    Craftsman 3100 2.8 GPM Pressure Washer pump erratic

    Excellent. Glad to hear. It's a good idea to always drain it well and blow the pump out (using compressed air) after each use. Cheers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sounds like a sticky unloader valve to me. A pretty common issue on less expensive PW's that can happen when the pump is not fully drained and cleared out (I use compressed air to clear mine) after each use. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Whatever member you cut, just think about the job it's doing and the sort of load it handles (tension, compression) and make sure you compensate with adequate members to assume that load . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The new 50k Big Maxx heaters reliability

    I just posted a new thread yesterday about my 50k Mr. Heater cracked fan blade after only two months of operation.

    Is there an overhead door weatherstripping that actually works?

    Thanks c7fx, I did search and didn't find any homemade solutions. I personally think that most of the jamb seals/weatherstripping products offered at the stores are garbage.

    Is there an overhead door weatherstripping that actually works?

    I'm tired of those cheap vinyl (faux wood) strips with thin vinyl flaps that are supposed to provide a jamb seal for an overhead door. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about here, right. Every big-box home improvement store here in the US carry's them, and nearly every garage door installer...
