    BelAire Air compressor

    Thanks all, I have replaced the check valve and the line is nylon/plastic. I have had this compressor for probably 15 years and never this problem. I have replaced the line.

    BelAire Air compressor

    My compressor has began to blow the unloader line off of the check valve at 100 psi. The compressor will continue to run until I turn it off. I can’t figure out what is causing this. Can anyone offer a thought?

    Question for QuickJack owners

    QuickJack is out untill Tuesday and I need the car down by this evening. I am confused by your bleed valve comment M635. Are you referring to the pressure relief on the power unit? Bleeder on the cylinder? educate me please.

    Question for QuickJack owners

    Thanks merkyworks, I tried that and could not get it to compress. I then loosened the fitting to allow pressure release and although it lost some fluid it did not allow me to reconnect.

    Question for QuickJack owners

    I have tried the down button. I have disconnected the hoses both times previously and had no problem reconnecting. After locking I push the down button to relieve pressure.

    Question for QuickJack owners

    I recently purchased one and have used it twice. I now have a car up and after disconnecting a hose I find that I can not reconnect it. I even had my muscular neighbor come give it a try. Have any of you had this experience and how did you overcome it.

    Quickjack Cautionary Tale

    I am considering purchasing one of these, can someone comment on moving the jacks> I probably will buy the 3500lb unit as all of my vehicles weigh under that. At 60lbs each I wonder how easily I can do that.

    Garage Door "screens"

    I have one on the back garage door of my shop which faces the yard. Before I retired I used it quite often on spring/summer nights to cut down on bugs in the shop. Now I don't use it at all because I am not in the shop after dark.

    Mini Split = Who has done DIY Install

    Very timely thread for me. Have a friend who just installed a Mitsu Mr Slim. He already had the electrical in place and had a HVAC guy do the final connection on hoses. Otherwise he installed it himself. I am planning on ordering the same unit myself on Monday. I certainly expect to do my...

    Help with insulation choice

    Well gosh, it used to show my location. I am in Oklahoma. Visit HAMB and the barn regularly, the garage not so much. I do appreciate the responses.

    Help with insulation choice

    I am planning on adding some insulation batts to my shop attic. I am unsure which to use. I am simply trying to ward off the summer sun somewhat and this winter will use plywood to line the "room". I think R30 is what I will use, but backed or no back? Hopefully the pictures help.

    bats in the attic

    Just dealt with this myself. They were nesting in my eve vents in the shop. I read that they don't like mint. My wife had planted some mint in our flower beds so I pinched off a branch and hung it on the inside of the screen. Gone ever since.

    Floor Jack Time

    ATD 7325 has been in my shop for probably 4 years. Love it. At first the length and weight was a bit hard to get used to, but once I did, love it. Sits low enough to get under 46 and 53 [both of which are low] without driving on boards, has enough reach to get to front crossmembers and rear...

    Wall mount shop vac - $19 at Home Depot

    Great tip. Bought two today. They were not on display but the clerk looked on the computer and found six in stock. They were on the very top where they keep excess stock. I asked him about price and he had to go check that also. He was slack jawed when he saw $19.00. Thanks.

    I know Harbor Freight, but

    I also have the HF that has worked fine for a few years. Have a friend with the same one that uses it daily in his hot rod shop, he also considers it a great buy.
