That's the best way I can think of to describe what I want to do. My one-car bay is in the basement of my house, and I have an old RX7 that I am working on (not a lot of ground clearance). Problem is that there's a significant differential between the dirt outside and the concrete slab of the...

Asking a question for future reference here, there's nothing happening at work and I am bored. I have a 2-car attached carport on one end of the house. I am planning on closing it in at some point and changing it into a garage (I have lots of other projects around the place to get to before...

I need to buy/beg/borrow/steal a hammer drill to do some work around my basement (install footers for stud walls over concrete, drill holes for anchors to install new windows, etc). What should I be looking for in a hammer drill, and anybody think it's worth it to buy one, or should I rent...
