Are you using the EZ-Set torsion spring system? And what chart are you referencing? The spring winding table in the instructions for the EZ-Set indicate that you need 12 3/4 wraps for a 8' high door.

If you're trying to remove a small screw from an electronic device, go ahead and get the screwdrivers for the tamper-proof screws and avoid the headache. Also, the bit sets may not have the reach to get into the small holes the screws are probably recessed in. And if you for some reason decide...

I have the whole weekend free. I can be in Grand Bay in about an hour, with my truck and trailer. I'll be glad to haul it off for you. :)

Is the board set up that way, or is it just me? Doesn't seem to work. :headscrat

Well, that's confusing. That's the page it links to from my account, but I paid no shipping, because it was eligible for free super saver shipping, and I got them from Amazon, not Northern Tool. And they weren't $29.95, either. I bought 2 pair, and also picked up the Blitz wheel chocks from...

I realize this thread is slightly dated, but I found these on Amazon, for your consideration: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00026Z3E0/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Not a bad price, either. I've ordered two pair for myself, since I got a real good scare from the ratcheting type I currently have...

This probably won't make anyone feel a lot better about the situation, but gasoline vapor (the flammable part) is denser than air, and as such tends to stay low. This is why water heaters in the garage should be a couple of feet above the floor. So unless your garage door opener happens to...

Thanks for all of your input. I spotted it at a Mustang show this past weekend, and I just couldn't pass it up for the paltry sum of $10. I imagine that between my dad and I, we can make some use of it, if we can sort out how it works. Heck, maybe we can finally figure out why that old 8N...

Well, it has leads a-plenty, but no manual. I think I've found the model number. Looks like 1612182? Need to find a manual for it.

See, this is what comes of spending time on this forum. I have no idea how to use something like this, but thought it would at least be cool to have in the garage. There has to be a name for this condition. Anyone want to clue me in on the many uses of this thing?

Hm. February of 2010. When he said to keep the comments coming, I wonder if he meant 13 months later. :lol_hitti

Is there a way for admin to archive older threads so that they can't be resurrected from the dead? There are quite a few I've seen today that are being dredged up and commented on as though they're current, which can be confusing. Also, it seems like a good way to stop the spammers from adding...

The original post is nearly two years old. Why'd we bring this up again?

Gee, this whole "******* in the Wynn" thing looks promising and all, but to get back to the OP's topic: while I don't know diddly squat about this so-called Power Purge, I do know that there's no way in hell I'd get near an AAMCO with my car either. Nor for that matter, any Midas, Cottman, or...

http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85668&page=9 post number 178 (mine). Admittedly I don't move the car around much, but no problems so far.

I got my March 2011 HF flier in the mail today. The mechanical wheel dollies are $59.99 again, with a limit of 5. As far as I'm concerned, this is a great deal; I got a set of these in June of 2010, and I wish I'd gotten them this cheap! I reviewed them here back then, and I still feel like I...

The guy that's coming out Thursday to finish pouring the rest of my driveway, said no traffic for 7 days after it's poured. Especially my F250. So we'll be making an alternate route thru the yard for a week.

That looks nice. What software did you use to do that? The rendering looks good. Do you have any pictures of the finished product?

Hi, all I'm trying to find a set of the smaller torx screwdrivers, sizes T-1 thru T-8. I found this Wiha set on Amazon that have good reviews, but I'm concerned about the handles. I'm looking for something with a more conventional handle, more "full-sized", and not having much luck. I'd...
