I'd keep them around for holding pipe, etc. up, as work stands, but not anything I'm going under.

With 4 kids, I don't "need" my testicles anymore, that doesn't mean I'm giving them away.

Windshield wiper, power window, power seat motors or actuators can come in handy.

The track for the lift is just a long flexible piece, they're only held with a clamp at the top which loosens and slides down letting the track sag. Pull the track back up where it's supposed to be and tack it in place and it'll work as well as is possible for a General International.

I'm liking the Troy-Bilt shovels.

Asked my son the other day to go get me some bolt holes. Took him a bit.

I just bought some used nut/bolt bins and hardware from a guy who was going out of business. Had a urinal mounted on the wall with a pipe dumping outside, hole big enough that you could see the end of the pipe outside. All his nuts and bolts mounted on the wall above the urinal. No running water...

Might just be cheaper to rent a "wife" for the night every now and then.

Depends what you're comfortable with. I'd go up on the roof to the left and start carefully cutting part way through every foot so the tops droop down to the ground, then when you can reach from the ground start cutting your way back from the top of each tree to the peak of the roof. Talk to the...

Didn't read through to see if anyone mentioned this but these guys http://www.homehardware.ca/en/rec/index.htm/Plumbing-Electrical/Electrical/Extension-Cords/Lamps-Reels/Cord-Reels/Orange-Extension-Cord-Holder/_/N-ntjxf/No-96/R-I3628970?Num=0 are just the right size to wrap 2" straps around.

I'd look at putting some wiring or maybe fuel line reels in there and feed them out but not at that price.

Slide a chunk of bicycle inner tube over the connectors, fold the ends around the wire and heat shrink the ends. Or just tape them

Was that including a heat source? If not, it's robbery. I did my basement with 2" exterior door cutouts for insulation, cost me $1900 for 2200 sf for everything except the outdoor wood furnace that feeds it.

There isn't much chance that was done with a building permit. If he contacts the city I would say there's a very good chance in Ontario that he'd have to tear it down and not be able to rebuild. The way insurance companies are stepping up their inspections here I'd be surprised if anybody would...

I'd just buy him the wood. Let him figure out what he wants to make with it.

Had a handy little air pig that a neighbour borrowed, kinda remembered it in the back of my mind but I wasn't looking for it.... about 6 months later I watched it sell for $20 at his auction.

Find some used jackall jacks and make some sturdy platforms/stands to put underneath them. If the ceilings are low you could put an upright of some kind on either side of the jackall running from floor to ceiling and then adjust the height of the jack within the uprights for different height...

Go with the blue one. It brings out the blue in your eyes and matches your outfit MUCH better.

Been cutting for a living (in the winter anyway) for 25 years now, about 3 years ago I saw one of these http://www.husqvarna.com/us/accessories/product-accessories/filing-equipment/sharp-force-file-guide/ for the first time and tried one. Made by Pferd, they also sell it under their own name but...

I would suggest two tarps hanging from the ceiling, overlapping slightly, with some light tubing fixed across the bottom of each tarp so you can roll each one up to the ceiling with a handle like truck tarps. Hooks at each end of each tarp to hold them to the ceiling.
