    Show us your sewing projects!

    That is cool! This thread makes me feel guilty as I talked my wife into having an older machine taken in for a once over(couple years ago). They had us look at new ones suggesting that it may not be cost effective to maintain/repair. Turned out it needed almost nothing and is in great shape...

    Look familiar? rack attach system

    Thanks for the response, no I have the rail (attached to my RTT) and the hardware just like the photo, but it sits to close to the edge of the roof rack. Instead of modifying the rack I figured a longer, one piece, inner slide nut (not sure what else to call it?) would give more stability. I...

    Look familiar? rack attach system

    Trying to make or preferably find a one piece slide for my Roof Top Tent. I could have a machine shop make one but I'm hoping to find a cheaper route. Fishing for links, ideas, etc. As it is now you can see in the picture its a two piece(the slide part) attachment due to the width of my roof...

    1966 F100 EcoBoost Engine Swap (EcoBoosted)

    I'm thinking whatever happens with the 4x build, it is bound to be entertaining. I bet you have mixed feelings about letting one go. But onward and upward! :beer:

    Salt kills weeds better than Round-up (any downside???)

    DIF since your post is about weed killing..... :thumbup: I spoke with a lady at a local hardware store and what she told me seems logical to me. In the case of Blackberries she mentioned cutting a slit in the vine and soaking a small rag with (don't recall which killer) and stuffing the wetted...

    Salt kills weeds better than Round-up (any downside???)

    four.cycle, good info! Pulling blackberries for me is enjoyable but so hard to find the time. I have made lots of progress on mechanical removal. But at 53 my lower back dictates if I can consider such actions. Still not sure about salting in my yard. The torch is great for two weeks or so...

    How important is garage closely matching house style?

    Shed roof, really don't see them much outside of custom home neighborhoods. Ours is the only one in my area that I know of. Grid is handy but I need to invest in more hangers. Still have a few sections I'm needing to use.(instead of store) I did use a section on my roof rack build on my camp van.

    How important is garage closely matching house style?

    My shop (link in sig.) is in the front yard, therefore we spent bunches more than if I put it in the side yard. Back yard septic and creek ruled out that. At the time we were thinking it'll be our last house. Now not so sure? The investment is in the use while owned not the resale.

    Pexto 30" vintage slip roller

    Mines actually not threaded. Square drive, so simple. Or for some its simple. I'll complicate it somehow. :lol:

    Nonhog Garage

    Truck/van same thing :thumbup: Last year has been a combo of pulling **** off the shelves and putting it in my way so I have to deal with it and getting the Volvo closer to a driver. Mrs. Nonhog drove it to work several times this year. Also doing up a camp van. 2 " lifted Safari AWD. Lots of...

    Pexto 30" vintage slip roller

    Thanks that is awesome. Was planning on a straight arm but now I don't think so. So far on the back burner I'll have plenty of time to figure it out in my head. :beer:

    Pexto 30" vintage slip roller

    Looks like a standard roller, no release to lift a roller? Still cool, I have one w/o the handle I need to study that picture so I can make a handle.

    Question on OSB for workshop walls

    I'm not saying the fire risk isn't real but its plenty hard (for me) to light OSB on fire. Use your own judgment and make yourself at ease with your choice. I personally use sheet rock near where I grind and weld. OSB on ceiling and maybe someday walls? this link is only meant to be thought...
