Here is my haul today from an estate sale. I got the half gallon of Mineral Spirits and half of a quart of acetone free just for hauling it off. The jack was $5.00. I would not usually buy a jack like that but for $5.00 I can use it to loan to son in laws and and neighbors and do not have to...

As others have said you probably will not find anybody open that sells Termidor. You can go to Lowes or HD and get enough Bayer Advance Termite killer to treat the outside of the shop. It has Imidicloprid in it which is what a lot of Pest Control folks use. Easy to put out.

Re: what did you do in your garage today? Changed to air filter on my mower. Bored with not a lot to work on.

Got my Fan Done! A couple of months ago, Paulie posted on this thread his fan that he finished. That motivated me to put mine together. Good thing, it was almost 90 here today! Thanks Paulie for the PM with how to do this. What do you think? The fan and motor were free from garage sale. Wheels...

I also need to get that question answered. Plus, I have a 100 amp panel and need to install a water heater that will require 240 and two 60 amp breakers. Is that doable? Either answer will be helpful. Thanks, Nog

Re: what did you do in your garage today? Here is mine if the pictures post. Got this one from a garage sale. Guy had to get everything out of his shop that day so I offered to haul it off for him. Now I know what I'll be doing in the shop next weekend. Thanks for the PM Paulie! Joe

I guess if you start posting to every thread like this you can get there quicker! Nog

Re: what did you do in your garage today? Wow. That is awesome. I have almost the same fan in my shop that I picked up. It needs to be put in a cage like yours. What did you frame it with? Is it a metal casing or is it wood. It will be hot in Florida soon and I need to get something to move a...

Peddler for a major chemical company for 33 years. Tinker around my shop on small engines, my 1990 Airstream TT and other junk. Usually can fix it if it can be.

I won a Craftsman Toolbox I owe somebody a big thank you for sending me to Ace Hardware. Who posted the ad for the Gearwrench wratcheting wrenches that was on sale at Ace for $9.99. I went in on Friday and bought the 4 piece metric and a set of Craftsman screw drivers for $9.99 each. At the...

You might try ACE Hardware. They usually have a good selection or can have most anything shipped to the store free. I needed some big sockets, 3/4 inch drive, and bought from them 15 years ago. Do not use that set much but never have had a problem when I do. They do come with a lifetime...

I'd make the contractor tear it out and pour again . It will never be right.

I have bought 2 six foot rolling scaffold in the last 2 months. Very handy and I could stack them to reach 20 ft if I had the outriggers. I found both on Craigslist. One for $50. and another for $75. Good luck getting yours. Nog

John's point is very valid. Take care of the wife first, unless she really is nuts. If so, tools ain't going to help. Cheers, Nog
