    Looking for a way to quiet down a lawn mower

    Upgrade to double-pane windows, and leave his damn lawnmower alone. My 600cc Kawasaki powered commercial mower is twice as loud as my Honda, so if someone complained and tried to bolt noise suppressors to my mower, I'd laugh in their face and tell them to go eat a bag of dicks. You seem like...

    Thanks for that info, I did not realize their hydros were driven differently. The commercial's wheels are made of Nexite®, what my deck is made of - while my wheels are plastic. I'll upgrade to the Nexite® wheels if they ever give me a problem.

    Consumer, yes, but not necessarily low-end, designed to fail in a few years. Honda's Nexite® deck has a lifetime warranty and will never rust. Commercial motors last 3x as long because they're OHV with cast-iron cylinder sleeves, but it's still all about maintenance. Most homeowners barely...

    What Is This?

    This thread made me realize why my hand saws always bound up when I was a kid. I never saw that tool around, so the teeth were probabably not offset to clear the blade. Once I discovered power tools, I just never thought about it again. I just remember fighting with those old hand saws and...

    Lisle low profile filter sockets

    Nah, I used my regular 24mm socket on a MINI Clubman, I might have used a wobble extension with it though, can't remember for sure.

    Far as reasonable price vises go Tekton 6 in.?

    NWS Pump Pliers

    I love mine, haven't had any issues with their hardness or whatever. I have the satin chromed versions, first pliers I've ever had that just don't rust. I can't even get the chrome to chip. The handles are the best I've ever handled. I only have the 10" waterpump push-button "cobra" and...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    Wow, some really cool beasts in this thread. Mine was cheap and serves me well. I assume it's made in China and it's about a year old. TEKTON model #54004 $46.99 It's just nice to have a vise.

    Far as reasonable price vises go Tekton 6 in.?

    I got a Tekton 4" vise, because I needed a vise and it was easy to order it from Amazon. They shipped it in the same box as a bunch of smaller stuff, loosely, and it basically crushed everything. It was really oily, but that's cool. It has a rotating base, and an anvil area. I mounted it to...

    S.O. Ratcheting screwdriver

    Okay, but you knew it was an SMF, and not the smaller SNG, without seeing how many screws were in the handle. Good eye. :bowdown: $25 on an adapter is nothing, compared to 48548 with his 9 fancy new ones, above your last post, DANG: 48548, are they all different? How is the 3rd one, black...
