    Portable paint sprayer recommndations

    I'm in a similar boat. For a little over a year now I've had my eyes on the Dewalt battery powered Graco Ultra Max airless sprayer. I've never used a spray gun before but with some of the upcoming paint projects I would love to have one in my arsenal...

    Looking to buy a lawnmower

    I think you're correct with the push mowers being the same at box stores and dealers....however when it comes to tractors, the units sold at HD other box stores are very much inferior to that sold by the dealers. They're lawn tractors and they can't even remotely stack up to to the garden...

    Can I run a 32” bar on a Stihl 462

    I believe the saw is rated up to a 32" bar. If you're running it through hardwood it will be certainly at its max capability. As Bob15 said, can you run a 28" and just roll the log or hit it from the other side?

    Light Fixture Layout Collections

    Thank you for clarifying the Kelvin question. Thank you for the layout as well. The gap between the garage door/track and wall is closer to 16" rather than 12". I pulled quick numbers and rounded. I know you dislike less than 2' of space between. The fixture and wall. Unfortunately I have...

    Anyone have a coupon that does have a max limit of 3 on it for the 18" magnetic tool holder. The limit used to be higher or was non existent a year ago when I bought a dozen for my last home. https://www.harborfreight.com/18-in-magnetic-tool-holder-60433.html

    Attic ladders

    I have a cheap 300lbs rated ladder now and hate it. What's worse is it's between two joist so the OD of the ladder is 30ish. That leaves the stairs to be maybe 22". You can't get a reasonable sized box or tote through the opening. When it's time I'd like to go permanent stairs or at least have...

    4ft 2-Lamp LED Retrofit Strip Fixture Reviews

    Re: Maxlite LSSXT8USE4803 4' 2-Lamp Continued Just to confirm when using the Maxlight LSS2XT8USE4803 and the GreenTek GT-T8-18W1200 BIXX-1-F-50K LED bulbs there's no need to remove the ballast from the fixture correct? Simple wire the fixture to your power source, and pop the bulbs in, no...

    Oscillating Tool attachments - are they universal?

    I have wondered the same thing. I've just stuck to the Dewalt stuff to ensure proper fitment. Last thing i'd want is to break the tool or the blade with my hands so close and those things moving so quick.

    Klein at Southwire prices

    I'll tell ya what, that Journeyman series they make is quite nice. I was remodeling a my 1958 cape a year ago and got sick of my hand me down electricians tools which really consisted of a linesman plier that didn't open smoothly and was just slowing me down. I ponied up and bought a dozen...

    Polyurethane on prefab shed floor?

    Man that is a nice find and foolish to pass up. When we moved to our new place in CT in the fall the house came with a Carefree shed that was 10x12. The weeds were growing inside it more than on the exterior. Side door is rotted out and hinges fell off. Front double doors are held on by moist...

    Cost for a professionally done epoxy job ?

    Not bad if it includes the grinding as well. I think to do it right it's less back breaking to just let a reputable professional do it. Too many guys want to say DIY and then complain 6mo later when it's chipping.
