    Replacing Discontinued Kobalt Socket Set at Lowes

    I purchased this set from Lowes a couple of years ago, https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-Steel-Grip-8-Piece-Metric-3-8-in-Drive-6-Point-Socket-Set/1000080559 The teeth fell apart on a couple of sockets after light use. To me, these were obviously not worth buying in the first place when real...

    Digital Caliper for the all-round DIYer

    I'm not a machinist by any means. But for the all-round DIY'er, is a Mitutoyo Caliper (the model that hovers around the $100 mark) overkill? I've been using the cheap calipers off Amazon for a while now, but sometimes the sliding mechanism is not as smooth as I'd like it to be, and...

    Harbor Freight's Replica of Husky's 46" 9-Drawer Workbench

    I wouldn't be surprised if they are made in the same factory as Husky's. Though, the Husky had a more refined finish and polished look. May be its just my perception... Here it is though for $279 (plus tax) Notice how the handle is affixed on the other side. Husky's workbench has the handle...

    Need a Quality Tamperproof Bit Set

    I just tried using a Harbor Freight Tamperproof bit set, particularly the spanner insert bits, and they are pathetic in terms of quality--the spanner insert bits broke among first use, those prongs are pretty flimsy and delicate--they bend easily and eventually break off. Does anyone know of a...

    Amcrest vs. Swann CCTV Surveillance Systems

    If you were left with two options, Amcrest (Dahua-branded) or Swann (Hikvision-rebrand), which would you choose? What sets their NVR's apart? Does the Amcrest NVR offer more versatility (third-party) over the Swann? Or are both fairly equally crippled by their proprietary coding? Swann's...

    All of my Garage Door Opener questions in one thread

    Should I replace the old angle iron piece which were affixed to my old garage door opener? Or is it safe to use the existing pieces with the new opener? I'm in the preparation phase of installing a Chamberlain GDO soon.

    Is there a non-Liftmaster Garage Opener with Deadbolt Available?

    It doesn't feel right having to get out of the car to unlock the garage deadbolt, get back in the car, then park the car in the garage all the time (vice versa). Very little clearance as well when opening the driver side door as it makes contact with a wall and when it rains / snows, it makes...
