon Husky. Gift cards, a good sale one week, and another deal where with any flooring purchase over $100 you'd get back 10% of your purchase in HD gift cards. It was almost free. :D

    Questions about Hydronic Unit Heater for Garage

    What you have diagrammed there won't work, as you will only get hot water flowing through the heater when a hot water tap in the house is turned on. You need a circulator, like a Taco or a March, capable of supplying the 2-4GPM the unit requires. The pump will take water from the hot side of...

    The manual says it uses "Dessicant Silica Pellets"

    Critique my wiring plan...

    Yeah, just an old freezer that needs a new start relay to turn it into a kegerator...it doesn't belong there permanently. ;)

    Critique my wiring plan...

    Here you go. The first picture is in the low ~6.5' ceiling area (under the house front entrance). The compressor is more or less in its final position there. It can't go any farther into the corner, as it is as close to the HVAC trunk as I want it, to allow for maintenance, and its too tall to...

    will do... first thing tomorrow.

    Critique my wiring plan...

    Wouldn't be my first choice, but just for consistency, it would be nice to have a common breaker in my 3 panels. They're common in homes around here and the breakers are cheap, and common at the big box stores but no one seems to carry the panels. I'll have to check with some companies that...
