    Entry Door with sidelights.... parts?

    No, they do not open. I will probably go with OccupantRJ suggestion, trim away the bad plastic trim and add pvc trim.

    Wen Mighty Stallion 960

    I was gifted a Wen 960 and thought I would change the blade at minimum. For the life of me, I can't find a spindle lock on it. I was able to hold the blade, but the nut and washer turned as well, not easily but turned. Can anyone provide some insight for blade removal on this saw?

    What do tool do you want to buy, that you have gotten by without all these years?

    Tow (wakeboard) boat raw water impeller puller. For over 10 years I used 2 paint can openers to pull it out, along with a lot of cussing. Then I purchased an impeller puller, should have got one on day 1 of owning a tow boat. Game changer, then sold the boat.

They are to the point they don't use, and it is a hoarder's nightmare. I keep trying to tell my wife and BIL we need to cull now as to they could help identify things...
