I bought 2 $20 TPLink router last year once I found out it was bridgeable. I watched a couple youtube videos on bridging routers and I was able to bridge my $20 TPLink to my crappy Centurytel modem/wifi router. My devices connect in between my 2 houses that are next door to each other with...

I have similar problems with my older 60x120 steel building built in the 60's. Surface rust and pin holes. Has anyone ever used the roof hugger system? What about the Ames research coatings?

I curious also....I have a single 26in craftsman stack and was tossing around the idea for a second 26in stack, but I like this HF box. I am curious how close the red colors are...I think 2 CM top boxes on this US Gen bottom would be cool. OR US Gen had a 50ish inch top box, but it was the...

Welcome Kurt, I am from KC too and also a garagaholic...

....

So I did a search here and did not come up with much. I am not sure if this belongs here or on the tools section either. But anyway, Have any of you guys done your own plating? I have seen the stuff on Casewells site and I do my own share of DIY - Powdercoating. I know I can buy their kit...

I had to comment, I know how some of you guys expect Snap-On quality from HF. I use them to move boats and trailers around my shop. I agreed that it takes effort to get them moving. To make it easier, I removed the wheels from the casters and ran them across my belt sander to remove the...

Hey KC...do you know the guys at kccoatings? I was asking you about coating one of my boat trailers last spring I think. I was quoted a really good price and will be doing that when and if I ever finish the cutting and welding. Moneypit...I recommend powdercoat, tough as superman's stones and...

excellent work so far Utah...suspended slab garages are quite common around here. I was building a house a few years ago on a corner lot in a subdivision. My garage was a typical 3 car attached about 27x35 up top and the drive around back had 2 doors and a work shop area, basically another...

So what do you guys use for cleaning solution. I have an old one a friend gave me, (made of SS). I haven't used it yet. We did use to use them at work to clean circuit boards...trichlorophane(sp?) was the solution...hehe:) On the tumblers, what media do you guys use? I have the little HF...

I used OSB for the interior walls on my basement shop area as well last year. I like the look of the chip design. My plan was to stain it with a semi transparent stain as someone mentioned before, but I haven't done that yet. I stained a piece with some dark walnut stain and it looked pretty...

I am asuming you have a powerstroke by your handle... How much height do you need, with roughly 33in tires, I bet you are not much over the 7ft mark ( meaning I doubt you are wanting a 10ft tall door, right ). I lifted my Ranger 9in and ran 35s and it still fit the 7ft door, barely. You sound...

Stirring the pot... I see this on here all the time...Air pressure rating is different than water pressure rating...and I just have to ask how? 100psi of water is the same as 100psi or air, is it not? you know, kinda like 100# of feathers and 10# of bricks... Please educate me. For the...

So how do some of you guys store your corded (and cordless) power tools. I have mine just thrown in one of my cabinets. Angle grinders, bufffer, drills, heat gun...etc. Post some pics if you got them. Thanks.

Re: Add a second "safety eye" to garage door to prevent (wife) from closing door on car?? That is familiar, last Friday, I got a call at work that my wife busted the back window out of out one month old Mariner SUV. The funny thing is the opener has the reversing eyes on it and the SUV has...
