    Stenner Pump failure

    The pump cycles 6x a day for 15 minutes maximum; well below the rating life it is spec'd for friend. The hoses, which are a critical component of the pump should not be failing so soon. Thanks Lee. The rollers are free spinning, however a while back the phenolic gear shaved it's teeth and I...

    Query on car lift width

    Bear with me; I am in the midst of finding a 2 post lift for my barn. It has a decent width with 3 openings. I plan to put a lift in the middle, but want the widest lift possible (if there is such a thing)Meaning with the lift unoccupied I would like to be able to drive a dually or an RV...

    Stenner Pump failure

    Thanks guys. I got tube #5, specifically for my needs and the pump is well within its safe operating parameters. My biggest issue is the tube. At $13 a pop, they are an unnecessary expense. I expect it to last a year or better not a month or two. I don't mind the noise MagKarl, I am on 5...

    Stenner Pump failure

    I was just curious to see how many of us are using the Stenner Injection pump for their holding tanks. The one I use injects chlorine into a vat for house use, once it leaves the well. It just seems like every few months (less than 65 days) I am replacing a Phenolic gear or the darn tube that...

    Best air compressor for home shop

    Best air compressor for home shop

    I will scour CL for a deal on a compressor with the things mentioned above to include a large tank, 240v and quality motor. I am in no rush, just doing my due diligence. My buddy is coming back from Afghanistan in 68 days so we will set everything up piece by piece until we are complete. I...

    Best air compressor for home shop

    Thanks for the answers gents. I will scour Craigslist and maybe HF for a dual stage vertical compressor for under a thousand. I have a plain compressor now that does well for air tools, but I know it will not survive doing anything else. If I can source dryer and other attachments from HF...

    Best air compressor for home shop

    Still reading up on air compressors but I would like to get a few recommendations from people who paint and wrench in their garage. I plan to use the compressor to run my plasma cutter, a mini paint booth on occasion, sand blast booth and power my air tools.

    The Nest Thermostat

    Same here. I love mine. I keep my Malamute in an airconditioned bathroom outside and it's cool to be able to modify the temp as needed while at work. Also great way to piss the wife off (Don't do it)

    Squirrels and bats are ruining my builds

    Is there an effective way to trap and release squirrels? Maybe something I can buy. The are tearing through the insulation in my barn, eating the wires in my cars and defecating on cars pending paint work. I don't care to kill them, though my neighbor has offered to "off" them for me. What...

    Ideas for stable retasking

    Ok, I have a 40x80 foot barn with 2 stables 16x9. I was going to fill in the stables with dirt and concrete but I really don't want to permanently get rid of them. I plan to actually turn one into a paint booth for personal projects. However if I decided to sell the house someone with...

    Best light spread

    I am replacing 4 sets of lights in my barn using T8 fixtures and bulbs. My questions are two fold? Should I use 4x1 or 2x2 (4 bub enclosure) What is the brightest bulb allowed or do they cap out at 4100k 32w?
