I have a 3/4 drive Pittsburgh torque wrench. It's been fine for years and years. But the handle came apart and it just doesn't make sense. The threaded threaded piece bottomed out into the nut leaving only a couple of threads for the barrel. There is nothing that holds that threaded piece into...

I'm concerned about drips and splashes, not gallons. My rock crawler has a tendency to drip for a few days after an incident.

I was thinking about buying a piece of vinyl flooring to put under the lift to protect the floor from fluids when I'm working on a project. And thoughts on this?

I recently did the PS103 PS100 combo on a new shop. It's been down about a month. I can pour cutting oil on the floor and it beads up. You can wipe it right up. But I haven't done a long term test, I should do it in a spot I'm going to cover.

Any DIY vintage fridge help in here? I picked up an old Frigidaire fridge for the shop. Early 50's I believe. It's in good shape cosmetically, the seller told me it runs, but the cord was damaged, so it needs a cord. Well, it was a bargain, and I figured I could fix it. Well, of course they...

Led or not, they are pulling 12 amps

I just built a 40x40×14 addition to my existing shop. I have 16 8' LED strip lights. I'm thinking about an occupancy senor(s) to turn the lights off when I walk out. But, I'm the sole occupant. I dont want disco lights going on and off, and I dont want to be waving my arms to get the lights...

My slab was poured Oct of 2024. I was told that 4 weeks in the sun would remove the coating, the UV destroys it. We built on it in March of 2025, so it was out in the Nevada sun for 5 months. But, water still beads up on the floor, so I'm told that I can't use a penetrating sealer until it's...

How did that work out? I have 2 12' doors and I was thinking about doing the same thing.

Lifting the existing building that it is attached to was a bit more complex than building a drain.

Now this is something I would do! LOL Thanks for the idea.

I expanded an existing building. If the new floor was not at the same elevation it would make transferring equipment and materials difficult from building to building.

Does anyone have experience with trench drains in a driveway? First, I live in the desert outside of Las Vegas. We don't get much rain. But when we do there is considerable runoff. My new addition to my shop had to have a reversed slope to the garage doors because of the grade, and the...

I hate to even start yet another thread about Sealers. But I'm on the fence with this. 8510 vs PS103? Hype vs cost I have 1600sq feet of floor, it was poured last Oct and 1100 cure was applied when it was poured. It's a home metal/auto shop. And I hate oil stains, but can't see a topical...
