I put in nylon rollers, lubed the hinges, and installed a belt drive Chamberlain a couple months ago, and it's a good bit quieter than the old screw drive Genie with metal rollers... My guess is about half as loud. A good bit of the remaining noise comes from the springs rattling against the...

I second firebrick, this is exactly what they're for. Great for high temps, don't break, and will help keep your temperatures more constant due to the thermal mass. Just **** them up against each other tight starting in the center, and cut the ones around the edges to size as best as you can...

I have that, and love it. You'll be happy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm just a DIY type guy... About a month ago I bought the Mastercool hydraulic tool, and sure wish I would have done it a few years ago. Perfect frustration free flares every time! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

In theory, it would work pretty good. I'd run a PID controller based on tank pressure to control a VFD running your compressor motor. With the VFD, you shouldn't need PFC. Now finding/assembling all the right components is a different story... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I agree, don't feel stupid. I'm mainly "an office worker" too, but you might be surprised that you might get a surprisingly good response from the sales guys at the lws. Worst case is that you just walk out and buy online anyways. Best case is that they'll help you figure out what you want...

A couple basic things to check, although I'm not very familiar with your specific machine... Is your polarity correct? Are your gas connections good, and have you verified flow out of the nozzle? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nah, it won't damage the male threads... Whenever the nut is forced back over the threads, it'll chase them and clean them right up. It won't loosen easily or on its own, it'll have to be forced with a wrench. Might have a hard time deforming the face of a small nut with a pin punch. No...

If the fastenall route doesn't work, my vote is for: loctite, double jam nut, peen the male threads just above the nut after its tight... In that order

What Stuey said. Generally, battery packs have a specified discharge rate (C rating that tool manufacturers don't provide), basically they can discharge "all their current" in a specific amount of time. So, everything else held equal, a larger battery can provide a greater peak current at a...

Just curious why your electrician said no? As a side note... It looks like whoever stamped that pump nameplate got the pressure and speed swapped, haha!

I have a ryobi 18v blower, and it does a "good enough" job. I also have a ryobi 40v weedwacker, and am happy with it. So, I'm thinking I'll be happy with a ryobi 40v blower when I find an excuse to buy it. Make any sense?

Nice job, they'll love it!

Make sure to check your cover gas connections also. A couple months back my Lincoln 180C was welding like ****, and checked the cover gas by holding a lighter infront of the MIG nozzle and pulling the trigger... Didn't blow the lighter out. Double checked the connections and found that the gas...

I have the 12" ridgid slider on the roller stand, and it's been a pleasure to use

I just picked up the Bosch 4100 with gravity rise stand off of craigslist two weeks ago. It's a really nice saw, especially when you take the time to align the blade and set up the fence properly. I suggest getting one and taking the time to set it up right, you may very well be happy with the...

Portaband... It's portable, you can cut as accurate as you want, and doesn't take nearly as much garage space as the horizontal bandsaw. Only thing you give up is potentially a small amount of capacity... But who cuts 6" pipe vey often?

I'm pretty sure the drill, impact, and both batteries have "recon" (or something like that) branded/melted into them. It's inconspicuous, but there...

This is a pretty good deal. I got the same deal a year or two ago and it's been flawless. M18 brushless drill, impact driver, charger, two 4ah batteries...

I'm all about more efficient new designs. So the hybrid claims 67% more efficient... Just makes me ask the question... Where is it getting the excess more efficient heat from??? ie... It's taking the heat from your house to hear the water. That way the water tank mfg can say that they're...
