    outdoor wirelss Bridge and AP for Wifi from house to Shop what ones do you guys recommend ?

    I'm into the ubiquity/unifi/UISP ecosystem pretty deep. M5 Nano Station Locos are a pretty cost effective choice for your situation if you have good line of sight. If you want a full gigabit connection, get the Wave Picos. If you don't have good line of sight, rent a ditch witch, dig a trench...

    Running dc power from battery to trailer hitch portal winch.

    I'd probably do what Carlaisle and set up a deep cycle battery right on the trailer with a maintainer to keep it topped off when not in use. Run the 12v+ off the trailer plug to keep it topped off while driving. If you do the welder cable route, I'd go ahead and do disconnects to both the...

    Shop bathroom

    When I did my shop bathroom, I was in the same situation, didn't want to make another hole in the exterior wall. What I did instead was use a grower exhaust fan with a carbon filter and vented it to the shop space. Works like a champ.

    unloading workbench from trailer without forklift?

    20ft log chain looped on each end of the table. Grab the chain with a cherry picker in the middle, lift it up, move the trailer, set the bench back down where you need it.

    Flush Cutters for plastic welder staples

    Nippers maybe? I use side cutters then finish with flap wheel to smooth things out. As far creating some surface damage from grinding, the fact that you're hot stapling kind of presupposes damage in the first place and and it's generally acceptable at that stage of the repair. I've repaired...

    BendPak P-9000LT Low Rise Lift Concrete Floor Requirements

    4 inches is plenty if the concrete is in good shape. You could set that on gravel and be fine.

    Milwaukee M12 battery warranty

    My local dealer handles my battery warranties. That's why I get pretty much all of my Milwaukee stuff through him, even though you can pick it up off Ebay/Amazon for cheaper. Plus, he has records so I don't need to keep track of receipts. He's done about 5 or 6 6.0 under warranty for me. They...

    Tools you thought you'd love and just don't

    I'd have to say my Astro Thor impact. Had a ton of great reviews from all the usual tool social media accounts. Grabbed one when they were available. I just don't think its a great gun, performance-wise or ergonomically. The 2 stage trigger is garbage and its not comfortable to use at all. I...

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    The 296x is a much better gun than the first gen. $249+ the free battery is an ok deal. If it were me, I'd grab a bare tool off fleabay for much less and put the difference towards the new Forge battery.

    Need Suggestions for a SECURE Garage door

    If you have the means, I would find another place to park the trailer. Unless the original thief was caught, chances are he is somebody close who is familiar with the area and will strike again. You can add extra security to the door, but a steel building is fairly easy to break into through the...

    Rural King is pretty awesome

    Did an internet search a few days ago for an item and they had what i needed. Not one close to me(wish there was), but I ordered a couple of things from them today online. Seen they had a 30lb. bottle of r-134 for $80 on a special in-store buy.
