    Riding Mower Battery Life

    I keep a trickle charger on both of my tractors batteries when not in use. Once a season I disulfate them with a separate smart charger. They are both over 8 years old. One is in a Simplicity mower and the other is in a 1979 Wheelhorse tractor.

    No running water, but need ideas...

    I trenched about 90' and ran pex water line. The guy I hired to wire the garage ended up running the electric, water and natural gas line to the shop in the same trench. Well worth it and was actually reasonable. I had him set up a drain valve in my basement so I can shut off the water and empty...

    Drill Doctor 750X. Yay or nay?

    Well worth the money in my opinion. Never have a dull drill in any of my indexes. As many have pointed out it takes a few tries to understand the concept and a steady hand motion. There are other more expensive alternatives but for the average guy this works just fine. If you don't plan to...

    Blowing out water lines ....

    Bellyupfish, , sounds like a similar situation at my place. When the weather turns cold I use compressed air to blow the water out but I blow it back towards my house. When I installed the line I put in a drain valve in my basement above the utility tub.

    What to put on walls?

    I used 1/2" sanded plywood from Lowes on walls and ceiling. Screwed every 6". Very sturdy. Good primer and paint and you're all set. Hang anything anywhere.
