    Looking for advice on non-functioning air compressor purchase...

    Could have burned up a winding, too. Either way, I'd buy it and watch for a used motor...if it even needs it. I run my unit on a 50 amp breaker. Minimum would be 30 amp. Who knows...maybe they toasted the breaker by loading it and popping it too often. I'd buy it. Bought lots of "broken"...

    Need to buy a chainsaw; best bang for used buck?

    Look around, and something will come your way. I have a clean Husqvarna 350xp I picked up "not running" for $75. I replaced a cracked fuel line and it fired right up. I also have a Stihl MS290 I paid $150 for--nothing wrong with it except the PO needed cash. The Stihl is a much heavier saw...

    Cost of siding

    I think Hardiplank was about $5 per 12 ft last time I purchased. Each board at that price covered 5 sf. So...dollar per SF, plus paint at $100 per 5 gallon premium exterior. House wrap, removal of old siding, ect. Add a couple $300 windows in there and you have yourself a large bill. For a...

    School me on an air compressor rebuild...Speedaire

    it is triggered by the unloader switch on your pressure switch. It relieves the the pressure between the tank check valve and your compressor piston, allowing the motor to start up without a heavy load on it. It leaks every time the compressor switches off.

    School me on an air compressor rebuild...Speedaire

    I dunno about the top for sure without seeing it. Probably just bad gaskets. Replace and flatten the head in case it is warped. That little brass guy is part of the unloader valve. It is supposed to leak :)

    Other than a bonfire any suggestions on what to do with . . . .

    My dad used to build wood toys from small 2x cut offs. My favorite was a wooden car about 12 inches long with wheels made from circles cut with a hole saw from 1x. Axles were wooden dowel. I am 30, so it wasn't that long ago. I plan to do the same for my children.
