Every Roto-Ratchet I could find

I've seen mounds here in WI with straw on them for the winter. Covering the straw with plastic to keep it dry would really help.

I have used spray silicone with good results

A while ago at a garage sale, there was a Dremel drill press for $3.00, and seperately there was a Dremel for $5.00. I debated spending $8.00 for the pair, but decided to pass.

I have a fully insulated, unheated, attached garage in WI., it is usually 20 degrees warmer inside the garage than outside during the winter.

I would put a layer of block down, it will keep the bottom plate dry, as well as keep the siding out of the grass. Every few feet, you can fill a core with cement and put in an anchor bolt, to bolt down the bottom plate.

Many mowers have a fine screen in the gas tank where the fuel outlet is. Maybe the screen is partially plugged, causing a lean condition under load. Empty the tank, and sometimes you can see the screen, blow backwards through it to clear.

A blown head gasket could have symptoms like you describe. Run and run and hardly build pressure.

The shop where I used to work had an oil filter crusher. It was like a heavy duty can crusher. It would crush a filter down to about 1" tall, and most of the oil would squeeze out. Afterwards they would be tossed into the scrap steel pile.

Years ago I used to refill a hand grease gun using a paint stir stick. Scoop it out of the pail and get it into the empty cartridge.

I think those loops in the rubber line may cause some problems. Water could collect in them, and when the water builds up enough to block the air, it could all blow through in a big blast of water.

Drill a hole up into the stud right where it's needed

Look at every solder joint with a magnifying glass

I thought maybe for riveting linings onto brake shoes

Pop the cap off your original breather, there may be enough of a stub to put the breather hose on with a clamp.

I have had 2 roofs replaced due to hail damage in the last 25 years. In each case I called the ins co the following day. They sent an adjuster but he hardly looked at it, said the roof needed replacing due to the large hail. I had a lot of out of town, and even out of state salemen door knocking...

Unused 6BN Vise Grips, $50 shipped.

There should be some sort of flashing like this, no light should be coming through.

You should post a pic from the roof side so we can see what the flashing looks like. Doesn't seem right that light is coming through.
