    Step ladders what height for 14ft ceiling ?

    I would disagree with the podium ladder. Those things are the most obnoxious ladder for working near the top. I despise everyone of those I find at a work site. They are either too high (so standing on the last step from the podium with nothing to lean against, or too low. I'll take a regular...

    Generac Standby Generator Radiator

    Since you have it out, what is the core size? What is the inlet and outlet size? Overall height/width. Where aprox is this coolant level sensor you mention? Does it look like this one with two top outlets?

    Wilde 570 - what is it?

    BIt of a mystery on my hands, I can't find it in the Wilde catalogs that are on archive org, I find nothing similar in any snap on catalog, and nothing coming back for me on google images or google lens. Anyone recognize it and what its original intended purpose was? Approx year it was...

    Roof steel screw placement.

    Whatever you prefer. Or, if you don't like answering questions, whatever is commnly done in your area so you don't have to repeatedly answer why you did it one way or the other. =-) Theres an argument for the flats, being able to tighten properly, which prevents egging of the holes as things...

    I need an alert to let someone know when the garage door is open enough to drive under

    My initial concern with a light system is that the driver starts watching for the light and just goes without looking to make sure somebody (aka you, kids, dog) has walked into the path. But you can easily DIY your own green light. Lever switch with a roller + light duty angle iron + wire +...

    I stumbled on this air rifle at P.A. Kinda last minute, sale ends tommorow. If you look at air rifles it doesn't even show up on the PA website. I probably ended up on it via googling and landing on the product page directly. Beeman dual calibre 10609lvc $139.00. 5 are left at the London...

    I'll be another PicQuic supporter here. My work picquic has an original phillips #2 that I still use to this day--its my third handle at work (I used it throughout the day, it gets beat up). The reason I use the original #2 is I find it has a proper #2 fit, there was a point where they...

    Where to buy a boot for a car jack?

    It seems we get lots of oddball torin/big red jacks here for a short time and then gone. I won a couple 20Ton low profile jacks at a local auction, no where to be found on the torin or big red website, it showed up on a google cached amazon search, but following the link took me to the current...

    No shut off valves for outside water faucets

    Don't count on the perceived lack of wireless as a good timeline. I work in IT, I do not have wireless in my house, dedicated ethernet run where I want it and have zero plans to add any wireless. Better off to look at the construction and if you can look above the ceiling to see what sort of...

    Enegry use/KWh per sqft comparison

    1.32kwhr/sqft avg. for the year. Single, 2100sq ft house. So that skews overall results as it is. I don't leave lights on, and usually work with low wattage LED desk lights. (I hate artificially lit bright rooms, bugs my eyes) and I don't leave lights on unless in the room. Motion lights...

    Anyone Want to Take a Gamble on a Very Cheap Made In China Chainsaw

    You are not wrong, but I think the divide between then and now is that the gap in usable quality is a lot smaller. Back then, cheap got you junk. Now, cheap can get you something that will hold up, sure there is still a lot of cheap junk, but you now can find something cheap and usable more...

    Makita vs Milwaukee

    1.Makita. They have always been comfortable in hand. 2.Dewalt. No complaints, i'm Dewalt at work, mostly because at the time they where the only ones that could supply me a 90º drill RIGHT NOW. Otherwise, I'd still likely be Makita at work. Milwaulkee battery tools will never find a home...

    My New Found Love; Dremel

    Still have my original dremel, been through hell and back over the years. It blew up its internal flex coupler a few years ago and I bought a dremel 4000 at that time becuase CTC had them for 70% off. Replacement flex couplers where stupid money here in Canada, so got the 4000 becuase the sale...
