At a previous job when I worked the customer counter we had to tell customers that it may take up to 30 days for the credit to show up in their account even when we were running their card through the machine. Most likley it is your credit card company causing the delay if the vendor has issued...

thanks for all the input. I thnk that I'll take it to my local mechanic. This morning with the wind chill it was -6. The windshield was nicely warmed but my feet froze on the way into work.

Hi All, This is not really Garage related but looking for some help or where to find help. Have above mentioned truck. Have a HVAC problem. When using the heater the air flow cannot be directed to the footwell, it does blow out of the dash and defrost ports. Had this problem last wnter but as...

+1 on the DAP product. Used quite a bit of it 6 yrs ago when we put new mouldings around all the windows and doors. Huge difference in air flow. Almost eliminated window sweating. Had to put in a make up air kit for the furnace. Clean up was easy as well.

Would suggest contacting the cement yard where the contractor is getting your concrete. Ask if they have an alcohol based accelerator instead of the calcium chloride. If they do not, ask how much you would need for your job and if they would be willing to have their drive add it onsite in the...

Not many Hammerheads in MI, but a good way to justify traveling to places where they hang out to go diving

At the beginning of this year our township instituted a new code for sheds. Any shed over 25 sqft needs to have a permit pulled and drawings submitted. Level of drawing detail varies based on size of shed. My neighbor found out the hard way a few days after I helped carry out the the base frame...

It sounds just like the make up/fresh air in my house. High efficiency furnaces and hot water heaters need extra air to burn efficiently(sp?). Without it they starve and performance drops considerably and you could get incomplete burning resulting in CO. Link below is what is in my house...

Is that a clay pigeon thrower on the roll bar??:beer:

As an alternative to make your own. Northern Tool has them for $9.99 plus S&H http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_12800_12800?srccode=cii_5784816&cpncode=21-79536554-2&cm_ven=Aggregates&cm_cat=pricegrabber&cm_pla=Category&cm_ite=14264

Hello All, I've been on the forum for a couple of months. Pardon my late introduction. Hmrhead is for my like of Hammer Head Sharks, although my wife might comment on the density of my head being that of a hammer.

Get this, guy across street asks me to help him carry the base for a shed he is building. 10x12 big enough to get the lawn mower and trash cans out of the garage. We level it up, I help him set the walls. He works on it for a couple of days comes home and finds a red stop work tag. The township...

Sorry for your loss. You can do all you want to protect yourself but if people are determined to steal from you they will. We had a close call a few months back. Kids clipped the phone line to bypass the alarm to break into the garage. About 6 months before that we switched to Comcast for phone...

Have used reclaimed wood in 2 homes. Would do it again, great look! As for the ends you can recut the grooves with a router table or a table saw. No need to waste good wood. Very easy, just make sure you always run the wood through your set up the same each time, ie finish side to fence or...

+1 on all of the above. All the dyes fade over time. Reds, Browns, and Black fade the fastest. Matching color samples is almost impossible. You need to make the sample using the same mix as the pour with the same dye ratio as the pour. If sample was made prior, close won't be. Reason: sand come...

Make sure you take the multi meter and check voltage. We have a Honda EB11000(10 Kw) generator. It was the top of the line portable gen. when new. Love that it starts easy everytime, but had a problem when we first started using it. Its voltage was high, we bought it new and never thought to...

We originally talked about shorting the outlet and seeing which breaker popped. I'm gald we didn't.

I have a 10" ceiling in my garage and I just use the threaded hooks with plastic coating on them and hang them by their wheels, works great. During the usable season I keep my wife's bike on a rack on the wall as she can't reach her bike when its hanging from the ceiling.

He got billed for the power he used, the outlet was connected directly to the meter lugs not before the meter. We asked the lineman if he had come across any that were tied into the incoming line prior to the meter and said hes only come across intentional illegal hook ups jumping the meter.

The lineman that came out said its not common but more homes have this situation than people are aware because few people ever change their outlets. Most common place he said was the garage as thats where the trades set up to keep out of the weather.
