    The Best Consumer 3D Printer

    I love mine. Absolutely great printer. I started off with a cheapo Aliexpress/Ender3, which got me the 3d printing bug, but I wound up spending more time fixing failed prints than actually printing. So it sat and collected dust. I watched while 3d printing tech matured, and then Bambu hit...

    Best Ratcheting Screwdriver? New to the forum

    Don't sleep on the Channel Lock ratcheting screwdriver. I think I read about it here of all places (a while back). https://www.homedepot.com/p/Channellock-13-N-1-Racheting-Screwdriver-CODE-BLUE-at-Grip-131CB/203416112 It's _really_ nice. Made in Canada I believe.

    Who makes good garden hose?

    I was really sick and tired of terrible hoses, and the plastic bins you roll them into. Think sunguard (?) Mine always break, the hoses are heavy and kink and makes everything a huge pain in the ***. I bought this from McNaught...

    what is this? Oiler or grease ******?

    Hello - I've got an old 20" Crescent Heavy bandsaw. I've got it wired up with a VFD and it's running. I'm still figuring out tuning the bandsaw, blade tension etc. But, I've got a few of this grease or oil ports - see pic. I think this bandsaw is from the 40's. I've never seen anything like...

    SK Order

    Well, got an email saying my order was cancelled. Not really surprised. I'll wait a bit and try again, perhaps they'll have their issues sorted.

    SK Order

    I thought I recall something about SK being sold? If so, I am really disappointed - love their tools. I recently (well, maybe not so recently now) placed an order on their website, paid and expected shipping notification a few days later. In reality - nothing. I contacted them, and haven't...

    cleaning old tools - black stain on hands

    Hello - I've got an old set of craftsman allen wrenchs (made in the US) I picked up cheap. They were dirty and had been sitting in a toolbox for who knows how long. Cleaning them up - using cleaners, ultrasonic bath, and then finally a wire wheel on the bench grinder. They look much better...

    Hi - Looking to upgrade my pancake compressor (DeWalt) to something a bit bigger/better/quieter. Really, that's one of my top requirements, is not to be deafened anytime I run the compressor. As I am setting up my garage "shop" (mostly wood working) I am thinking about getting a midsized...
