The old store is still there. I see it every day when I'm pulling out onto the highway. That Bonneville was still parked in the carport during my last trip to Morehead for a shrimpburger at El's.

Old Cherry Point Road. :D

Not me. :D The only thing I've had for home use are Black and Decker Ni-Cd tools. I've used Bosch and DeWalt professionally, and I think Milwaukee's comparable. Also an infinite step up from B&D. They show no sign of slowing down in 6+ years of constant use around the house. Red is sexier...

Another vote for Milwaukee. I have a drill and 1/4" impact, both M18, bought about 6 years ago from CPO Tools as refurb units. They're still going strong. The battery life is amazing. I have corded versions of everything else that I normally use, so I haven't bought more of their cordless...

Double post.

I've been seeing a lot of good reviews on this one: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-52-in-18-Drawer-Tool-Chest-and-Rolling-Tool-Cabinet-Set-Black-HTC5206-HMT5212/205431577 $498.00 :thumbup:

I have some old, hard plastic Stanleys, a couple of cheap 6-in-1's, and some Klein knock-offs with the rubber grip handles (think: electrician's tools). My favorite, by far, that I use 99% of the time is a Klein 10-in-1. I could probably get rid of all my others except for the huge flat blade...

My first step would be a nylon-bristled scrub brush, dawn, and hot water. Gentle steps first, as I wouldn't want to mess up any brushed finish. Then I'd try acetone or paint thinner to soften the paint left over. If that doesn't work, give some paint stripper a try, and use plastic scrapers...

http://www.jacobs-online.biz/nichrome/NichromeCalc.html Use nichrome wire and the calculator in the link to see what kind of power you might need. Plug-in transformers that are used for routers, phone chargers, child's toys' battery chargers, etc, can be used as a power supply. There are some...

That code is good until 01/02/17. Received via email.

I only use them in my truck, so they sit, tangled, in a small Rubbermaid tub behind my seat. I use one every other day to tie down my mountain bike and often when I go to the lumberyard.

I bought the cheapest one I could find at Radio Shack in 1996, and it lasted until 2014. Unfortunately, the batteries leaked inside it and ruined it. I bought another from there, and it works great for my needs at home. Kinda hard to find one of those stores around, though.

My dad's best friend's first big workshop was built this way a little over 30 years ago. He poured a roughly 60x40 slab and formed the walls on top. I don't think he used layers of foam, though. When the walls were still wet he sprinkled small river rock on them so they would have that...

Great advice. See if you can find a source of pallets that have been shipped from overseas. With so many overseas suppliers nowadays that shouldn't be too difficult. Pallets like that should be heat-treated for pests and are normally used for just one trip over the ocean. The company I work...

I noticed that, but there were others. Just takes more searching. They even use the same picture as the HF website. Shady ain't the word... :D

I tried to find what you were talking about but couldn't. From the pic in the link below you would think the engine was for sale, but it's actually just a new take-off fuel tank...

I'd use furring channel (hat channel) instead of strips since you said you have moisture issues. I wouldn't want to put wood directly against a wall that sweats. http://www.clarkdietrich.com/products/drywall-framing/furring-channel-hat-channel

Walking on Pledge is like walking on butter. I'd give it a good cleaning with Windex or something that'll strip any oil off the top.
