    Amerex 240 (Stainless Steel/Water) Fire Extinguisher and water with Chloride

    Thanks for all the replies. I'll probably stick with Distilled for the ones that sit and use tap for the one that I normally go through. Distilled water here is somewhat pricey, I think the local market it's a little under $2/gallon. The extinguisher takes two and half so around $5 per refill...

    Cutting down tree that's going through utility lines

    I have a smaller tree (as in not wide but really tall) in the back of the garage. The tree goes through the utility lines. I mean they are touching them and weaved in between some of them. I can easily cut it down myself if it wasn't for the lines. I called the electric company and was told...

    Where to buy Justrite Safety Cabinet shelf clips

    I dropped by OSH on the way home from work and they had the bracket. It looks like they were pretty standard, they had them in a few different "grades" and colors. I think it was $4 for a pack of 12 so I picked up two bags. Thanks for all the help!

    Where to buy Justrite Safety Cabinet shelf clips

    I noticed online that all the new ones have them built in where the shelves just slips into the sides. I guess mines is older then. Mines has two "strips" on each side w/ holes in them...

    Where to buy Justrite Safety Cabinet shelf clips

    I picked up a used Justrite Safety/Fire/Chemical cabinet the other week and all the clips that hold up the shelves were missing. I did a google search for them and couldn't find them anywhere. Are these pretty standard where I can just find them at an ACE hardware or an OSH? Or does anyone know...

    Cutting wood with a metal band saw?

    Tried doing a search but it looks like everyone wants to convert a wood band saw to cut metal. I'm in the other boat, I have a metal band saw that I'm wondering if I can cut wood with. I'm aware of the speed differences, but does cutting slower have any negative effect? I can cut wood on slow...

When we broke up I wanted it gone and sold it for $500 the next day... BIG MISTAKE! Don't sell of get rid of stuff in anger! Better yet, never sell ANYTHING. I...

    I bought the upper and the lower chest awhile back and was totally content but knew one day I would get two of the end locker cabinet. Realizing it was my last chance to pick up matching sides I went on ahead and got them now even though I didn't have a budget for them. I'm using the two sides...

    Harbor Freight 13 drawer tool boxes $271.99

    You can get them from any Snap-On truck. They're a bit pricey but considering they just made my boxes costs 10x more... (ok, not really), but I've told all my friends that they were fake and they all got a kick out of it. I think people like them more KNOWING that they're fake then if they...

    Harbor Freight 13 drawer tool boxes $271.99

    I think the older model might have had a sticky adhesive which I can see how mineral spirit would remove it but mines used some hard clear glue that's rock solid. I tried some mineral spirit on a rag last night and it didn't do anything at all. Will have to try a razor blade tonight, hopefully i...

    So I Come Home to Find My Garage Door Opened for 10 Hours

    I might not have the same problem as you because I dont park in the garage which also means that I don't leave from the garage. But I never forget because I have a sliding deadbolt on each side of the door that I manually lock each time so it's hard for me to forget.
