    Hammerite....out of business??

    I've heard that original Hammerite is out of business and all you can get now is what other distributers bought from the company. I loved the stuff and used it on everything from car restoration to household. I have a large 3-400" wrought iron fence i would like to paint with their Hammered Grey...

    Multi-weight hydraulic fluid??

    I have a double scissor 7000lb lift that I keep outdoors but don't use in very cold winter days. I assume it is the hydraulic fluid getting thick in the cold that makes it run slow until spring comes around and was wondering if anyone makes a multi-grade fluid that would perform like a lighter...

    Twin scissor lift problem

    I have a Twin Busch scissor car lift and it is running slow, going up as well as coming down. I have heard that it has an oil filter that may get clogged and cause this but I don’t know where to find it. Does anyone know where the filter is located or if there is a possibility that something...

    Pros and cons of converting to low water toilets ?

    Redoing bathroom and thinking of replacing an old 5 gallon toilet. Works well when that bathroom is constantly used but we have hard water and calcium builds up on every part when no one uses it for months (granted that will happen to the new one after a while as well.) It looks good on the...

    Scissor Lift Hydraulic hose

    While installing my Twin Busch double scissor lift, I added quick-disconnect fittings and adapters. Now that its assembled I really would like to make it easier to disconnect so I am thinking of extending the hoses from the lift platform about 3'. A fellow on this forum had a set of new hoses he...

    Waiting for a Twin-Busch full-rise scissor lift

    After much searching I have decided on purchasing a Twin Busch 6K Double Scissor Lift. I can only keep it outside my garage on my 6" thick 3000 psi pad and I will keep it covered when not in use. Of course as luck would have it, when I decided to order it, it was out of stock....for 2-3 months...

    Need this Circuit Breaker...???

    Bought a battery charger from Harbor Freight ( I know, first mistake ), didn't need to use it for a couple of months or so, when I did it immediately blew this circuit breaker because it had been assembled poorly and the wire grounded out on the case. Called them many times, put on hold at best...

    A Question and an introduction...

    Hi, Like the site, been around cars all my life, antiques, resto-mods, hotrods vettes and daily drivers. My dad had a service station all my young years until I was 27. Loved the idea of coming in any time and putting my cars on the lifts to check anything out. Always been a nut about detailing...
