Then I setup the Portercable chop saw and tried it with the "stock" wheel. I set it up outside and it sure does spark and create dust. It didn't cut as well as I thought so I swapped it out for a different blade I bought at the same time and that worked much better. It's loud, its dusty, it's...

I stopped at the steel supply and bought some 1.5 tube to build a cart as my first welding project. Started by unboxing all the new toys... Speed squares, magnets, a 90 degree jig, and some mig wire. I put some wheels on the grinders and wow, the Metabo has some Powah! The Portercable will...

A home alarm and a safe are going to protect you against most burglary cases. They might run in and grab what you left in a drawer but when the alarm goes off after 45 seconds they are going to be leaving pretty quickly.

Just to follow up... I found the local steel supply and bought some remnant stuff to play around with. I'm a total beginner who is doing this as a hobby for fun. I bought the PorterCable battery powered grinder since I already have batteries and I also bought a Metabo grinder, and a Power...

What do you think about the desktop band saws? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EGB72J0/?tag=atomicindus08-20

What is ES&S?

I think I've decided to look into a 4x6 saw as recommended by a few of you. I have the room... Can you buy these locally? Shipping seems to be hit (pun intended) or miss on the reviews for some.

Grinders... duh. I've got these two in my cart, need to do some more reading. I already have the batteries for the Portal Cable stuff and for $50 bucks I'm willing to try it. The Metabo seems to get high praise from a lot of people...

Long story shortened... I bought a Millermatic 211 Mig welder a couple years ago in anticipation of replacing the floor and some metal parts in my 67 Mustang. I then bought a snowmobile and dove headfirst into that for the past few years and didn't get the welder fired up. I'm finally almost...

The view from my cuppola is awesome but I'm not up there much. ha ha.

My 2015 F150 had the same issue, it's very common on those as well. I ordered replacements from these guys and they have been perfect so far. http://www.gorilla-auto.com/lug-nuts

My time is worth more than the few hundred bucks you might save trying to piece it together.... I bought the kit and moved on to real projects.

How more is the concentric vent kit after you buy the parts to make you're own venting kit?

We've been more than happy with our LP Rheem tankless in our house. We have a 2 bed, 1 1/2 bath Townhouse that we rent out. The 40 gallon water heater just gave up and we are going to try this one, it's electric. There is no gas in the townhouse complex...

I think at this point I'm going to leave the plywood unfinished. It looks pretty good in person... The amount of time we have taken to line the panels up for good seems is ridiculous. If I do paint... It would be after a lift, racedeck flooring, Car is running... lol. I'll keep an eye out and...

No updates in a bit... Heater worked great last winter! I finished off the rest of the plywood that I had and it came out great. IMG_20171128_123722 by MikeTTA89, on Flickr I went back about a month ago to buy more and it doesn't seem they carry this brand anymore. :( In addition, the...

As some of the 8 year old replies mentioned above, it's going to be more efficient since the air is being equalized as it comes in and goes out. If you pull air from the inside then the building will create negative pressure and draw cold air in from the outside. I think my beacon morris...

Do a search for Bendpak on here and look at the last ~2 years worth of installs. It seems they changed some stuff and a lot of people have reported quality issues with the newer ones. The older ones seem to be rock solid as evidenced by a lot of replies in this thread... That is just what...

I just put my propane heater in a few weeks ago but so far I haven't seen any condensation issues. I'm heating from ambient (30s) up to 60s when I want to go out there. I have sealed combustion with a concentric vent kit, if anything I think it takes moisture out of the air since it's just...
