I have this 1948ish Coates Iron Tire Man...the first popular tire machine. Before this they did it by hand on the floor. And they were good and fast doing it that way. I sunk 4 drop in anchors in the garage floor and bolt it down when I need it and unbolt it and set it aside when not in use...

Got to take some pics today. I thought I could drag it out of the minivan by myself...seems I'm not as strong as I once was ;)

Thanks Hiball...I'll haul it over to the wand wash and get the big hunks off and then roll it over and see what shape it's in. On the cover for the cylinder it has "WALKER 4 TON" stamped in it and it is very long and heavy. The cover looks like it belongs but who knows. The ID sticker is...

Hi all I found an old Walker 4 ton floor jack in a junkyard, outside under a pile of ****. At this point I only have this picture because it's still in the minivan and the minivan is in for repairs. I notice that it's not as "Art Deco" as most I have seen. Is it a newer model or export? Are the...

Kind of a vague pointless post?? Which product? Which patent? Which "other" company?? How does this affect me, the consumer??? :headscrat

Thanks Charlie. I have checked out Armorthane and for me, Rhino has it beat a hundred different ways. I don't have to spend two days applying it is the first, the lifetime guarantee is next and the price is right. It's about 3 times thicker, it's safe for kids, no off gassing, well it's just a...

I've had some decent used carpet in my garage a few times from houses where folks bought new. It was great because it was free, but I sure wouldn't pay big bucks for carpet unless it was only for parking on The free stuff lasted about 4 years each time, then I just rolled it up and took it to...

I would offer it up for free to be moved or dismantled. Place an ad in the local papers and on Kijiji online. Check with a local building moving company as well, sometimes they will come get buildings to stock their sales lot to resell. If you can get rid of it without doing anything at all...

It's a special primer for the Rhino, and I think other companies have specific primers for their products.

I bought some cheapies on sale about 3 yrs ago. The last one dies about a month ago. Wasn't worth the hassle to save a few bucks. I replaced them with good contractor units from a local wholesaler. Not cheap but I won't likely have to replace them in my lifetime. I also watch sites like Kijiji...

Rhino it...if it will put up with horses, it should put up with what you'll do with it, and it's guaranteed for life. Just make sure they prime bare new plywood before application. If you already have Line-x on te walls, get them to do the floor...again new bare plywood needs primer. Have the...

Put 2 inches of Styrofoam under the wood for some nice warm floors. I would use 5/8 pressure treated T&G, prime and paint both sides. It's my experience that plywood painted on only one side will peel and chip, painted both sides won't. The only thing concerning me on the wood/Styrofoam would...
