I run mine at home. They use the old style 3 prong 240 outlet.

Until a few months ago, we were still exclusively pedaling our 1985 Schwinn mountain bikes. My wife had grown to hate hers so when we stumbled across 2 Schwinn cruisers at a yard sale back in September, she immediately claimed the women's model (since dubbed "Pinky Herman") and then convinced me...

If you fellows aren't using those timer switches on all of your bathroom exhaust fans, you're missing out on a perfect application for them. I just wish I could relabel the times next to each button with fun stuff like "Muesli" "Taco Tuesday" Deviled Eggs & Beer" and "Colonoscopy Prep" next to...

I'm not sure why HF swapped the deep drawer from the bottom left on the series 2 to the bottom right on the series 3. I'm just really glad I got mine back when I did, back before all of the BS trade war tariffs, covid and supply shortage madness.

I'd recommend a good handcart. To haul that pain in the *** front load machine to the curb for the recyclers. Then go buy an old-fashioned Speed Queen top load washer.

I'm not familiar with your particular lift but on most lifts I am familiar with, the secondary locks only engage when cable tension is lost; i.e. a cable breaks.

I bought these. The flare is better for me and I love the built in universal joint.

Mine are hanging high up on a wall. I've only gotten them down once since I got the lift 4 years ago.

We have the original SimpliSafe system. The shop is about 6 feet from the house. In addition to something like door/window sensors that will always trip an alarm, you can also set up some things like motion sensors to be armed even when the system is in "Home" mode vs. "Away" mode so it is...

I have this set on my Advantage lift. They sit in the channel and the rolling jack doesn't bother them at all. https://www.ebay.com/itm/173236688957?hash=item2855b6183d:g:igIAAOSwcSFbOkFT

My organizational skills are still top notch. My job planning is worthy of military envy. My knowledge continues to grow. My old tools are still as quick as ever and my newer tools are state of the art, breathtakingly fast. But I sure ain't. A time factor of four times as long sounds about...

First, I like the cheaper price. Second, the manual pump offers more "feel" and control when using it. By control, I mean you can pump it very slowly and even stop mid-stroke while getting the pucks/jack in to position. By feel, I mean you can easily tell from the feedback of the handle when...

Six feet. It's a very short commute.

Congrats on your new lift! I have the slightly older version of the same lift, the SS-1000XLT. I used these LED's, they are magnetic and fit in the trough next to the lip that the rolling jack/jack tray/drip trays ride on. Life everything, they were much cheaper then. (if the link gets old and...

You don't want a regular broom, you need a Bruske. Seriously good brooms. All aluminum construction. I've got one in the black bristles that was used in a machine shop, is almost 40 years old and is still going. I got a new one a few years ago with the yellow bristles for my epoxy floors and it...

Very true. But what you (and most whippersnappers) never realize is, you're gonna get old A LOT faster than you think. Then you'll just start using words like whippersnapper like its the most natural thing in the world...:giggle:

Yes, get the lift. It IS life changing. (for the better) Whether 2 or 4 post is a personal decision and up to no one but you. I went with a 4 post because A.) I'm already old. B.) My knees were already shot and C.) Arthritis makes all of my other joints hurt too so I hate to come in to contact...

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000X4PUCQ/?tag=atomicindus08-20 For anyone that cares, the jennuwine article raptors are on sale for 25% off ($39.99) right now. But then you'll be putting rocket fuel in a kajillionaires pocket by NOT buying them from from your local mom & pop tool store. Buy a pair...

I spent 40 years in machine shops. The first 10 as a machinist and the last 30 in machine tool service, applications & sales. Life is way too short to deal with ****** carbon steel taps. Since retirement, I've found good deals can be had on name brand taps on eBay. And a word to the wise: Always...

I've had a pair of Alligators for over 20 years. So long ago that I can't remember exactly where I bought them but do recall that the place had a little display demo set up. Being curious, I gave them a try and discovered that they had incredible grip with far less hand pressure than Channel...
