I saw this being advertised by an online vendor, and thought it was a great idea. I have no idea if Graco is part of SB&D https://www.graco.com/us/en/contractor/product/25t804.html If Dewalt, Milwaukee, and Makita (other tool brands also welcome) would offer to power or make an alliance with...

I have been looking for about a year and a half; never found the right combination of decent price as well as a compressor that has at least 15CFM. Two days ago I saw an add for this, went to see it and bought, even though I do not know what the CFM on it is. I got it for $200, which I figure is...

I am looking for a used AC, 80 gallon with 15 CFM or better. I have often heard the latest Ingersoll Rand have cheap pumps made in India or other cheap parts to get them at entry level price points. Basically stay away from the entry level IR is the message I am getting. I have also heard that...

I don't know much about SO or BP carts. The pic I have, I am assuming it is a "Real McCoy", not something sold at Costco with the Snap-On name (especially because it is labeled Blue Point, must be made in USA)? Is this cart top quality, meaning much better than Sunnex, Harbor Freight and...

I know there are members here that are more in the know, go to tool shows (SEMA?), or know someone at the manufacturers. I was wondering how come there are not many choices when it comes to cordless BP blowers. Specifically, I am hoping for one of the main guys, Milwaukee, Dewalt, & Makita. I...

I really like this product and after having gone through many cans, just bought a 1 gallon pail which I should get mid next week. For large applications, I will probably use a paint brush or similar. My question is for anyone having purchased by the gallon, what system do you find is best for...

I have a large room where I need to install 2 heaters (I already have them), each is 240 volt, 8.3 amp, 2000 watt. Is it OK to wire both heaters onto one circuit (2 pole 20 amp breaker, 12 gauge wire)? Or is it better to wire each to its own circuit (each with their own 15 amp 2 pole breaker and...

I am looking to get a transfer pump for fuel, something like this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LXGMP92/?tag=atomicindus08-20 If it did gas also it would be good but more expensive; my main need is for diesel, so this is good. An AC version would be more practical for my need, but again...

Yup, another generator related question. (sorry!) My biggest concern is getting big enough Kw, but as small that will do the job for budget. There will be other small items I will add to the calculation later, but for now, my main concern is the continuous and startup amps or watts needed for...

Anyone know of or have experience with Ricardo diesels? In a simple hi-med-lo scenario, would you say they are in the upper/better engines, pretty average or on the cheap/**** side. If you have anything to add like..."they are very good but have problems starting", or "they are average but...

Most people that have had issues with standby generators or even portable that are at least 8000 watts or higher, what is more likely to fail? The engines being gasoline, LP/NG or diesel, or the generator electrics?

Sorry in advance - long Questions I currently have a 5.6Kw Wacker gen with a Honda engine but is too small for my needs at my new place I just moved to, and it is rural with more power outages & longer lasting than where I was previously. I would love to get bigger but right now my budget is...

I was looking at some used tools, in this case a Disston Saw came up. Not sure if Disston's are still produced, but this one seems of the recent variety. I looked on the http://www.disstonianinstitute.com/ and for D8's they list up to the mid 1950's, none of them have the big print Disston...

I am looking to get a Fein - https://www.qualitytoolsonline.ca/collections/mag-drills/products/1-3-8-mag-drill-with-variable-speed-and-reverse-jmu-137-qw it has the features I am looking for. If anyone has feedback on this model or Fein in general, please fell free to comment For tapping, most...

With a decent mag drill, you can make holes, but also tap and ream. But speaking strictly from core/drilling side to join metal beams or plates with appropriate size & strength bolts, or joining said beams or plates by welding (assuming your welder is powerful enough for the needed weld), is one...

I got a bag with 50 of each of these, 60 & 120 grit overlap discs. I have some Roloc holders but they have a quick turn female screw thread. Similar to what you see on this link https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MT3FYUV/?tag=atomicindus08-20 These need a male screw in the hold, the thread might be...

There was a video that was an ad on a YouTube video I was looking at, but can't find a link to just the video. On the video, like most videos, looks like it works quite well. But anyone own or tried these? Any good...

I bought a 12T benchtop press about 6 months ago, still in the box, unused. Too late to return but could sell it on CL or similar if necessary. I was offered a 30T full size floor model. What it would cost me for the 30, minus what I could get for my 12, I would be $75-$100 out of pocket. I am...

Looking at buying a piece of land, 2 acres, that has a 30 x 40 foot barn which needs some work....first and foremost, a concrete floor. Currently a mix of dirt and gravel, which hasn't been touched in years. Many questions for any concrete experts. 1 - Being undisturbed soil/ gravel, would 2...

At a garage sale I bought a box full of different pop rivets, which is what I was looking for. There were also 2 jars. One jar having these which might be aluminum or maybe some kind of steel. The inside has no treads for anything to grab onto. The second had these guys made of copper with...
