That yard is steep to push. For a slope like that I would try to cut across if possible so that the mower falls away from you if you slip. Merrells are pretty good. I prefer a boot with a high heel to dig in.

Thank you. I really thought I was the only one. I'd like to get a HF box for work but I'm waiting on white.

Fill the ruts and holes in shallow lifts, tamping between each lift of dirt. You can use a tire to tamp if the ruts are too long to tamp by hand. This should minimize settling over time and you can seed. Run your roller over the seed to maximize ground contact and speed germination. If birds...

My first flex head was the long handled Pittsburgh Pro in 3/8 drive. That ratchet is far better than it has any right to be. At the price point, get one of each in 3/8 and 1/4 and see what you use. My main ratchet now is a Carlyle locking 1/4, but the long 3/8 can do a lot of work. Bit unwieldy...

I was taught to hold the can of primer under the pipe so whatever drips off the dauber can be reused. They'd probably kill me at work if I threw a can of glue away because the lid was stuck...

I did not know that. Thank you.

I've seen 18mm fittings on GM power steering lines and John Deere seems to freaking love an 18mm head on their gators.

When I need a T27 I grab one of the hundreds of weed eater tools we have at work. You could never lose all the ones we have. Chainsaw tools, though, are a rare thing indeed. I think we're down to two at the moment. Hollow ground flat tips are hard to find in anything that isn't an X-in-1 style...

How long is the cord? Cord length is what gets me but I've been playing with a vise grip clamp on one of my lights.

Some mowers are better than others. We have a Scag at work that has had seventeen hard commercial seasons and is still in very serviceable condition. You can still get just about any part you need. That one is finally due for a new deck and, possibly, a new powerplant. We also have a...

I want the six drawer cart in white.

I technically have three. My standard cordless tools are M12 and M18 Milwaukee. I also have an Alemite 18V lithium grease gun that I either need a new battery for or need to work out someone to make an adapter. Cordless and pneumatic grease guns at work have spoiled me. I hate pumping grease by...

I recently bought an echo 3510 that I really like. Lots of power for it's weight.

The echo speed feed heads are good. Very reliable and fairly simple to load. At work I do a lot of weedeating and a fixed string head just wouldn't work. Yes, you occasionally have to adjust the string in a bump head, but that has more to do with the string welding to itself inside the head than...

I'm not a fan of handlebar trimmers. For a big brush cutter - I'm looking at you FS 560 C - yes, you need the handlebars and the harness. For trimming and lighter brush though, use a D handle. You can maneuver the head much better and do a better job. This is especially true if you're trimming...

For heat shrink I like to use the exhaust from my power probe butane soldering iron. It's fairly precise and fits into cramped spaces easily.

It's clearly the greatest of all time.

Indeed. Onnit markets lots of weights. A parts manager friend once received two 25 pound dumbbells in a shipment. Nobody could figure out why a headlight was so heavy.

If it's an Irega that's a good adjustable wrench. If you're willing to pay for quality you might consider keeping it.

You could always go with Surefire if you want USA. I haven't made that leap yet...
