    Good source for Ryobi batteries?

    Need some more. Now I haven't yet scoured the entire internet. But it always seems like someone has a link to some obscure site that doesn't show up in the search results anyways. Some site selling at cost or below cost; or having a sale or rebate. Anyone know of a place?

    Rebuild kits for Craftsman Floor Jacks?

    My question is; who thought it would be a good idea to put the model number and serial number on a sticker on the top of the jack?! Mine got scraped off shoving it under some low vehicle at the time. The other jack was just given to me by someone I know and his sticker was falling off so he...

    Harbor Frought; pick a tool, any tool

    Same price; same model right? One might say; oh only the grips are different. Same tool underneath? Same metal, same heat treat, same maker? Maybe. If they have an item with 6 sku's; sometimes 5 of them will be from China and one is Taiwan.

    Harbor Fright getting sneaky?

    Disappointing not knowing where it's made. I could have sworn I took a pic of the back of the package. Nowhere could I locate country of origin. If someone is in there tomorrow get a photo of the back of the package or I'll stop in and get it.

    Need better portable socket storage option

    Just using the freebie holder that came with the sockets. Too bulky; plus being plastic it wears and the sockets easily fall off. I need some sort of container so I'm not fishing around in the tool bag for 1 size.

    How to fix door that drags on uneven floor?

    Door closes fine in the door frame/jab(fits well/square). Swings out and clears just fine. Till it drags on a highspot on the floor. Anyway to sand or grind down the floor without it being noticeable? Thought about "clearancing" the underside of the door a little?

    120V light fixture only has 8V?

    Metal conduit to it and 2 "sheathed" cables going out? Light switch on wall seems to have no effect? Short of calling in an electrician; how would he go about tracing the light fixture and switch? ----- Bonus image. What's inside? Nothing!? Where's the breaker panel at? Outside!

    Putting a room in an old attic

    Really old attic in a basket case house. Female friend wants to put a "yoga room" in this space. Thinking fiberglass bat insulation for the roof. Panel it with something. Floor it with something.. But! Look at that octopus of air ducts right in the middle of everything! Also those inward...

    WiFi light bulbs

    Just started looking into these. Anything a "standard" yet? Anything the best in the market? Best deal on the market? Would be nice to control any light from the phone. Would also be real nice to have control of ceiling fans from the phone. And a front door lock that opens with the phone...

    One tool you have likely never used

    But you'd use it every time you had a stuck bolt or fastener. The knocker. https://www.browntool.com/Listview/tabid/344/txtSearch/knocker/ProductID/97/Default.aspx Used to use one of those daily. Think about a situation where a fastener has been tightened to the point that it's now stuck or...

    Story on unbranded Western Forge wrench?

    Always wondered how these were sold or why they were made. Suspect it was a factory second as the "coating" had a flaking/bonding issue on the edge. Is this wrench Sears fallout or an unbranded Proto? Image of front and back:

    How to ID craftsman wrenches?

    Nowhere does it state where they are made. Each wrench had a different number. Does the AD stand for after the downturn of Sears? I really hope these are made in at least Taiwan and not CN. Why would they even bother to take the effort to stamp AD on each one?
