    Looking for Organizational Ideas

    I had my wife help with the cutting of a 3/4 melamine to cut a shelf for one of the cabinets a weekend or so ago. It didn't go well. I had extra melamine material from the 4x8 sheet HD made me buy so that I could make my 27"x34" shelf. I thought, well since I'm going to have to buy another...

    I imagine for pawn shops its more important to keep inventory moving than to get top dollar. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

    Pretty good deal! Does it run? If so I'd say that's a definite you ****. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

    I put in an air conditioner and plan to install a ceiling fan to push the air around better. I did move all of the family stuff out of the garage and into the shed. I also got rid of a bunch of stuff recently. As for the VW parts...we'll see. I was considering getting another VW pickup and...

    J p Smith - dryer. I'm pretty sure that came from HF. I think there's a better pic of it in my profile. I'll check later when I'm in front of a computer. EDIT: It's an air control unit. Designed to filter air to remove moisture and particles and also to act as a pressure regulator. I...

    Ncaddy87 - my dd is a Mini Cooper S. My only tow vehicle is my wife's minivan. I rarely get to use it. Hence the desire for a truck. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

    Harbor Freight Coupon Thread

    Yeah, that was lucky. Even after the ITC fee you still come out (with tax) less than the normal sales price. With our 8.3% sales tax it would put me out the door at $343.30. OTOH, I could have bought the floor model for $300, not bought ITC, and ended up at $324.9 out the door. But then I...

    Harbor Freight Coupon Thread

    So then your price was $287 ish before tax? Good deal. I didn't think they'd apply any other discount on top of the sales price, even ITC. Food for thought. I gave serious consideration to a floor model they had on sale for $300 but decided to wait. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

    Garage Buddies

    My dad and I used to work together when we lived under the same roof. I think I was about the only person he'd trust with his tools back then. I'd been helping him in the garage since I was 5...maybe younger. My stepdad usually had me helping him, too. As an adult I never really had a GB...

    AC does alright. I'll turn it on and let it run for an hour or so and it will bring the temp down from 90+ to 78. I don't run it any cooler than that in the garage. Saturday I went down to Habitat for Humanity ReStore to see what their formica countertops look like. Most of their stuff was...

    Help me choose a 60 gallon compressor under $1200

    That's a good suggestion. My CMan compressor isn't an oilless model. It's the black one and I've had it for about 6 years. My dad bought one of the Cman oil less (sealed?) units back in the late 80s. Burned it up in about a month. He replaced it with the same size Campbell Hausfeld that...

    Larry_AZ - I was planning to go to the Restore. The pallet shelves would take up too much space in my garage. I'm kind of with what a bunch of the others have said...keep the **** out of the garage and get rid of as much as I can. I think that's my main strategy. Sent from my SPH-L710 using...

    Help me choose a 60 gallon compressor under $1200

    No love for the Sears 60? I have one and it seems to do alright though I'll admit it hasn't seen real heavy use. It was only about $800 as I recall. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

    SuperMegaCliff -- Welcome and nice box! I wonder -- how much of a PIA is it to keep that white finish clean?

    let's see your craftsman block grinders

    I don't suppose someone can either tell or point me to a thread that explains why there are different HPs for grinders? To my uneducated mind, it seems like you'd just want the strongest you could find. So, why would someone want a 1/3hp if there are 1hps out there? Also, design aesthetics...
