    Electric Hammer for Whacking Things Hard?

    I hate I missed this one. Would have bought all they had with or without rebate. Hopefully something else will soon pop up.

    Engine Oil Hot Deals Permathread

    I'm not seeing this online in my local area. But noted above one needs to visit the store, which I'll do this afternoon. I'll stay tuned for other options as I don't yet need the oil but will by mid-year.

    About 6 years ago I scored a lot of engine oil for $1 quart at Advance Auto Parts. I've now used most of it and will need more. I noted this sale at Costco, but I'm not a member and they're not local. Why don't we keep this thread running specifically for motor oil sales? Costco Oil

    Fun weekend critter house build

    Yeah, looks nice but hope it isn't so light that it blows away. There's a historical documentary about that happening.

    Toilet Fill Valve - What is this at the Inlet Connection?

    Probably a flow reducer to slow the refill of the toilet to save water. But none of that makes sense.

    These plugs look like they have one blade turned 90 degrees and won't work in standard outlets. Am I looking at them wrong?

    2023 Lowe's deals/sales/clearance thread

    My local Lowes has some Knipex for 1/2 price. I got a pair of 10" cobras for < $20 before the sales tax. They also had a pair of long needle nosed plies that I should go back and get.
