    My google-fu is failing this morning. I'm trying to find where I can get a set of these rods but can't seem to figure out the name of them, any ideas? See also the video:

    220 help

    I just bought a Zeny Cut 50 plasma cutter and the power cord for it comes without a plug, it needs to be end user supplied. I have this Leviton 50A-125/250V (NEMA 10-50P ?) plug in my garage and this is what the panel nearby looks like (see pics). I figure the cutter has a max. 8' cord on it...

    Metal garage cabinets

    Another website I check frequently is Retro Rennovation. Yesterday they had these metal cabinets that are self-assemble, cheap, and can be either retro or modern. Might work in some instances in garages. I'm considering a sink base for my wife's corner of the garage for a repotting area...

    Seattle RTE Garage

    THE NAME: When we bought our house in the summer of 2013 our real estate agent talked of houses being 'RTE', or how they Return To Earth. Our 1955 house is doing just fine but the garage is trying it's best to RTE. But it was a great find in the city, the largest and best garage we looked at...
