    Milwaukee, 3/8, 1/2 or both?

    I am not up to date on the "new" cordless impact guns but I want to try one. My shop burnt and I lost all my old air tools. Is the 3/8" impact enough to do most jobs (lug nuts?)or should I get just the 1/2"? Both? I'd like to start out with one if I can. Home hack, not pro-feshinal, but I...

    Danmar D-8 lift, anyone own one?

    Just curious. After seeing all the Maxjax threads I was poking around you tube and saw a pretty thorough review of home shop lifts. This one seems to have a lot more features than the maxjax, besides being portable. Drive through clearance is greater than even much larger lifts. I tried a...

    Anyone recognize this electric motor?

    Does anyone know what this motor would be/was used for? I don't remember ever seeing one with such a long housing? At first I thought maybe it was an integral gearbox, but the more I look at it , it doesn't look that way. Just curious. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/165153968264549/

    Picked up a free workbench, Serious patina!

    I just happened to see this free workbench listed on FB. Woman put it out on the curb but no one was taking it so she put it on FB. I messaged her to hold it for me and I would give her $20 if it was there when I got there. She kinda held it, so it cost me $20. Said it was her fathers and he...

    Paint the foam on inside of O-door?

    I thought I saw this asked here already, but I can't find it. I want to paint the inside of my insulated overhead doors. They got pretty nasty while I didn't have heat or lights and the spiders went nuts eating and pooping all down them. Plus the color is pretty nasty next to my nice metal...

    Leaving extra wire for future outlets?

    I'm running EMT around the walls of my shop. 120 and 240 circuits for random tools. I am only going to put 240 outlets in a few spots that I know of for now but want to leave "extra" wire at each box. Is there a preferred/easier method of doing this? Can I just loop and tuck it in the box...
