Using a finishing nailer to put up nice ~1/2" ply on interior garage walls. I assume this means I can't paint the sheets until they're up. What's the best material to fill the holes with before (non-oil-based) painting with roller, so the holes (and filler) don't show? Best grit to sand with...

Turkey Baster seals and works! MityVac is on the list...

You know I've been wondering about that? :)

Damn. No I have zip; just what's in the package. Didn't know about the dual-chamber ones at the time...

Videos I've seen with this, the bulb is sitting right on top of the main piece. No idea where they got the bulb, though...

Bought a kit, doesn't come with a bulb. Anyone know where I can find one that will work in this application? Not even sure what type I'm looking for. Everything I see is medical or scientific. When I add automotive to search, I wind up with light bulbs... TIA! Needs to work with this...

That's all I have...

Can't do it with the rooftop tent (it's a hardshell), which is designed to be supported from the bottom. That's roughly 60x80 right there, including box. So I may as well make a rack for the other items. Otherwise, I've got a 60x80" area of floorspace taken up by an item that's 15" high. Given...

If it's not that big, it's going to be awfully hard to manuever the items on/off the rack. I'm using twice that space now with things sitting on the floor, and the space above them is useless.

Items I'm thinking of are no more than 150# each. One will be at tailgate level, for ease of sliding in/out of vehicle; another near roof level, for sliding on/off.

I was unaware that the term had been hijacked by home decorators. If you add 'restaurant supply' to a search, you'll find something like this...

I need to store several very large objects vertically, because they take up a ridiculous amount of floorspace. Think: rooftop tent, cargo system, roof rack with accessories. The largest item is 60x80, The idea is, three shelves including the top, with at least 15 inches between them, each...

Couldn't hurt to check it out, if you have suggestions. Expectation-wise, I'm going to be photographing some vehicle work for publication, so it has to at least look better than the messy shelving it covers up in the background. :)

Ha. As it happens, I'm in Los Angeles. :) SFV :(

Looking to run a curtain across the back of the garage, in front of some shelving. I do NOT need heavy-duty or oilproof or transparent material, or an accordion wall. I just want to block the view when the door is open. Maybe an 18-20 foot run. Looking for ideas for overhead track, whatever...

I'm used to it--but it's still educational! Someone did say it doesn't much matter for calipers and woodwork. Really, hundredths of an inch would be extremely precise for what I mean to do.

Same story with calipers? This would be for woodwork and perhaps some automotive fabrication of non-moving parts (brackets, things like that)...

I believe HF brands are Chicago Electric, and Pittsburgh. Chicago micrometers seem too pricey for HF. There are two questions--who makes quality stuff, and which of these--Chicago, Baileigh, Proform or Powerhouse--is best-in-group. Second question because I find myself with company credit at a...

Interested in knowing who makes high-quality tools, whether digital or conventional. Also--if you had to choose from ONLY THESE BRANDS--who makes the best micrometers: Chicago, Baileigh, Proform, Powerhouse? Thanks!

Hmmm. I was thinking of porcelain teeth wearing on adjacent, natural teeth. Perhaps a poor analogy...
