Bit of a crazy question... Friends' new garage pad is just waiting on weather to pour (will spring ever come?) We were having a crazy thought - is there a product that'd stick to a freshly cured / sawcut pad - that we could get down before the actual garage package gets to site? Thinking it's...

G'day all, Quick question - not finding relevant googles... And I can't figure out my cnczone password (and its apparently to an ancient email because I can't find which one it goes to). Picked up an allen bradley DPDT panic / emergency stop switch; trying to think through the best way to...

Well this fell into my lap... How could I say no... cost... "Get it the f*ck out of my way" How could I say no at that price? (Don't start on the piles... Yes had to shove around the garage to accomodate some unusual projects; and re-jigging a bunch of storage shelving to accomodate)...

Knowledge needed please ;) Trying to help a customer out - fixing hail damage on unobtanium material (ie fix 4 dings or replace 5 doors so they still match) But sanded smooth it very obvious where the bondo's been layed - as the rest of the material is textured... So have been trying to press...

Had a contractor (who I'm never using again) do a 2 tone paintjob on a door... Luckily I unpacked it and checked before installing... Now I have to clean up this mess: My hands not steady enough for the pinstripe fix, tape + very light coats is still bleeding (tried 4 varieties of tape; the...

8yrs old... Code has been 3800 all it's life... Don't make it easy on thieves; it's hard to guess when there are 10,000 possible codes... It only takes a minute to get through 16 possible combinations. Keep the cover down, get in the habit of punching in 1234567890 at least weekly so the...

Ok, long story short, already in a ******* match with the MD... Stop work order on one project, they wont let me have a permit (It's a ****** greenhouse repair - a couple 2x4s are rotted and some of the siding needs replacing, I shouldn't need a damn permit to replace a dozen 5' hunks of 2x4...

It's come up before... But I can't find the thread now... So what do you do - if you want a highlift, with a 3800 - and the builder didn't leave adequate room? Side wall not deep enough to even cut a pocket in - to make the space? Require's a second collar, shaft gets split, need to kick...

Since I say it over and over and over... Maybe a picture will say a thousand words more... That's my brothers opener... That big fire at the top - was because he was running CFL lights in it... The board caught fire, connectors caught fire - the case got melted - if it had caught fire - the...
