In the garage I organized and cleaned loft parts storage, I need to build a couple shelves for heavy parts. Finished trim on mud room door windows, let's a ton of morning light in now plus I'm not taking a door to the head when somebody wings it open. On my patio I did some el cheapo...

Took a week off from work and brought a dumpster in. Cleaned out the garage and can actually get a car in there now!!!!!! My car tools, exercise equipment, reloading table, all the horse tack and the sewing machine are all in place and the Falcon fits!!! I can even close the door with the car in...

I went with the Liftmaster 8500 also. Super quiet belt driven machine. It has a good motor, can take a bbu. WiFi is really reliable. Use my phone all the time to operate my door. _________________________ My website

Worked on cleaning up and organizing the garage this past weekend. Did task from my daily planner Moved my racking over to the wall and reset the shelves, utilizing 1 as a bench and reset for storage. Tomorrow still some work to go (and a hanging gas heater to install).

I bought an air powered Bostitch stapler for my floors. It did a great job across the 1800 square feet of engineered hardwood I installed. I believe it's limited to 5/8" thick material.

My coworker bought this Electric Ryobi Rider for under $2,300 They also make a unit with a slightly larger battery for $2,700. He absolutely loves it. Mows just over an acre. Can do his entire lawn twice without needing to charge. The only noise is the blades spinning. Very comfortable. Feels...

I gave the bench top a little sanding. I'm thinking since I've decided today is a rest day from cycling, I'll clear the bench off and do another full up sand, polish, oil and polish. It is sort of like practice for the dining table top I need to get after, which will include stain. Then I...

I had a Mr. Heater Big Maxx 45,000 BTU natural gas garage heater at my last house in a 400+ square foot garage (https://cozzy.org/best-garage-heater/) Two mostly uninsulated walls, insulated garage door, ceiling had house above, all drywalled. Would easily keep the garage at 70 degrees plus...

I have a Generac 5000w/7500w that although not the quietest has worked very well over the years. We can lose power fairly frequently where I live having it go out for a week is not that uncommon. Lost it for 13 days once. The main thing to consider is what is the most important piece of...

I have a big gas PW for big jobs and a Ryobi 14122 electric for washing the boat, truck, etc. I use the electric 90% of the time. Its awesome for cleaning up the boat. I run hot water through it with some car soap in the soap dispenser and it takes salt off everything without touching a brush...

I thought long and hard about buying a Dyson (and planned to for many years), but I couldn't justify (much less afford) the price. There was also the concern about the Dyson ball technology being able to get around/under beds and furniture (At first I bought for home) I ended up getting the...

Have a look at the Stihl BR200, its a backpack with decent power, very light. Youll get tired of holding the handheld blower day after day for longer periods of time, especially when it comes time to blow leaves. Everyone here says to get the biggest backpack you can afford to start off with.But...

I get Gaggia Classic above 8 years, no complaints. .Never buy machine with a built in grinder and the machine in question has Ok at best built in grinder. Been needs to be kept cool, dry and dark and none of those qualities on a machine with a built grinder.

Thanks, Paul ! Will be keep in mind !

I’ve got a few Tekton tools, and it seems the ones I got most recently are of better quality. If this holds true across the whole brand, I believe I will start viewing them less as a source for ‘cheap’ tools and more of a source for decent tools at reasonable prices. I do have certain tools that...
