    Amazon Super Saver Shipping threshold is now $35.00

    The streaming movies is just an added benefit of Prime. On that note however, we have Prime, Netflix, and Hulu and still pay way less than we could for cable or satellite. We buy everything we can from Amazon. If it's something we don't need right away, and it's prime eligible, why go to the...

    Amazon Super Saver Shipping threshold is now $35.00

    Prime member here. Even now that they are collecting taxes here in Texas I still think it's worth it. We spend hundreds a month on Amazon. Time and money saver for us.

    Gladiator GearTrack for Garage Wall Issue

    Most wall studs are 16" apart, although I've seen 24". If you can't find them then I would do as suggested and attach a 2x6 and then attach the panel to it.

    A lesson in respect

    I'm kind of surprised at the sticker shock of the gripper product. Especially from a forum where so many members will spends who knows how much on brand name tools for the sake of the name. ;) For the record, it's $150 for two, not one. It's designed in a way that you can usually use it...

    That is the fancy 'stick'. That is your homemade push stick. :D

    Milwaukee M-12 heated jackets $99 at Home Depot

    I didn't even know these were a thing. I use a Dewalt platform so I don't want another type of battery, but it looks like Dewalt has a jacket as well. Pretty neat.

    $11 7-pc Craftsman 12pt Ratcheting Wrench Set (SAE)

    I've had a single 3/4 ratcheting wrench for awhile. No idea where it came from. Used it yesterday in fact. I like it. For ~$12 I don't mind adding some more to the tool box.

    A lesson in respect

    Lol. I just have one. So it was ~$60 I think. Hard to put a price on safety though. And with the gripper you know you have control of the piece you are working on. Not just 'pushing', it's locked down to where you want it to go. You have pressure on the piece three different ways. Maybe not...

    A lesson in respect

    Of all my tools the table saw makes me the most nervous. Maybe nervous isn't the right word, maybe the most cautious. I started using one of these last year and I really like it. Well worth the money.

    CREE 950 Lumen LED light $10

    Get this one from Amazon and don't think twice. Hell, buy 20 like I did and pass them out. They are unbelievable for the price. Single AA battery. If you wan't a bit brighter and heaver, buy this one. It's not 1000 lumens as stated but it's crazy bright. Both are shipped from China so expect...

    Husqvarna 150BT Backpack Blower $249

    From what I've read the 350 is the same platform, different tube sizes. And a different harness? Not sure on that. I hope the 150 will serve just as well. I really like Husqvarna's products. All my power equipment has slowly turned orange...

    Husqvarna 150BT Backpack Blower $249

    I'm glad to hear good reviews. I liked the 130, but felt it was just a little underpowered.

    Harbor freight must haves?

    I just picked up the 25" breaker bar last week for $9. Awesome deal. I like their 'mechanix' knock off gloves too. I have several pairs around the garage. I picked up a whole bunch of clamps for $2 a piece. I don't expect them to hold up but if they get me through a couple projects I will be...

    septic system questions

    Holy cow. Once a year for a septic tank? My parents are on a septic tank system and it's going on, I don't know, 15 years or so and it's still working fine. Granted, that's probably not the best way to operate but I think 8-10 years is pretty normal. Me on the other hand. I have an aerobic...
