    need jaws for Schick pipe wrench

    I found my at a garage sale. The 24” Schick head/neck unit was replaced with a Ridgid 24. I’m betting the schick neck was wider then the Ridgid, as the fit is looser then my other pipe wrenches. For 50 cents I’ll keep it.

    Damp concrete shop floor

    Thanks for all the replies. The strange thing is my garage that's attached to the house stays dry all the time and isn't insulated.

    French Drain Questions

    In an attempt to stop any ground water from finding its way under my slab and down spout water from pooling, I'm installing a french drain. My plan is to run 2 3" drain pipes. One pipe will be solid for the down spouts and the other will be perforated for ground water collection. This all...
