So, for those of you that have installed these types of heaters, how long does it take before the "new heater" smell goes away? I have run it about an hour now and it works great, but there is a fairly strong smell. I have sealed up the exhaust very well, so I don't think it is that. Did your...

Hey guys, I just finished up placing my new Mr. Heater 45k and I need to place the thermostat. Where did you guys place yours? The heater is in the back of the shop, placed diagonally facing the other corner. Positon 1, 2 or 3? I am leaning towards position 2. Easy to route, next to a light...

So I had planned to run copper for my airlines. But now that I have that air cooler unit that was on closeout from Grainger I have been looking at the Rapid Air stuff. The whole point for using copper was to allow the cooling of the air and remove the condensate from the lines. The question...

Ok, came across this on Ebay. Says it is made in America. Maybe South America? :) Anyone use one? http://cgi.ebay.com/Levelwind-Retractable-Hose-Reel-Air-3-8-IDx-50ft-Hose_W0QQitemZ350296957283QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item518f536163

Ok, I have been saving up for a new compressor for the shop. I currently have a CH 26 gallon oil-free compressor and it has been great, but with the new shop, I wanted to get the compressor now instead of later. I have a small pile of Lowe's gift cards saved up along with a Visa and AMEX gift...

Oh yes. Yet another FANTASTIC deal on tools. The toolbox is cool looking.... http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/tls/1426814074.html

So, do you guys think that my Garagedeck floor (Racedeck material, slightly different design) would hold up under this lift? http://www.americanautomotiveequipment.com/Motorcycle-ATV-Lifts-p/pmr6xt-d.htmit It has some small wheels on one side and I am worried they might puncture the tile.

Hey all, I decided to take advantage of the weather and build a carport on the side of the shop. I picked up some incorrectly ordered mono trusses for $120 and got to work! THE STARTING POINT! 9ft wide and about 20ft long (retaining wall kept me from going the full 24ft. TRUSSES - They are...

Ok, so I am getting ready to insulate the ceiling of the shop. I would like to keep the beams of the trusses exposed. I also have a large amount of Tyvek left over from the build. So, my idea was to lay the Tyvek out over the base of the trusses and lay non-kraft faced R30 over the top of that...

Why does the Harbor Freight Hansen look-a-likes not have a post for a 12mm socket?? I don't get that. Is it just me or is just about every Japanese car screwed together with 12mm nuts/bolts? I went to get a SAE and Metric set with that $5 coupon, but said WTF when I saw there was no post for a...

Found this box on my local CL. Vidmar. Looks nice. $950

I spend a lot of time here and never thought of selling any PC's or computer parts. Seeing as this is an ONLINE forum, you guys must be using PC's! Anyone need a new machine? Maybe some upgrades? I would love to trade for some tools as well! Let me know! Mike

Hi all. I have been considering making a career change and taking up a MAC tool truck route as one has become available. What do you guys think? Bad idea? I spoke with another MAC tool truck distributor that works the area adjacent and he is doing well. Been in the business for 12 years in our...

So, I take advantage of the Craftsman Club savings and the extra 10% for the Midnight Madness sale. The Sears website leaves something to be desired as far as correct info. I really was only interested in the long shank wrenches, but the 13 piece didn't say they were longs. Only the 9 piece was...

Hey guys, here is a set of wrenches that I found locally. They are asking $150 for the pile. Are they worth what they are asking? I need a SAE set of open's to match the metric Snap On's I bought a few months ago. How old? I haven't looked at them yet. Sizes 5/8 to 1-1/2 Thanks all!
