This will be for my father's shop in South Dakota. We're looking into electric instant hot water heater unit. The largest demand would be for washing vehicles (using mixing value). We would like a good flow rate to knock off the dirt, etc. I'm thinking 3-4 GPM would be a good flow rate for this...

A couple summer ago, my uncle's garage opener suddenly became non-responsive to all remotes. It was quickly determined that the receiver (external) got fried from a thunderstorm. So I ordered a complete replacement set of remotes and receiver for the Allister brand garage opener. This is the...

Just curious why it seems to me that 8" bench grinder is a popular choice? From what I understand, the ideal speed is approximately 5000 to 5500 "linear" feet per minute. Many of them are available with 1800 and 3600 RPM motors. At 3600 RPM, the 8" grinding stone would be spinning at 7540 FPM...

Getting ready to order a USA made Wilton vise model C-0 or C-1. Only problem is I cannot find a good detailed specifications on those models. Do anyone have the measurements or even better, a photo showing the scale of those vises?

I'm looking for #344454180 (for grinder) and #344454110 (for drill/driver). Where would be a good source to order/buy those optional Metabo carrying cases online? I checked with CPO Metabo and they said they don't do special order.

I'm using someone's Bostitch 28 degree wire weld nailer but need nails that are ring shank. Just about every store I've checked only has smooth shank nails. So I then checked Menards and they have Pneu-Fast nail clips but with paper tape. Can paper tape clips be used on a wire weld nailer?

As of now, we have a large propane tank with a copper line running underground to the house. The detached shop will be using propane as the fuel source for heating as well. I've already installed an 2" sch. 80 conduit sleeve inside the pole barn with a sweep elbow below it (concrete floor will...

When it come to selecting ceiling light fixtures for a shop, how high do the ceiling have to be to warrant a "high bay" fixture design? The shop has 14' ceiling, and we want to use fluorescent (T8) fixtures; however, during the search, I see that they are offered in regular and high bay types...

I recently dug through a black plastic water line that is buried about 6 to 8 inches underground. That line is used for watering the garden so it gets shut off in the winter. Anyway, it is 1" black plastic line, so I went to the local hardware store and got a splice coupling like this one...

Here in South Dakota, we use rural water system which runs directly through large farm fields. In our case, we have a line that goes through our backyard from a field and that is where the junction point, drop-off point, whatever you call it ... where the water meter is hooked up underground to...

We just made a phone call to Menard's to order over a hundred bags of blown-in cellulose. While talking to the guy in the building department, he asked if this is for a pole barn. Told him yep. He then strongly emphasized to NOT use blown-in cellulose above the metal ceiling because the flame...

My shop is going to have radiant floor heat installed but once it is in place, it will be used to maintain temperature at around 55-60F. I plan to add a propane heater unit mounted below the ceiling as an auxiliary heat to help bring the shop temperature up quicker as I would be using the shop...

Our 30' x 48' x 14' gambrel pole barn is being built in a couple weeks. There is one thing that still need to be worked out between us and the contractor. I wants a commercial girt (bookshelf) for increased capacity to hang heavy objects on T1-11 walls. There would be 2x6s laid horizontally...

I believe I read somewhere awhile ago that there is a decent toolbox liner selling on ebay that is in similar quality and material as Snap-on liners? If so, which item is it? Thanks in advance.

Looking for NOS (new old stock) Klein #661 (#1 square recess) and #663 (#3 square recess) screwdrivers, 4" round shank. Those NOS should have yellow prints on the handle instead of rubbery molded imprint that Klein currently is using in production today. I stupidly sold one of them several years...
