    Tool Review: Performance Tools Coil Spring Oil Filter Wrench

    I purchased one of these about a month and a half ago for changing the oil filter on my '03 SportTrac. It mounts straight up & down like a SBC but it's a ways up past the frame and I couldn't use a conventional clamping oil filter wrench and I've never had much luck with the cup style ones. I...

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ Someone was wanting one of these for a press. It's a Central Hydraulics piece, Lot No. 41487. Don't know if it'll work or not.

    What about used cinderblock to build a shop out of?

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ We got our second WalMart Supercenter recently and the old normal Walmart is going to be torn down to put an upscale shopping center in. It's made out of cinderblock and I think there is even some split faced block. It's pretty easy to tell a good block from a bad block...

    For the life of me, I can't get my avatar to work....

    I've tried attaching a JPG and a BMP from my computer and a JPG from a photohosting site I use and nothing works. I get invalid file types, etc. Can I send anyone my pic to attach it for me? I had no problem on the HAMB site. Larry

    Do these jack reviews from Sears website sound canned?

    The lift handle has the "rotate to drop" which is very convenient. "...The best feature that I like personally is that you can lower the jack by rotating the handle and also use it to pull it from under the vehicle. What a time savor, and easy on the knees and back!" Have Scooter and JDR1234...

    Am I putting too much oil in my compressor?

    It's a 2 stage Delta I picked up at Sam's Club and it says it uses 60 oz. of 30 weight oil. https://goo.io/nJwYmJ So I drained the compressor of the remainder of the factory test oil, or so I thought, and I'm adding the 60 oz. of 30 weight I bought and I am 6 oz. short of the 60oz. and the oil...

    Copper or steel on compressor before isolation hose?

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ The relationship of my Delta 80 gal., upright compressor to where the riser to the ceiling is would mean that if I put the drain leg on the end, it'll dump down onto the compressor, pretty close to the pump. The output on the compressor is from an aluminum 'head' that the...

    Tech Tip: DIY drywall tape and bed

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ I just saw an older post where a guy was building a 34x50 shop (I think) and he was talking about how sanding the drywall sucked. I learned a technique a while back about using a damp sponge instead of sanding. You have to have a pretty good surface to begin with, but it...

    Anyone ever been to a Cummins Industrial Tools Truck Sale?

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ There's one near me this weekend. Looks sorta like the Homier Tools Sale that used to come around here. Factory closeouts of some name brands (actually I think just factory reconditioned) and some cheap tools. If any of you go to these things, what type stuff do you get...

    I was told by a friend not to use HF or any other cheap tool store MIG wire....

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ as it has a lot of impurities on the outside of the wire that contaminates the liner and causes the wire to 'bind' or slip, well, guess what is wrong with my Miller 130.... I know you're not suppposed to step on the lead, or bend it too much, but I'm at the point I have...

    Compressor air line, regulator & filter questions....

    I had posted most of this below in a question about regulator brands and only Charles answered, but only about the brands, so I striped that out and reposted the rest of it. https://goo.io/nJwYmJ Is it better to have regulators and dryers at the drops or to have them close to the compressor...

    I assume Speedaire, Norgren and Wilkerson are the good regulators/dryers, any others?

    Lowe's, Home Depot and the cheap tool stores carry Campbell Hausefeld at best and Chinese at the worst. Grainger carries Speedaire that I know of, but looking at Ebay it appears that Speedaire, Norgren and Wilkerson are all USA made and well built. I know that I want a dryer with a metal...

    Another Edmondite in Oklahoma....

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ Didn't see this before, but it's just like the HAMB site so I shoulda known. Right now I'm working on a garage makeover for my half of a two car garage. A seperate shop is hopefully in the future, but right now I'm making due with what I have. I'm lucky enough to have a...
