I am not sure why, but when I was a kid we shopped at JCPenney quite a bit but rarely went into Sears. And both stores were n the same shopping center. As a teen and young adult I accumulated some JCP tools. I always pick them up at yard sales and flea markets if I see them. Memories. Good luck...

I have the Ryobi string trimmer that has the wheel and pivots to operate like an edger. It’s not bad for maintaining an edge, but I would say it was frustrating to create an edge with it. At my previous home I used a bladed edger to establish the edge and then used the string to keep it trimmed...

I had a 24x40 shop built last year and I just went with 4 windows. I bought the smallest vinyl windows that Home Depot had at roughly $125 per window. The builder charged $75 per opening to frame them in and trim around them, so I have about $800 total invested n windows. I have a small window...

Got to be WD-40 for me. I buy it in gallons and transfer to pump spray bottles. Great for a variety of uses.

Is this it?

I have no clue but the trademark looks like an E to me.

I was at one of those miles-long roadside flea market weekends recently. A guy had a no name Chinese 24 inch adjustable on the table. I picked it up and it was heavier than I expected. I asked what he wanted for it, expecting him to say some outrageous price. For his asking price of $10, it came...

I think it was cut down from one of these. But that’s just a guess.

I think it is repurposed. Smith’s Washita produces whetstones. I think it’s from a whetstone like the one on the right.

There are quite a few ROYAL tools for sale on ebay. Looks like a low end Japanese company from the 70s. I found a couple of pliers stamped “ROYAL” and Japan. Might be the same?

The 36 will work well. Before we moved to the country I mowed my suburban yard with a 30” rider that I bought at Sears. Like you, I tried a walk-behind mower but I just about vapor-locked one hot Louisiana afternoon and the hunt for a rider was on! I gifted the rider to my daughter and...

Congrats on the new mower. I am sure it will serve you well. I wouldn’t be surprised if your 2.75 hrs drops well below an hour. Which engine did you get? I see the Liberty can be had with Kawasaki, Kohler, and Briggs. I just got my very first zero turn, but my situation is a little different. I...

WB and a megaphone, perhaps Wooster Brass Company? Apparently a manufacturer of fire equipment.

Home Depot has that on sale right now for $99 and you get an additional free tool. Free tool promo runs until May 1, not sure how long the $99 price lasts.

I get the appeal of Android and Samsung makes some great devices. I have an ipad pro with the Apple pencil and take some hand written notes. But it’s definitely not a paper-and-pencil like experience.

I have been looking at those as well. So far, I haven’t been able to justify the cost to “see” if I will like it and actually use it. Sigh, I have about a gazillion items I’ve bought over the years that got relegated to the junk drawer. That being said, I handwrite pages of notes several times...

Milwaukee works well for me.
