    General anti-skid question

    Did not end up doing that third coat. I have a few rollers marks that might drive me crazy later but after feeling the floor with bare feet after the second coat with anti-skid mixed in, I decided the floor would would be too much like coarse sandpaper. So I left it with just the two coats...

    My Compressor Score

    The oil wasn't as dirty as I thought it would be. But I have peace of mind knowing its clean now. Got a cheap regulator that will do for now from HF and a 50' 3/8" goodyear hose and assorted fittings. Once I'm sure I like where it rests I'll plumb some black iron to the center of the garage...

    Hot Water Heater Issue

    Who knows where the threads are now. Plumber said they deteriorated. And yes it was threaded into the brass tee. I'm assuming it was cross threaded originally. The plumber went to his truck and came back with the copper 5" ******. No adapter. Threaded it onto the tank and into the tee...

    Hot Water Heater Issue

    Hmm where are the threads?? The 5" ****** was replaced with copper. For peace of mind and a piece of my wallet I had a plumber come out. The ****** could have easily been replaced myself but I was concerned there might have been corrosion in the inlet of the tank. Thinking it was cross...

    Hot Water Heater Issue

    Thanks Frank for the reply. It looks like the tank has a dedicated outlet and the three prong cord is intact. Im considering talking to the homebuilder warranty before tackling this myself since I don't think this will be covered by the tank's warranty. Would you say the builder should have...

    Hot Water Heater Issue

    Which serpentine belt tool do you recommend for Honda/Acura?

    I used a 14mm and 15mm combination wrench. Put the 14mm closed end on the tensioner and lock the two open ends together. :fro:

    Storage Units - Gladiator Vs Sam's Club

    I have two Seville tall cabinets. Even though they are not welded they are pretty sturdy once put together. Assembly isnt bad after the first one. I like everything about them but the gray finish, so i lightly sanded them and painted semigloss black. I also am not a fan of the diamond plate...
