    Mower blade sharpening jigs

    What makes one better than another? Any recommendations? I live in a very, very sandy area and my blades get trashed fast. I've been buying new blades every season and running them until they're about to come apart. I was thinking that if I had multiple sets to interchange I could get a better...

    Which type of closet flange extender?

    I'm seeing different types and the reviews aren't anything I trust so I turn to those I do trust. The GJ folks. I had vinyl plank floor covering installed in my basement over existing concrete. The closet flange was set years ago and the concrete floor is actually a bit higher than the top of...

    Cutting brush below soil

    I'm looking for a set of loppers (I think) that will be strong enough and durable enough to stand up to the rigors of cutting below the surface. Leaving any kind of stump makes it hard to mow and the shoots just come back from the remnant. It's probably asking a lot and if it's made to withstand...

    track saw blade recommendation

    OK, after all my stubborn resistance, I have ordered a Makita corded track saw with a 55" track. It appears there is no blade included. For immediate use I will be ripping oak and pine. Along the way I will be using it for sheet goods for furniture and cabinets. It is a 6 1/2" saw. Can I hear...

    15 degree offset DBEs in metric?

    I have some nice lengthy ones in SAE but don't see a lot in the places I've looked for metrics. Snap-On has nice ten degree but just not even a chance I can justify that cost. These will be for home shop use. Suggestions?

    Witte screwdriver set for $15.00

    They're the budget version of Witte. I have the slotted version. Pretty basic drivers but a cheap opportunity to try out some of their products. https://hausoftools.com/products/maxxpro-screwdriver-set-3-pieces?_pos=1&_sid=7162690de&_ss=r&mc_cid=41a1bcf87f&mc_eid=7f95e71353

    corded palm router

    My budget allows the Bosch 1.25 HP, the Makita and the Dewalt. Am I overlooking others? I thought I was going to go with Makita even though I have a lot of Bosch but the reviews aren't so great. Neither are the Bosch, for that matter. Not interested in debating corded vs. cordless. Appreciate...

    3 x 21 sanding belts

    Sure a lot of options online. I've always tried to use 3M but they don't seem to be lasting as long as they used to. What other brands are out there that aren't frustrating junk?

    Rockler half lap jig

    https://www.rockler.com/rockler-router-table-half-lap-jig I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this product. I have a bunch of cabinet doors to make and my current method of half lap is pretty crude and not particularly safe in that my fingers are the only thing holding the material...

    Are all flat panel LED lights equal?

    Looking to install a handful of 2x2 led lights into a grid ceiling in my basement. Are there brands to avoid? Should I avoid big box brands or jump on the value? Does dimmable bring problems to the table? I'm doing all the work myself and would appreciate input from those more knowledgeable...

    range receptacle : 3 prong versus 4 prong

    My house was built & inspected in 1998 and has a 3 prong electric range receptacle. I'm currently installing another kitchen and have duplicated the wiring in the service panel for the new breaker and wire using 6/3 with ground and a 50 amp breaker. Is there an advantage to one over the other...
