    Costco Tire Center now installs/services other tires!!

    Should depend on the wheel. They crimped weights on the outside of my old (80s) Volvo alloys and glued weights to the inside of the alloys of our newer Mazda.

    Costco Tire Center now installs/services other tires!!

    Another Costco tire center fan here. I switch between two Costco places, depending which one is en route. Both locations have super friendly folks, clean workplace, clicking torque wrenches. In emergencies with no appointment, yea, the wait can drag out. Thanks for the deal info. Never took...

    Wyze 20 Dollar Wifi Camera

    Neat, ordered two. With USB-power only required, I'll try to add one into each daily driver Can it be used as a webcam? Does it send data over USB, or cloud / local storage only?

    Wiha wrenches...that soft-gripped kind.

    Base price is not bad but after almost $20 shipping and $10 tax for WA, getting them straight from Wiha would still be cheaper for me.

    From the supplier: "Our hope is to have the stands back in stock by the end of this month. It has been a long and arduous process going back and forth with the local machine shop that makes these for us. We received several samples this week though so we’re getting close!"

    2017 HD deals/sales/clearance thread

    By accident. Digging for 1/4in plywood, came across two sheets IronPly Plywood (Underlayment). No price on rack. Rang up as 1 cent each. Had no luck finding more at my store. (Cashier called for help to confirm and received answer to mark them NC - no charge, saved TWO CENTS! :) )

    1st own house - crawl space woes

    Thanks for that tidbit, I have heard about it years back but never remembered / saw it on checklists when considering properties / buying this one! I had to look it up. A Radon test has been performed in our neighborhood a few years back. No significant levels have been found.

    1st own house - crawl space woes

    4x8 Plywood, tongue & groove - 1.125in thick is what we found during the bathroom reno. The pattern continued in the adjacent rooms and can also be seen from below. My 230lbs can jump around and the books stay in the shelves. I'm not opposed to the idea to let it sit w/o insulation until next...

    Makes sense. (We rarely see days in the 90s and humidity in the summer up here is normally ~60%.)

    1st own house - crawl space woes

    Some research later, the span seems somewhat normal in the area / neighborhood. Afterall, they used 4x10 lumber and the thickest subfloor available. I'll take closing off the crawlspace into consideration and will request quotes for that as well. Rather skeptical if I want to afford it.

    1st own house - crawl space woes

    Thanks for all the replies & sorry for the delayed response from my end. - Yes, I should have been clearer. The ground is bone dry and covered with a barrier. Sure is a cheap, translucent one as I can stretch it with little effort. It will be replaced in the process with more attention paid to...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Bent shaft on my mower a few weeks ago. Found a Deere JX75 for $60. Swapped parts, tuneup, went over transmission. Works like a charm now. Can't wait to mow the dead weeds. Was looking for either a pressurized lubrication engine, or a cool 2cycle Suzuki, property has some mean slopes, and a...

    Bridgeport EZ Track mill - hard drive failed

    Hi all, The DOM (disk on module) / hard drive on my Bridgeport failed and I do not have a backup. No, it does not boot from a floppy, instead there is a 8MB module, similar to modern-day Solid State Drives. I can replace the drive, no problem, but: Would anyone have a source, or a lead on how...
