    Harbor Freight Coupon Thread

    I tried, but they would not take it. Nor would they take a picture of a 10% off lowes card I got off the net ( to be fair, though, that picture did not include the bar code at the bottom of the card). Bought the ladder anyway.

    Nice Extension Cord HD

    Clicked on the link today and it said $39.88. When the op first posted there was no price. I suppose HD finally caught up with their error. I will likely be going there for some other things today so I may just give it a shot and see if all the stores have got it right.

    Problems with using high bay lighting in an 8 ft garage shop

    In that case, would you know of any 6 bulb low bay fixtures? Or should I not bother and just get more of the 4 bulb units?

    Problems with using high bay lighting in an 8 ft garage shop

    I am considering using 4ft 6-bulb fixtures in my garage. Saw these at HD and looked really bright http://www.homedepot.com/p/t/202193185?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&storeId=10051&N=5yc1vZ25ecodZbvmb&R=202193185#.UR1MMx03vIc I called Lithonia and they said there would be dark spots since the...

    I am such an idiot!! But I have a clean engine

    As a side note. I had to stay at work last night, and during Sandy we were without electric almost 3 weeks. So I setup the generator and go through all the instructions with my wife. Turn off the main breaker, throw the switch on the generator, turn the choke lever and start the engine. Make...

    I am such an idiot!! But I have a clean engine

    Living in Long Island I prepared the snow thrower before the storm.. Filled with gas, put it near the garage door. This morning I go to start it up ( had not done so since last year) and it was running very rough. Certainly a fuel problem I thought. After all, I did not empty all the gas...

    Harbor Freight Coupon Thread

    Thanks Junkman! Now if the folks at Lowes will accept it I will apply it to that 24' Werner ladder I need. I also have plenty of $ left on the HF gift card my wife gave me for my birthday so it will come in handy there.

    How About This: Buy From Epstein's Day?

    Bought the 29 pc Norseman Super Premium Drill Bit Set. $99 w/shipping. Been looking at these for a while. July 4th seems like a good day to support an American small business!

    Milwaukee drywall saw

    I seem to recall seeing a thread on one of these somewhere, but I cannot seem to find it by searching. I am looking for a drywall saw, but came across this http://www.milwaukeetool.com/tools/hand-tools/quik-lok-job-saw/48-08-0401quik-lok-job-saw, which looks pretty versatile. My other thought...

    Is this a workable job offer for an auto mechanic?

    Lifts, hand and air tools, etc. That's the "cheap" stuff. Once you start purchasing computer diagnostic equipment for all brands of cars the $$$ come up fast. If you are looking for a hobby shop and to offset costs, maybe get a local club or a couple of buddies to share the space, bring their...

    Property with TWO detached out bldgs!!

    Find an empty lot and build to your own specs. You'll probably be much happier in the long run. Shared driveway- not for me. Also,as JC mentioned- check utilities. Once you have to start getting upgraded service and new wiring (around here once you touch something they make you update the...

    Needing a Prentiss Vise Swivel Jaw Pin

    Great. I did not think of that. I guess I'll unbolt it, flip it over and have a shot at that. Will still heat/kroil a couple of more times first, just to make it easier and increase my odds of success.

    Needing a Prentiss Vise Swivel Jaw Pin

    I have a Prentiss 19 that I am trying to remove the pin from. I have hit it with Kroil for several days, tried heat, and no luck so far. I also tried a large pipe wrench to try to break it loose by turning it, but the wrench really started to dig in and mess up the pin. Any suggestions on how...
