I want to install a surge protector at the well head for my 240 volt, 3 wire submersible pump. Is there such a thing and if so, what is the name and model number? By three wire I mean, a wire for the red, black, yellow leads plus a ground.

I need two of these. They go in an Ambass A Dor garage door opener.

I have a metal building with wood framing. This building is 36’x84’x11’ high. Right now I have no ceiling and the only insulation below the metal roof is 1/4” of bubble insulation with a metallic radiant side. This was installed mainly to keep the metal from developing condensation. What’s the...

I had to spray my gunstock a little bit thicker than I usualy spray. Once it went off I noticed that the clear coat has a haze. Where about is the paint blushed, top layer, middle, or a the base? I used Acme Finish1, FC720 with FH612 hardener.

Every time I turn around, I end up attending an auction. This leads to finding something I have lived without all these years, but can't live without it now. I just purchased this Grizzly lathe with some tooling, of course, I now need to figure out where to put it and install a 20 Amp, 220...

I just assembled this gearbox. How long do I need to wait before i can put it to use? TIA,

Anyone here own, or have used one to locate burried cables, or ground faults?

We had a lightning strike hit a tree, 40' from the house and about 20' from our well. My wife actually saw sparks come out of a CGFI outlet right in front of her. The well pump's control box was blown open. I replaced the control box later that afternoon and was lucky enough to have the pump...

I've used a boxcutter in the past, however, I will be installing a lot of tiles in some of my office ceilings. What cutting tool do the proffessional drop ceiling installes use to cut accoustic ceiling tiles? TIA,

This boiler is about 25 years old. I need a few parts for it, but cannot find the manufacturer. I need a part that goes in the firebox.

Has anyone here fabricated a Caja China from scratch? If so, would you change or add to anything you originally did?

I purchased a 1hp Baldor Grinder, along with a Model 500 Tool Grinder at auction a while back. After setting them up (they came installed on a back to back heavy duty base), I tried them out. It turns out that the tool grinder's field is fried, I don't know if the armature is also. Is there a...

As the title states, I'm looking to retrofit about 200, 2'x4' T12 Fixtures, to the more modern Reduced Wattage T8 ballasts and bulbs. Duke Energy is the electric company that we use and this is the system that qualifies for their rebate program. Does anyone here know which lamps and ballasts...

I would like to get rid of over 100, T12 4-4'lamps and retrofit them to T5 2-4' lamps. These lamps are currently used in an office building I just purchased. The ceilings are about 8' in height. Some of these lights are on 24/7, thus my electric bill is over $40,000.00 a year. I'm looking for...

I have a separate tread regarding outgrowing my 36'x64' shop. These are pictures of how I'm beginning to set it up. I have not finished the restroom, or installed the double compartment wash tub.

I outgrew my 65'x36' shop and 50'x48' pole barn I built a hobby shop and open pole barn 9 moths ago. I wanted more space but thought that with today's economy, anything you build probably is worth less than you invested once you are finished. Well, I have moved most of my stuff in the shop and...

I just picked this parts cleaner, I found it on CL. It needs to have the lid refinished, there's surface rust on the untainted metal surfaces, however it has never been used, it is the 35 gallon model. I will be using it in my newly built hobby shop (36'x85'x12'). The cleaner ZEP recommends is...
