Skipping the microwave and coffee maker drops your needs down to a Honda EU2200. Add an interlock to your panel and use it with gasoline until you upgrade to propane or NG. Cold brew coffee tastes better anyway! It is more than you want to spend but, we’ve powered our house through an...

That's AWESOME !!!

Way too simple! You should build carts with folding legs (like a gurney loads into an ambulance)!

I'm not sure about tubes that small but, the larger sizes are often sized to fit inside each other to save on shipping costs. A real concrete supply house should have longer lengths.

Right? I’ve been printing small statues of my coworkers from a single picture, thanks to AI. I can only imagine how good it will get. The guy I work for just had orthotics made, the podiatrist scanned his feet with an IPad instead of taking an impression! Of course the insurance company was...

Spend a grand and set up a 3d printer to print custom wrench holders that match your wrench sets!

I just ordered this USA set on closeout https://www.tekton.com/high-torque-screwdriver-set-drv43017

A variable speed head will always be louder than a belt driven one but that doesn’t sound too bad. The plastic bushings wear out, causing the noise and aren’t too expensive or difficult to replace. It doesn’t sound like they have been completely beaten out, causing serious damage. As far as the...

Same. I’m so bad about not taking my hand off the Chuck key that I often leave it in random places because I carry it with me without realizing it.!

I’m in the film business. It wasn’t uncommon to set up a sign guy to build signs and bend tubes for a few months, things sure have changed in 40 years

Impressive!

I had that conversation with my boss a few days ago. That’s something we both agree on!

Unfortunately l won’t be near my equipment until March of 26.

I can’t find a picture and I’m working out of state. I have swing away tables on each end of my 1340. It’s just an angled square tubing arm that registers on a pin with a table top that has a central pin in it as well. I use them for all of my pertinent tooling and parts when I’m working. They...

Do you buy tubing with the proper ID for the barrels? I’ve never seen you mention boring or reaming the blanks.

It’s not worth the effort! Just adjust the framing to the sheets, and run with it. You can make them perfect as you go. Don’t overthink it!!!

Start with a plumb gable and move the trusses into alignment as you sheath the roof. Laying out 24” centers on the plywood and moving the truss into place is standard procedure.

Yes. I have a hot air welder that works very well but I often use a soldering iron because I can get deep penetration without softening a wide area. You can use strips of plastic cut from another box as filler material if you don’t have any plastic rods. Just make sure you are using the same...

Don’t use glue, use a soldering iron to melt the crack closed.

The box store dehumidifiers don’t last very long. Instead of spending $300 every other year, consider a whole house unit. Our 70 pint SantaFe will pull 5 gallons a day and it has a 6 year warranty! https://www.santa-fe-products.com/product/compact-70-dehumidifier/
