By me they are doing away w/ their partnership w/ sears and others may be as well. They're really trying to move these things. I'm not going to get into the China products vs. US produced argument but here are some decent deals IMO...

For some reason I found no info here. On sears site it says to call a # which is closed on weekends and no web page to search. I know Lowe's now sells them, do they do warranty replacements? Anywhere else given I'm not exactly near a Lowe's or a Sears store./ Thanks much Dave

So this is my first climate controlled garage. It'll never be below 68 degrees. Should I throw some fuel stabilizer, shut off the fuel and run the fuel out of the carb and put the battery on a trickle charger like you would when stored in the cold? It will probably be down for about 6 months...

I have a ryobi RY80940B 3,100 PSI pressure washer w/ a honda engine that seems to be acting strange lately. It always starts up perfectly but has a surge issue and also an issue w/ the RPM ramp up on occasion. I've looked at the exploded daigs to understand a bit more about how the governor...

I have gone through sets throughout the last 25 years and nothing seems to last. The teeth are just junk. Of course last time I went w/ the cheapy harbor freight 3 piece set and of course they are junk for anything other than light duty use. Was fighting some swap bar end links today and not...

I've got a softener 60 by kinetico and have been trying to find exploded diags or a service manual w/o much help. Of course kinetico just says to contact an authorized repair facility. I manually run through the cycles and the pressure does change so I know the valve is working. I suspect...

So I'm using kitchen cabinets which are exactly 24" deep. I'm going to rip a 4x8 sheet but with the width of the blade I won't have a full 24 deep for either board. I considered some type of cosmetic trim or backsplash if you will. Anyone have any suggestions what may look and work best...

Basically both the tank fitting and the regulator fitting will be the same height. They are 12" apart center to center. I want to put a ball valve between the two. Does anyone make a ball valve union in 1/2" NPT? I googled but didn't find anything. I am going to have a 1" stub off both...

So I am adding a garbage disposal and finally came up w/ and ugly way to make it work w/ elbows and what not but I'm pretty sure I cannot defy gravity here. In this situation is my only option to lower the drain or buy some type of pump to put that water up to the level of the drain? I'd have...

Air addmitance valve delete question We just put in a new single drain sink and a garbage disposal. The issue is the air admittance valve that is there right out of the wall sets the P trap too far and in fact the 90 out of the air admittance valve hits the garbage disposal. I was curious if...

So I am removing a double bowl sink and replacing w/a single. The original installer glued everything and I don't even have enough of a stub (I don't think) to slip anything over what is there. I would just cap the one if it wasn't exactly in the way of where the drain is going to be. What...

I am trying to get an old gas pump illuminated and of course the wiring/sockets are beyond use. What I have has a recess in it for power to feed from under it into the conduit. The OD is 2.5" and the spacing of the mounting screws is 1". Everything I seem to find either doesn't have the...

Reason I ask is that I am noticing that there are times the fan for compressor is running but not compressor then a bit later the compressor will come on (Doesn't seem to be consistent and can be 10-20 minutes all the while temp goes up a degree or two). I have a nest thermostat but i didn't...

My wife bought me an older gas pump for my birthday for my new house/garage and I would love to try to get info on it. I plan to disassemble it and make all electrics work, possibly install an electric pump connected to a switch or a raspberry pi/arduino to simulate pumping gas and also have...

I need to replace an E12 base where the middle pin was destroyed. I've removed the old socket from the LED housing. The base was destroyed due to bad design of the socket, not over current so no worries there. I wish I had not thrown out all of my old E12 candelabras as I could have...

So the garage is attached the house and has a solid 1" door per code. I want to add a window and I cannot unless I use a special glass (also by code). So my plan is to add a storm door w/ a full glass w/ a sliding top and remove the hinges from the door and store it in the basement. I will...

This may just be the way this cheap drill press is but it's the only experience I have w/ one so I don't know. The chuck will move a bit as I start to drill into a surface. IF sometimes will not be inline vertically as it starts to drill. I'm not sure if there is anything else I can tighten...

I feel like this didn't occur before but i don't recall. Reading reviews people say they use it for trim but given the staple width indentation even when nailing I find that hard to believe. I was looking to attach a pic of the indent it leaves but I cannot find one. It is the entire outline...

Basically I have a bunch of new doors and the opening for the latch face plate to go in is not deep enough for the faceplate to sit flush. It's a good 1/16" too shallow. The faceplate thickness is 1/8" and the recess is 1/8" I racked my brain trying to figure this one out. it does fit in my...

I don't know the first thing about installing doors except to ensure they are level and plumb. I paid someone to install these. I notice the top of the door that is furthest from the hinge on has a gap that is a good 3/8" larger than the bottom and tapers to tight like it should as you go...
