As stated before, the deal expired, so now it lists $65.95. Glad I got the $44 price with free 2day shipping. Had some extra points so got them for $20! Thanks!

Two rules about concrete. 1) It's very heavy. 2) It is going to crack. I can't imagine spending all the money on the mud and not laying down a little more for rebar. I've always done 3-4" of compacted rock that is wet down and packed multiple times, then put rebar on adobes. Don't ever...

I think bolting them down helps a bunch. I personally don't have any guns that can't be replaced by insurance, so I just have a 500lb costco version bolted to the floor. Could someone get in? Sure they could. For me it was more to keep them away from the kids. I think with portable angle...

Thanks for the info. I never thought about certain fields where there were a bunch of common sizes. I could see them being useful for electrical or hvac stuff.

Thanks. I know how to use the search feature. Sometimes it's great to get some new input on stuff. What is the point of a web forum if everyone just reads old posts?:dunno:

So with the new big shop I recently purchased with the new house, I have been on a bit of a tool buying spree lately. I've always just used Craftsman, but got a little @#$#$ when I got a USA tool swapped with chit. And that is how I ended up here. As I started sourcing a new brand of tools...

I have a 1/2" old SK breaker bar that works wonderful. I have used it to loosen a 2 1/4" Axle nut and jumped up and down on it. (I weigh 300lbs). No flex...

Put up some more insulation yesterday. Looking for good deals now on the 22" wide insulation. I have about 1/3 of the walls left to do. Finished insulating the inside heated bathroom / office area. Just need to drywall the rest of it. Then learn how to mud and tape. Got the hot water...

I have been really happy with my Puma 20 gallon compressor. Oil lube, nice and quiet. For the price I don't think you can beat it.

Well after starting to finally move in I figured I'd post some more pics. Its a little cold in there. Need to finish the insulation and close off the roof so I can put some heat in there! Here you can see it's starting to not look quite so empty... And since I had over 240 sq ft of...

Thanks! Picked up a nice set of Wiha Screw drivers for less than $16 shipped! Offer said it ended 11/18 but still took it for me. :)

Yeah my wife is a little concerned if I will ever be in the actual house. I want to put a shower in there too. I am hoping since the toilet is already plummed in it won't be too big of hassle to put a shower in too. Maybe an extra utility sink also. I've always wanted a nice fish cleaning...

Since everyone loves pictures.. Here ya go... These are just from the realtor site. Hoping it is clean in 6 days. Not that anyone is counting! :) Front of shop showing crazy tall door... Side of shop- Two doors... Inside of shop- Bathroom is hard to see. Drive through door in the back.

Finally get the keys to my new house next week. Well, new to me anyway. House has a standard two car garage, but also has a 32x60 stick built shop with bathroom and sink. I am pretty stoked to finally have a shop to park the boat, toys and truck in. The shop has 12 or 14' doors. It seems...

I just bought a 15 piece set of metric wrenches yesterday from the local dealer. I asked him about the warranty, and he said if he can read SK and the serial number, that I hand him the broken one, and he hands me a brand new one with no questions asked. Seems fair enough to me. I did spend a...
