    looking to start tool selling business

    I’m a salesman in the industrial and construction supply industry. Milwaukee, DeWalt, Proto, Wright, etc. You’re going to have to do some serious research on this. Everyone wants it free and now. Including warranty replacements... my business is built on relationships. I’ve been doing it...

    REplacement Part Obsolete

    Call the DeWalt factory service center. They can search all of the centers in the US and one of them may have one sitting around. I’ve had excellent luck with this in the past.

    SDS Drill for 5/32 holes?

    Point blank, this is exactly what the smaller sds hammers are designed for. Once you use a rotary hammer, you’ll never use a hammer drill again.

    Not to code...danger level?

    For crying out loud. Watch where you walk. That’s basically rule #1 from the time you wake up until you lay down for bed. Skip the step. Walk around it. Knock on the door? Ask the property resident for the landlords contact info? Our mail carrier is the same way. Painted our railing one...

    Concrete wall sawing

    My company rents and sells the cut n breaks. Awesome saws. Personally, I’ve cut in 8 egress windows on the side. That being said, it is not the right saw for the job at all. Good idea to sub it out!

    '78 F350 Dually Project

    I had one on my 76 f250. Hated it. Seems weird, but it blocked my view. Plus, I never liked how they look on any vehicle. CL and get your money back.

    1966 F100 EcoBoost Engine Swap (EcoBoosted)

    I just finished all 206 pages over the last couple days! Whoa! What an emotional roller coaster. I could help but think about the book “If you give a mouse a cookie”. It’s all piles up and leads to more and more and more! If you strip the paint off another vehicle you are not ready to work...

    “Tap” for sheet metal screws?

    I’ve got a Customer that installs commercial glass. They were recently using stainless steel #10 x 3/4” pan head torx self drilling screws. These were 18-8 stainless. They called me about broken heads. I looked at the application, made a couple calls and we tried some 410 stainless screws...

    Garage Doors - 2x10 or 1x18?

    I have no idea how two doors gives you more options. At my old house I had one big door and now I have 3 small doors. I’m currently exploring changing 2 of the small doors into one big one. More doors means more tracks, more openers. In my opinion and in my current space, one of those items...

    I started this last night and just finished all 38 pages. I have to admit that I don’t like cars . I love trucks and anything 4x4. Big ones, little ones, all of them. Your attention to detail, witty writing, OCD and obvious ability are awesome and respected! Great build and I can’t believe...

    Techniques for getting best finish from flap discs?

    You need to get a unitized wheel. Google it. Clean it up with a flap disc, use the unitized wheel and you’ll be good to go. They are gray and have the same look as a pumice stone.

    Above 1200 Sq/FT Eastern Washington Workshop

    No, thank you for sharing your talents. BTW, if I moved to your town, do you think we could grow to love each other and share this wonderful shop? My wife and 4 kids would totally understand. Obviously, just kidding. Unless you think it could work... Hope you see the humor there! Great...

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    I work for one of the largest Milwaukee distributors in the nation. I’m not here to sell, but I can shed some light to their direction. They are trying to get back to their roots. Electrical/mechanical contractors. What you aren’t seeing at HD or CPO are all of the amazing tools they have...

    Wow! Just WOW! I spent most of the last few days reading from page 1! Excellent work on all fronts! FWIW, I’m salesman for an industrial/construction supply company and I see lots of people who are magicians with steel or cars or wood, you are one of very few that can do it all...
