I've got an 18" Grizzly Band Saw that I'm trying to wire for 110v. It was my fathers, but he had it running on 220v. I don't have 220v in my garage, and since the motor shows it's capable of both, I'd like to switch it. I bought a new switch, and thought I had it wired correctly, but it's...

Any value to these? I picked them up over the years, but am trying to clean things out. The smallest box end wrench is marked powerkraft. The socket is marked indestro select. The nut driver is marked spintite. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I finally got my own garage when we bought our house in 2011. The house was built in 1959, and we bought it from the original owner. The garage is roughly 14' x 19', with a narrow (7'8") garage door and low (7'-4") ceiling. Not that large, but it was mine. These photos date to 2012 or so...

Anyone need a box for an old Black and Decker 1/4 inch drill? Free - just pay the cost of shipping.

My compressor seems to have developed an oil leak. Any guesses how hard it will be to fix? What will I need? I bought it uses for $50 around 9 years ago, and mostly use it for airing up motorcycle tires or occasionally running a small nail gun for woodworking. Looks like I could replace it...

Are there any websites that you'd recommend for learning the basics of residential electrical wiring? I know how 12v automotive works, but the A/C stuff just seems like voodoo. A website that starts with the theory would be great - I need to understand the big picture before I get down into the...
