i think you are wrong, i believe the LED compatible dimmers change the waveform of the AC current, not limit the current. exactly. i like the functionality of the dual brite. the idea of lights coming on at dusk and turning themselves off after a few hours, all while maintaining a working...

bought a new dual brite motion sensor for the front of my house. in case you don't know about them, they behave exactly like a traditional motion sensor, with an additional function of being able to automatically turn the lights on at dusk for a specified period of time, dimmed about half way...

more info on how you connected an iPhone to the TV using an HDMI splitter please.

X3 This is the best way. Period.

Just bought 2 coils the other day. As an FYI for pricing for you, a 24"x50' roll was around $80 each.

The bostitch is awesome. Works flawlessly. Available at all the stores, as are the nails. Trigger can be switched to suite you (trigger then tip contact, vs tip contact then trigger). Some of the best money I ever spent. Edit: easy nail height adjust too. No tools needed. I know the paslodes...

i have a couple of those, and they are fun to make small parts on. they take up very little space, but are definitely limited to how large of a part you could reasonably make. i wish i was more familiar with current pricing, but i got each of mine for sub $100 by being at the right place at...

A keg is only $30

More info on your door being that close to your ceiling?

put your shop computer in the cabinet, since it's probably running some/all of the time anyway. computers make a good bit of heat.

this. make use of your more easily accessible areas.

I'd run 3/4" t&g for the floor tho, not 1/2", but yea, that will work for a while. Realize their are different grades of pressure treated lumber (depot or lowes may not carry it, but real lumber yards likely will). Direct contact with dirt is hardest on any piece of lumber. Stone under the...

Anything short of tearing into it enough to figure out where the loads are being transferred, is just a guess. I know it's a vague answer, but the supplied info is equally vague without more details and pictures.

Every few months another story of a compressor that exploded shows up. I don't care how old or new your tank is, this should, and does scare the **** out of me. So what can be done to make an air compressor safer? Obvious preventative measures include frequent tank draining, newer equipment...

judging by the fact that you said you were on your deck when it happened, i'm assuming it wasn't an overpressure situation, otherwise you would have heard it running and running? the tank could simply no longer hold the rated pressure.

Foot lever is for when you really get cranking on it, so it doesn't want to tip backward.

Do they still sell the orange one? Is the grey one nicer or not as nice as the orange one?

finally got around to building a stand for my 48" enco box and pan. i figured i'd post it because none of the other 4' finger brake stands i've seen met my specific needs. requirements i was looking for in a stand: smallest footprint possible, while still maintaining necessary stability 4...

Generic questions get generic answers. I'd sprinkle some ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms throughout, combo or mixed. Each type is better at early detection on different types of fires. Perhaps even add a temperature based sensor in an area where normal detectors aren't recommended...

I'll be the first one to say it, but I don't really see the usefulness (in the average garage/shop). Granted, it's an awesome conversation piece, and would surely be neat in some places, but it is cumbersome and in my opinion, doesn't really belong in most garages for space reasons. There are...
