Not all black clips which fit over rails are the same. The governing factor is whether the rail in question has a ridge/shoulder around the outside. If it does the Performance Tool clips are correct (they have the inner shoulder which rides on the shoulder of the rail). If not, the Wrights...

I have no experience with the Top Off, but what about getting them the M18 portable fan? The size makes it pretty handy for a variety of uses - drying things, clearing fumes, and yes, for when the power goes out.

The real indicator - Have you gotten back to looking at Marketplace? :devilish:;)

Bad marketing or is the stuff really not that desirable?

I'm sure Strouty is happy to know everyone has his back.

The load calculations are easy enough to do yourself. It simply is a matter of measuring the envelope of your structure and determining the makeup of those surfaces (area of walls, windows, ceiling, thickness, insulation). It can be done either through the official Manual J manual, or through...

However accurately you can mark your target and position the track relative to the mark is exactly what you will get.

The implicit problem with doing "perfect life" planning is that it is built on assumptions you may not even yourself be aware of, not to mention that the actuality of life is changing even while your are planning. Then once you are finished doing your perfect design, life just laughs at you -...

What are your plans for the barber chair?

How about instead of filling and redrilling, you cut out the existing piece off-center, rotate 180 and reinstall?

You seem to have an addiction to "possibility" (dreaming) and a job that requires attention to "probability" (reality). Each interferes with the other.....

Look - A chicken!!!

If you are still nervous, perhaps you could alleviate your anxiety by doing a dry run. Find a video with lighting instructions and follow along with the bottles turned off. Much of lighting a torch is muscle memory, so maybe develop that in advance. When you get comfortable with it in your...

My wife will close all the shades in the living room until it's like a cave "to save energy". And then leave the front door open in the middle of the Texas summer while she strolls out to the car.....

Or people in the Costco gas line who don't understand that the deliberately designed lane between the pumps is to allow customers to leapfrog, thereby speeding the line. They sit, thumb up ****, while a pump sits empty. On the other hand, I also fault Costco for not encouraging moving forward...

Software prompts, instructions and error messages that are so cryptic they can either be interpreted multiple ways, or can't be interpreted at all. I assume this duty is given to the youngest, most non-native speakers in the department. Why don't companies understand the competency of the user...

Probably non-matching pieces of five different ones....:giggle:

This perfectly describes my experience. I don't have strong brand preferences, I expect most tools from the big makers to be pretty usable these days, especially since I'm only a hobbyist. That said, for some reason I've never gotten into DeWalt. I bought the Makita tracksaw, new, mainly...

Interesting that you mention the trigger. The one I bought would work for a few seconds and then stop. Same pattern over and over. After reading a review or two that mentioned the entire saw going bad I decided to return it.

Clearly he knew not to stop on the expressway.
