    Best Very Low Profile Jack

    With the exception of the color, that Sunex jack looks almost identical to the Harbor Freight Pittsburgh 68050 that they no longer appear to carry and the specs are essentially the same. I've had good luck with purchases from Acme Tools & Rakuten is offering 1.5% cash back right now.

    The Ryobi Tool Appreciation/Review Permathread!

    Has anyone used the angle grinder included in the current Ryobi Days deal, the P421? Looks like the grinder alone can be had for 45 bucks and the reviews seem mostly positive. My grinding needs are pretty light and pretty rare, but needing to grind and not being able to grind is never fun.

    Should I drill into my brand new work bench? Uncle gave me a vise

    My apologies for bumping an old thread, and this soon to be rambling post, but this seems like a good place to ask for some ad'vise'. I have a Craftsman Professional 4.5" vise, an apparent clone of the Wilton 1745, and a Gladiator 6' maple top workbench and would appreciate some thoughts...

    Best Very Low Profile Jack

    When did HF quit selling the low profile 68050 model Pittsburgh jack? I have that jack and it appears to be under 3” clearance. If I recall correctly, max lift was around 24”.

    Menard's Deals Permathread!

    Does Menards give actual cash back rebates, or is it still store credit only? I’ve bought some stuff at Menards recently and I just assumed the rebate was still store credit. I’ve got some rebates from years ago that I’ve never used.

    Stihl Pressure Washers

    I ended up getting an RB600 a couple of summers ago. I didn't use it at all the first summer, but I used it quite a bit last year. Overall I would say that I'm quite happy with both the design and performance, and I'm surprisingly impressed with the Kohler engine. I'm just a homeowner, so it...

    2100 sq ft of Racedeck Freeflow installed!

    Looks cool. I need to do something to my floor. I have about 850 square feet in my garage. Is that Gladiator cabinetry? I've got four of their 30"x30"x12" welded wall cabinets I bought years ago from Sears that are still in the box. I hope they aren't dented if I ever get around to...

    Pressure washed deck, now what?

    I would be interested in seeing some pics and hearing more about your experience. My deck is pressure treated lumber. When my house was built in 2010-2011, they told me to do nothing to the deck for the first year or two. I've now followed that advice for 7-8 years and feel like I'm at the...

    Mobil 1 - New round of rebates, low as $2/qt.

    I was going to ask if anyone had ever scanned and deposited these checks with a banking app. I deposited my two electronic checks over the weekend and I was at a local Chase bank for 30+ minutes while they figured out what to do with these checks. My first experience was much less painful and...

    Mobil 1 - New round of rebates, low as $2/qt.

    I submitted a rebate on 09/30 and got my electronic check on 10/30. I'm pretty sure that was quite a bit faster than the last promotion. I have a second submission from 10/21 that is still processing. Neither of those submissions is showing up on the rebate research site.

    VCT tile now done. Looks great!

    On a scale of 1-10, how difficult is this? I would like to do something to my garage floor. I've got a three car, with two drains, that's approximately 850 square feet. Not sure whether the drains, or associated floor slope, would make a lot of difference.

    Mobil 1 - New round of rebates, low as $2/qt.

    I've redeemed many times for purchases of five quart jugs. I suspect if that were not an option it would be clearly spelled out in the terms & conditions. I've also submitted without issue for online Walmart purchases. I believe I just submitted a screenshot of the online receipt, or perhaps...

    Woodpecker and cedar siding-how to stop?

    I have woodpeckers that occasionally go to town on my direct vent fireplace's metal chimney. Sounds amazing, especially at 5am-6am.

    Aircat 1055 stubby coupon on Amazon

    I used mine this weekend to rotate some tires. It probably worked better than I thought it would. My 6 gallon compressor will do 150psi and I set the regulator to 90psi. Like you said, I was able to remove several lugs before the compressor would kick in. It certainly seemed faster than...

    Best Insulated Garage Doors

    My Amarr Classica 3000 doors seem pretty nice, but I never really compared them to anything else. That was the brand carried/offered by my builder and I never checked out any others. Living in Michigan, I will say that I'm very happy I went with insulated doors. It's pretty easy to heat my...

    Mobil 1 - New round of rebates, low as $2/qt.

    Looks like Autozone just started a sale on five quarts and filter for $29.99. Looks like you also get some kind of NBA tote with this deal.

    Aircat 1055 stubby coupon on Amazon

    My Aircat arrived today, minus the battery. This is the smallest impact wrench I've ever seen. I'm looking forward to giving it a whirl. It might end up being a good reason to get a larger compressor.

    Aircat 1055 stubby coupon on Amazon

    I think I found what you guys are seeing, but I had to scroll to the bottom of the page I linked and click See More Details. I'm assuming that's not accurate. I ordered one, so I'll see what gets delivered.

    Unless I linked the wrong wrench, I'm not seeing that.

    Aircat 1055 stubby coupon on Amazon

    For anyone interested, I stumbled across this, which is a bit cheaper than Amazon. The quantity is pretty limited right now. https://www.ebay.com/itm/231970586723
