    What do YOU want for Christmas?

    I can't say what I really want because someone would prolly get **** hurt and report me , then I'd get banned another week. But if I gotta say something, I just would like world peace, and 2022&24 to hurry up n get here, before I have to sell my oldest step child in order to fill my tank with gas.

    Steel building costs keep going up? Buy now or wait?

    Got a quote in the last month, 3600 sq. foot shop $125k uninsulated, 2500 sq. foot $87k. Both prices were only the building. Not ground prep, concrete, electrical, insulation, nothing more than the structure.

    What prevents you from buying additional tools?

    Currently because we are planning on moving, now that we are retired. Possibly across country. So trying not to accumulate any more things.

    think these lateral filing cabinets are a good find?

    I wouldn't pay more than $50. There's nothing special about used office furniture, it's everywhere around here as business' are being "forced" to shut down or move out of state, scale down, or whatever they want to call it. More people working remotely. Good luck with your sale.

    Why Do Electrical Plugs Have Holes ??

    According to YouTube they "factcheck" all content and remove only those videos which may question what they believe to be the truth. It's done to prevent mis-information getting to the common man who can't possibly make they're own decision.

    KN95 Mask Recommendation

    Yup. Masks are pointless if they are not "custom" fit. They also should be worn 1x, not repeatedly taken on & off to be worn over and over. Sorry I don't have a suggestion, or answer. I have facial hair and am not concerned about it not fitting properly for shopping activities, but I'd say the...

    Remember your PPE

    I'll be honest, I almost didn't click on this topic based on the title. I immediately thought someone would be screaming "the sky is falling," but decided to anyway since it wasn't the nightly news. Lol Glad I did, great reminder. I'll admit I'm not the best always putting on eye protection...

    Help with tall fence post sizing

    I had a neighbor like you who hated everything I did so much, that he refused to speak to me about any of his concerns. He felt he needed to complain to every government agency (sheriff, building and safety, regional planning, b.o.s., town council blah blah blah) until they all accurately...

    What's in your car kit?

    Very cool. May get one for the side x side. Only downside I could see is that it operates much like a roadside flare, not anything like a regular extinguisher that everyone is accustomed to seeing, handling & using. So if you weren't able to operate it yourself, or incapable of getting to it...

    Homemade jack pad for pinch seams

    Great idea. Not at all going to bash the idea, but the very first thought I had when looking at it was I'd be afraid the top part, where the seam runs , one or both of those "wings" would collapse under weight. I'm obviously no engineer , by my description, but just a concern from someone...
