I have a 72" Gladiator bench that I bought several years ago. They're quality benches, imo. Mine has the maple top, which they no longer appear to offer.

Yeah, I totally get that. I'm sure I could drive by my gym and get sore. I always try to ease back in after a layoff, but it's usually never easy enough. I haven't been incredibly active in terms of exercise since the pandemic started, and I've done zero weight training, but I did do some...

This is off topic, but I lived in Georgia for 8-9 years and have been to Augusta a few times for practice rounds. It's a really cool place. Practice rounds used to be general admission and I think tickets were $8 right before they decided to implement their lottery system. I haven't been...

Thanks for responding. Are you a golfer too? Apologies in advance for the long post. I really don't have a gym, or even a workout room, and until this past weekend I had nothing at all. On impulse, I picked up some Weider dumbbells, 10s-40s in 5lb increments, from Walmart via a...

I just started trying to piece together a little home gym. Over the last few days, I've purchased some Weider dumbbells from Walmart and a couple of rubber stall mats from Tractor Supply. I have to say, the mats & dumbbells look great on the floor of my garage. Someday, I plan to move them to...

This is just in time to get some oil for my mower. I had toes & fingers crossed that a rebate would pop up in early Spring. Is $27.47 a typical price for extended performance at Walmart? My mower is going to love some Extended Performance. My yard should be afraid. I’m kinda surprised there...

Interesting. I've never changed the belt on a front wheel drive car, or I would have likely experienced this myself. Everything I've ever worked on has been a standard engine orientation and I never even thought about front wheel drive cars.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll probably try that. My panels are only 4', but the same principle would apply. It probably becomes a bigger issue with the longer panels.

The bowing. I'm just assuming my walls are flat and square and had never considered needing to check. For all I know, it may be likely that they are not. Is it the wall, panel, both, or can you tell? I know that some of my four foot panels aren't perfectly flat due to the way they are...

I've got a bunch of 4' Gearwall and Gear Track I need to hang. I've had the stuff for years and I need to get off my rear and put it up. I've never done anything like this, and worry about effing it up, but figure I'm probably capable. Your situation isn't something I had ever considered.

When would this come in handy? I can't claim that I've changed/removed/installed tons of serpentine belts in my life, but I've never felt like I needed any specials tools. The latest model car I've worked on personally is probably a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It's possible things have...

I had never clayed a car until a couple of years ago. I have a 1994 Camaro Z28 that sat in storage for a long time. I decided to take a DA polisher to the paint, which I had also never done. I clayed it first, and put my hand in a plastic sandwich bag and ran it over the paint before & after...

It might be worthwhile to do some brand comparisons, assuming you haven’t already. A lawn forum that I read regularly seems to have good things to say about the current iteration of ECHO blowers. A lot of people seem to like Redmax products as well. Dealer support is also very important. I’m...

I finally pulled the trigger. I bought enough stuff I don't need, and will likely never use, that I might quit my job and open some sort of grinding/polishing/fabrication of things nobody would ever buy business. All I wanted was something I could use to sharpen my lawn mower blades, but my...

That's good to hear. The amount is fairly insignificant, but with enough of them it starts to add up.

I actually received them today. For others who thought their rebates may have gone missing, I guess there is hope. I just realized I have some more to mail in, but I've missed the final mailing by a couple of weeks. Hopefully they will be accepted.

I checked the rebate tracking site this morning and the rebates I mailed in late June/early July are now showing up, so at least they weren’t lost. I figure I’m only about ten grand away from a free 56” Masterforce toolbox.

He currently has 1,666 posts. Coincidence?

Is this something they run all the time?

Are people getting their rebates in a timely manner? I really have no idea what's normal, but I mailed in some rebates many weeks ago now and it's not even showing up on their rebate status site. That may be completely meaningless and I suspect there are probably more rebate filings now than...
