They will store fine on their side, as long as they are supported so they don’t sag. They a ***** to install if they’re sagged or warped.

Excellent advice from ConCretin. In the PNW the terminology is: float and smooth trowel. What you don’t want is a “hard trowel”, hard trowel will get a shiny slick surface.

You dont want aggregates (gravel) for patching.

Old black mastic like that was often asbestos containing. Use proper precautions.

It’s not a frost issue, it’s expansive clay soils. You either need to dig down to below the clay, use piers, or pour some sort of structural floating slab.

Those are two different welds, should have separate call outs IMO. Top is a filet, bottom would be a flare bevel. Not sure the .197 is large enough for a 3/16” weld though. Weird the designer doesn’t know the proper call out.

Sounds like you have moisture coming up through the slab.

No, it does not!

Yup, concrete quick bolts.

Wow, this thread brought back some memories! I had a Maccano set, my favorite build was the crane with a bent roof panel. I remember the little wrenches and bent handles screwdriver.

My Milwaukee slow 3/8” with 55 ft lb rating would give a bit a jerk when it ran fastener tight, the high speed @ 35 ft lbs is easier on the hand. Both can be used as a manual tool to lossen or tighten fasteners. Neither are as fast or as torquey as my old air ratchets though, but work well.

Our safety policy for table saws, miter saws, etc… is min. 40” above standing surface.

I have both the 3/8” high speed and slower higher torque model. I love the high speed. Can it break head bolts loose - no. But as a nut runner it’s great.

It’s for a British car!

I have a 50# kayak on wall brackets, with two 2 1/2” wood screws on each bracket. Been there for five years.

Kayaks aren’t that heavy. I’d use three #12 self tapping screws.

Magnifying lens for your helmet, they’re awesome for old blind welders. You can get them in different powers. I have some from Miller, but I’m sure other companies make them. Game changer.

Depends what type of soil you have, if it’s good fill material then yes. You’ll probably need to cut at least a foot or more off all the site to get past the organic material.

’cause they’re not made in a city and state. They’re made in rural India now.

I managed to turn a 20 minute battery swap on a Harley into a 2 1/2 hour ordeal after dropping a screw into the final drive sprocket. Fun stuff!
