That is like Williams S-52 1/2" drive ratchets around here, they are everywhere.

Went to one pro estate sale this morning and got skunked. That said the estate sale company is known to be high priced so not surprised I left empty handed. Small ranch in nearby city, small city lot but a huge newer 3 bay pole barn. Don’t know how that happened but the guy had his priorities 😆...

Was looking for a cheap socket set to throw in one of my vehicles so found at Advance Auto a set on clearance. 68 piece 1/4" & 3/8" drive in SAE & Metric, item # DHP55149. Not in stock at my local Advance but in stock at an Advance in the area of today's errands. Online at $37 + tax. Looks to be...

Should be spelled out in at least your State Residential Building code section R402 I believe.

We will see how it works out but for the price worth taking a flyer on. (y)

Diehard stuff from Advance Auto , 3/8" flex head ratchet, 3/8" wobble extensions, screwdriver set. Carlyle 6 point metric combo wrench set picked up new and cheap off fleabay.

Laterally supporting the hinge location is only as good as the back-up system that is stabilizing the joint. In residential type wood construction this is often done by a second floor subfloor diaphragm that spans laterally from side (shear) wall to side (shear) wall. Having the 2nd floor 3'...

Got any slow draining clay soil under there creating a "bathtub" ? You can have stone but may need to drain somewhere if surrounded by slow draining clay.

There are a god awful number of types of cold formed steel framing members available depending on the needed use. Some of the biggies. https://www.clarkdietrich.com/ https://www.marinoware.com/

How does the flooring 3' above the sidewall top plate effect the gable end framing ? Gable end balloon framed ?

@neharr41 , wow great opening act !.......... and another you **** for the Wilton (y)

For the longest time I've been running a very small 2-stage Honda and fuel consumption has been understandably light. Unit has been giving me trouble now so bought a back-up unit, a much larger DR brand 6hp 24". Have also been a little shocked at the lack of fuel consumption given the bigger...

Shout out to Proto/SB&D. Picked up a couple years ago a set of used Proto reversible ratcheting wrenches which the style has been discontinued for awhile I guess. Well I have a thing for wrench/tool- pouches/rolls so I contacted Proto to see if they still had the associated wrench roll available...

When I peruse two post lift manufacturers concrete support requirements I'm shocked that they don't explain how far away control joints need to be from the foot print envelope of the two post lift. Talking about when they are talking about requirements for slab-on-grades which are typically...

Same. Nothing on the shelves and not even a space and tag for them. Asked the help and only one chimed in an said a shipment just came in and is in the back. FWIW the shipping box only contained 2 for some reason.

Nice pick up. My mom was probably in her early 70's when she had that car in silver, she was always stating that car can go ! :LOL: I drove it occasionally, great car with very smooth acceleration.

Went to two pro estate sales this weekend, one was a bust and they other had quite a bit of newer USA Craftsman stuff which is usually not up my alley unless seldom seen in the wild not to mention typically overpriced at pro sales. Well saw the Craftsman Professional metric flare nut wrench set...

I've always assumed a majority of Snap-On tools that are priced like that have sellers willing to ship overseas to folks who will pay the higher prices simply because of lack of availability in the purchasers home country. I wish E-bay would let you filter out items where the seller is willing...

Productive weekend. Don't know why, but it seems the pro estate folks have good tool sales in the fall for some reason. Pro-estate sale with a garage full of all kinds of mechanics tools. Incredible amount of sockets sets with the term used loosely with most sets all mixed up with different...
