    Mounting air compressor pump/motor to new tank

    Paid $100 for a Sears 4hp 20 gallon air compressor a few months back. Made by Devilbiss in 1984. Appears to be all original. Got it home, cleaned it all up, changed the oil and tightened some fittings. Worked great, no leaks and was super happy with its output and noise coming from a 6 gallon...

    AirCat 1055-TH Not Working - Just Exhausting Air

    22mm or 7/8" for Lug Nuts

    Is it safe to continuously use a 7/8" impact socket on a 22mm lug nut? My gut says in a pinch, no problem. But don't do it on the regular. I'm asking because I haven't been able to find a Cro-Moly 22mm non-marring impact socket but I do have a 7/8".

    Looking for some feedback on an air compressor that I found for sale. Seller is willing to sell it for $150. Haven't been able to find any info about it other than the fact that most parts are obsolete, which is concerning. I plan to go see it, listen to it run, check for leaks and then drain...

    CAT 15020C Air Compressor

    For less than $400, I've been looking at the California Air Tools 15020C air compressor to replace a 6 gallon pancake for two reasons - reduced noise and increased air capacity/volume. No doubt it will be quieter. Capacity is over double (6 to 15 gal) and delivery is double (2.6 to 5.3 cfm @...

    Garage Entry/Night Lighting

    Since I turned on the heater in the garage, we have been using the man door to get in/out of the garage/house instead of opening the large garage doors. Electric heat is not cheap!
