    Woot Customer service

    Had a issue with them once. Package never came. I had to do all the foot work with the shipping company file the claim and all that which is usually left to the shipper (woot). However, they did have tolerable email contact and I eventually was fully refunded. But, since the issue i've really...

    What do you use for pressing suspension bushings?

    Threaded rod with large washer or socket if there isn't space for anything else. Ball joint press seems to work the best. Then of course the manufacturers special tools if I'm at the shop.

    Max you can save is 23.5% this time unless you have the gift cards from last time. Also remember there are sales items from the previous sales add. I'm out for blood tomorrow. I've never been able to hit a high discount bag sale as they are often so short in duration. Had my eye on a 20v hedge...

    Menards 14% off bag in your paper, Sunday 1/19

    Not a bad rumor. The bag sales are usually in the neighborhood of 25% off. I was initially disappointed as I eagerly wait for bag sales as they are the best sales of the year it seems for things like cans of seafoam or household wiring. When I opened my Menards email and saw 14% I was like what...

    Menards 14% off bag in your paper, Sunday 1/19

You'll pay $7.65 for the Gift card. Using the gift...

    Lights for a 30x20 carport?

    My garage is the same size. 15 2 bulb 4ft T8 fixtures is the amount you need to get the recommended 100 lumens of light per foot. Depends on your ceiling height though I suppose. Ben

    No more Costco jacks

    Of course you could buy a new HF jack to replace the broken one. Then return the broken jack with the new ones receipt after 80 days or so (to seem realistic) for full refund. Done it with many tools. Just gotta out smart the system. Of course you could do it the right way to begin with by...

    Are junction boxes required for flourescent fixtures?

    So with 16 fixtures I'm imagining the only way to run them is with junction boxes as a wire entering and a wire leaving the fixture isn't allowed? Wires would have to be wire nutted in a junction box and a single cable run to each fixture?

    CREE 950 Lumen LED light $10

    Got mine yesterday. Its really bright I'd guess 200-300 lumens. Almost to bright on the high setting to be useful for close up mechanic work do to so much glare off the part. Overall build quality seems great so far very impressed for the money I spent. I bought it with the offered batteries and...
