    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Re: What did you do "IN" your garage today? Yep. Every part of a Volvo hood is replaceable and is glued in. It is the part that the hood hinges and spring bolts to. Before the glue up: Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

    Need dust collector advice

    I only have a 20 amp circuit in that building. I also don't want to waste space in there for another dust collector. I have lathes in the building. The mini is not too bad but the shopsmith pops the breaker if I try to turn on my dust collector. I guess I may have to rethink this project. I...

    Need dust collector advice

    I don't have enough amperage in there to run another dust collector. I want to keep the draw to a minimum. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

    Need dust collector advice

    I need to get a dust collector pipe from the red building to the wood building. I have a dust collector in the red building already and want to extend to the other building. What are your recommendations? I thought about running it under the steps and covering the exposed part between the...

    Air Compressor--max pressure question

    It all depends to on the duty cycle of your compressor. I had a craftsman compressor when I started my home body shop. Scattered that compressor in a few weeks. Duty cycle was about 20%. The replacement has a 100% duty cycle. Been using that one for 10+ years with no issue. Sent from my...

    Mine runs about 110 before shutoff. Most tools are rated at a max of 90 psi anyways. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

    Compressor problem

    Mine had the same issue. Had to change the compressor pump oil to something more suited to my cold temperature. My compressor is in an unheated garage, and would trip the motor overload breaker when it was as cold as it has been. I don't remember the weight of oil. Call your compressor support...

    Hanging a Chain Hoist from Truss? Thoughts?

    I've done it spread across many trusses. But it was also 16 in Center, so I was across probably 5 or so. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

    Water meter socket

    The leak is between the well house and the house. Of course it go's under my driveway for part of it. Below is the pipe I burried it's only about 5 years old. There is only one connection on the entire run. It is a yard hydrant. Can it leak through the shutoff and into the ground? It empties the...

    Water meter socket

    I literally can't turn it with channel locks! It is TIGHT! This hasn't been open in about 15 years. My meter is wireless and they just get the reading from the truck when he pulls up. Actually it had about 2 inches of sod on top of it. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

    Water meter socket

    That's my plan except I can't get to see the meter gauge to see if it's leaking. I have about 500 feet of under ground pipe to worry about and 30 feet of that goes under my blacktop driveway. My service goes from my meter to the old well house with a shutoff. Then to the house with another...

    Water meter socket

    No one here cares if your in the meter house. Except maybe if you don't pay tour bill, they shut it off and you turn it back on. I don't want to have another week of a water leak of 55 gallons a day. I can look quickly and see a few things. One the meter leak indicator should not be turning and...

    Water meter socket

    There is no toilet running through and I can't remember using extra water. But it comes out to be an extra 55 gallons a day for the last 60 days. They had an emergency number but it's not really that. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk
