Workers overhead with tools and fasteners. This is why they invented hard hats. It's a good policy everyone is wearing one.

This entire situation appears to be fuzzy. Logically, it seems some details are missing. Is there a co-signer? Are you certain the account is current? Are there missed payments in the account history? Does the Snap-On dealer have additional agreements beyond the credit agreement? Is the former...

When I had a concrete crew, we were adamant about pulling up the mesh. We used hooks made for the trucking industry to release 5th wheels. https://www.4statetrucks.com/31-inch-chrome-5th-wheel-pin-puller-with-s-hook-bar-style-handle-09-05110509 We used six of these on a pour. The light mesh...

I would increase the 20' depth to 24'. To keep the same basic design angle, increase the width of the long garage by 4' to 22'-8". You will never regret the extra space. a 20' deep garage is good for motorcycles and golf carts.

You have a great start to a nice Man-Room. There is room for a long narrow poker table and folding chairs. I had this set up with a quiet-running industrial high-quality exhaust fan. Scotch, beer, cigars, and Hold-Um poker. It was a popular neighborhood hangout. A small liquor cabinet, beer...

Is there any chance the neighbor's cat or dog didn't get in there and squat?:):rolleyes:

It depends on how many chargers you have. I can charge three M12s at a time. I have a 2.5 and two XC3.0 batteries that I use for my Milwaukee stick pump. The pump draws down a battery fairly quickly, but I can get through most any job with three batteries ready. If you have the chargers, I'd get...

Rubber hoses and cords roll when stepped on while on a pitch. I've had more than a few of my crew take a tumble when carrying a sheet of plywood or a bundle of shingles. I'd be cordless everywhere I could if I were still in the business. My crew liked the corded tools as they could lower them...

Like it or not, to a layman customer, a big part of a completed concrete is that it is cosmetically and visually pleasing. The pad may well be structurally sound, but it looks like ****. If you pour enough pads eventually you'll come across a load that sets too quickly. It could be the mix, the...

Plastic explosives are the answer.

What are the max weight ratings on these properly installed wall-hung toilets? Asking for a friend.

A neighbor bought an expensive bunk of naturally aged rough-sawn barn wood to panel an accent wall in his basement. He did a great job with the installation, even painting the sheetrock underlayment flat black to hide gaps. When done, it looked rustic, yet high-end. It took about a year for them...

The stall mats at Tractor Supply are very heavy-duty and durable. They're 4'x6'x .75" and can be cut to size. They last a lifetime. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/4-ft-x-6-ft-x-3-4-in-thick-rubber-stall-mat

I have covered many crashes where the trailer became uncoupled (Chains? We don't need no stinkin' chains) and the ball was still in the hitch. Nuts do come loose and nuts do fall off. The best fix I've seen is drilling a hole in the threaded shaft about a 1/2" from the bottom and installing a...

When I was In residential construction, virtually every tradesman, from the concrete guy up to the roofer used the Stanley Power Lock, either in 16', 25', or 30'. There is a reason for this. Now, a story about tapes in the trades. We were in Mexico, out in a small town on the Yucatan...

In farm country, we'd steal speed limit signs.

If you split it, it will only give you 20' of shop space. My full-sized pickup will not fit in our 20' deep garage. If possible, a 30'x 50' would give you a ton more space in the shop and keep the reasonable 20' for living quarters. Shops love to grow in the planning stages, but I think. if...

In a 4WD F150, all you'll need is decent M/S or All-terrain tires.

I've had good luck with my Icon mid-length 3/8" sockets and have read many good reviews. Could you elaborate on what your issue is with them? Especially since you plan on returning them. Just curious.
