    2026 Garage Sale Thread (15th Annual)

    Bought this women’s Yamaha snowmobile coat off marketplace today. I had messaged about it roughly a week ago, it was listed as brand new for 75.00, I had offered 50.00 when I messaged a week ago, I got no reply. I was going through my saved items in Marketplace last night, came across it and...

    2026 Garage Sale Thread (15th Annual)

    Went to our local flea market today, got there around 11:30, seen this hand painted sign. Asked the vendor how much, he says 100.00. I offer him 80.00, he says he can’t take 80.00, that a fellow he knows hand paints them. We chit chat a bit and then I go on my way looking through the rest of the...

    Epoxy did not lay down so great

    It’s been awhile but I used to work in my twenties laying epoxy floors. Is this just rolled on? You didn’t trowel a base first or anything? The pinholes are most likely die to improper cleaning prep, did you clean the concrete first? We used to have the concrete blasted with steel shot first but...

    What makes a toolbox expensive/better?

    I’ve never had to ***** foot around with the tool box, I’ve always put whatever tools I’ve wanted to in the tool chest but I get it now, the more expensive ones are thicker metal and better hardware which is perfect for the guy that wants to put 200 pounds in a drawer. Could also be, that...

    I may have to live in a cardboard house!

    Putting Christmas lights up this year I used electric fence wire to string the lights on. Using your words, it was airline tight, much tighter and more taunt than the baker twin I had used the years earlier. I would make a loop at the end of the wire, put the screw through the loop, then when I...

    What makes a toolbox expensive/better?

    It had never crossed my mind that tool boxes were made to use as steps, I definitely would not try it with my 30 year old Canadian Tire special box, I’m sure it wouldn’t hold up

    What makes a toolbox expensive/better?

    After reading the responses in this thread, I understand where the benefits to the 3000.00 and up boxes is. I have only ever used my boxes for tools, maybe 100 pounds at most per drawer, probably more like 20 to 40 pounds per drawer usually. I’ve never really payed attention to how many fingers...

    What makes a toolbox expensive/better?

    I have been following another thread on here “ how much is this toolbox worth” and it got me to wondering what I was missing out on with the expensive toolboxes? You don’t know what you’re missing if you’ve never had it. I’ve had the same cheap toolboxes from Canadian tire for about 30 years...

    What would you pay for this Mac toolbox?

    250.00 for me, but to me it’s just a tool box. I know it’s probably worth much more

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Thanks for the help @rd65 . I was able to get the pins out today with 30 or 40 small taps, no way I was going to break that carb. Got everything apart, cleaned everything, pilot and circuit, main, seat. Got it put back together and she’s starting first pull again. I’m going to have to make sure...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I would really like to disassemble it further to clean the seat, it’s actually sticking closed and sometimes takes a little tap for it to open but my cousin warned me to be careful getting that pin out, that the pin hole tower can break same as you warned me, thank you. I tried gently tapping on...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    My daughters 2002 MXZ 500F with 4000km was getting extremely hard to start last year, had to take the plugs out 6 or 7 times and out mixed fuel in. So today I got it in the shop, got the carbs off, pilot jets out and soaking. First time cleaning this type of carb so if any of you have any tips...

    What type of heater for uninsulated shop?

    No, there’s absolutely no way you’re going to be heating this all the time unless you have 1000.00 to 2000.00 a month for fuel. Sounds like you need to come to terms that basically your working outside. I would forget about any thoughts of heating it full time until you can save 1500.00 for...
