    RoundUp Substitute

    You can get Remedy on line but they all use the same chemicals. I simply don't believe the corrupt WHO, they ones that said Roundup was bad.

    Help with a lift!

    I picked mine up at a freight forwarder where they loaded it with a fork lift. At home, I unpacked it and carried it piece by piece into the shop where I put it together.

    Do you mop the floor?

    When I was in the US Air Force we had a 4,000 sq ft shop and it was swept, stripped, mopped and waxed every week. Fast forward 22 years and my 1,500 sq ft shop is swept and mopped every week. About once a year I get my large floor buffer out, put a scrub pad on and get rid of all my over spray...

    House to shop intercom

    I have an intercom between my metal shop building and the house. They are about 20 feet away at the closest point. The Wife can page me when I'm working or I can page her if I need something. It's worked great for about five years now. Bought it off amazon for around $30.

    Ask Rapidair!

    I recently added an connection outside my shop for some metal restoration welding I'm starting on and was very surprised how coiled the line was, it made it very hard to get a seal with the push in fittings. It appears to have a memory as it recoils as soon as I let it go. Tried heating it with...

    Pulled the Trigger today -Mr Cool DIY AC

    Well I was going to take pictures but it went so smoothly I was done before I got the camera. Arrived in perfect condition, packaging was the best I've seen. It took more time to put in a separate circuit for the unit than it did to hang the head unit. Installed in a steel building but no...

    Our local Volunteer Fire Department has a 135 PSI, single stage compressor that has been here for years. Our Engine and Tanker require 120 psi in the tires but the most we can get in the tires is 98 psi. Gage at the compressor reads 135 psi but tire fill gets real slow and will not fill above...

    Advantage 4 post lift arrived

    Don't try and use the casters with a car on it, the casters can't handle even a move a an inch or two. Without a car, they work great.
