    Anyone else working in a sand sea?

    How about 1/2" (1 cm?) steel hardware cloth, or even chicken wire? Roll it out before starting work. Roll it up after, all the sand falls out and the tools get scooped up. Might be too bendy flexy, I dunno. Maybe.

    Would you ever build a privacy fence out of metal roof tin? Seems to cost the same as wood pickets right now

    Agree, I don't think I've ever seen this in MA or CT either. Plenty of metal roofs though.

    LED Landscape Lighting

    I agree with this approach. My wiring had a short circuit and the power switch wouldn't stay on, it kept tripping. It's a combination switch/breaker. I found and fixed the short and all has been good. I used Volt transformers and lights (all dark sky compliant), they seem excellent so far.

    Is 3/8" Pneumatic Impact Still Relevant?

    They're relevant to me because it's what I have and it still works perfectly. I changed careers 15 years ago and still have all my air tools, including my beloved 3/8 drive Ingersoll Rand impact gun. All those air tools still function as designed when I take them out of the toolbox, even when...

    Switched to combo driver for electrical screws. Wish I'd done this years ago.

    Agreed. Torx, Allen, or Phillips are all preferable to square drive. Many have a slot so you can use a standard screwdriver too.

    Switched to combo driver for electrical screws. Wish I'd done this years ago.

    Thanks, that was a very helpful article! If I was encountering these professionally I'd invest in the bits. Never saw them much on cars except maybe hose clamps. And those are even better with 1/4" socket drive too.
