Hi all. MagicMarker's recent thread dealing with a loose neutral got me thinking about my brother's backup generator installation. He's installing a transfer switch that disconnects the mains input from the meter and then connects the generator output to the service (breaker panel) when...

Hi everyone. I started a thread a while ago about looking for a new air compressor. Well I found a used Qunicy with the pressure lube pump and a new 6hp Marathon motor. I don't think the tank is original. It's dated 1971. It's made by Wood Ind. Prod. Co. I'm going to remove one of the...

Well, I'm in the market for a new air compressor. My 10 year old Ingersol rand motor died for the second time. The first motor went just a little after two years. That's because it didn't have a mag starter and all of the current went thru the the small contacts in the pressure switch. When...

As the title says, I'm looking for a Blackhawk Sj-23 floorjack. I'm in Ohio but willing to travel or have shipped. Let me know if you have one.

I have a Wyco brand flexible shaft tool with removable heads that can have different types of wheels put on them. the wheels/casters are froze but the motor runs fine with a new cord and plug. I've had this for some time now and just don't use it.

Hey Y'all. I just picked up this Hein Werner 2 Ton off of craigslist for 75.00! The guy had it listed for a while, but he listed it under Autoparts and accessories instead of tools. That's possibly why it didn't sell fast. Anyway, it's a great addition the shop and looks good next to my...

Hi Y'all. I have a chance to purchase this lift from my grandfather for around 200.00. I've checked with the manufacturer and they said it's built a little heavier duty than the mid rise they make today. I just wanted to get a couple of opinions to see what everyone thinks.

I'm using an older Square D magnetic starter on my 5 hp IR compressor. Originally the compressor didn't have a mag starter, but after burning out the start up windings on the original motor and replacing the motor with one from Grainger, someone recomended a mag starter. The one I'm using is a...

Hi Y'all. I just picked this up at a second hand store for $8.00. I Know it's an air pressure regulator. Is Wilkerson a good brand? This one is made in Japan. :dunno:

Well, as the title reads, has anyone out there in Garage Journal Land ever purchase a new Milwaukee model 20 or 40 floor jack? If so, how has it performed? And do you think it was worth the cost?

I was hoping someone out there can help me identify this old Hein Werner. I recently got this from my grandfather. I remember using this jack when I was about 12-14 years old (I'm 43 now) in his tire shop. There's no ID tag on it just "2 TON". I need to find a rebuild kit for it or have it...
