Hey all. For years I’ve always soldered and heat shrunk with adhesive any 12v connection I’ve made. 5v, 12v, whatever. Anyways, as I’ve gotten older and time hasn’t been on my side day to day I’ve grown to crimp connections with heat shrink adhesive sleeves. I bought a crimping set from Amazon...

Hey all. The tool is MANY years old so before I go and purchase a $550 upgrade card for the software again... does anybody have any recommendations for an AS capable or more capable tool that doesn't cost a fortune? I hooked up to a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee and it wouldn't let me scan without a...

Trying to protect two pieces of anodized aluminum from rubbing on each other. I can fit a piece of electrical tape between the two pieces but that’s as thick as tolerances will allow. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what would work for longevity?

Hey guys. My MS906TS battery doesn't last much longer than 10 minutes these days even after a "full charge". Is there a recommended battery brand or website for these tools for longevity or should I just pick based off of price and shipping speed on Amazon and call it a day? Thanks!

Hey guys. I currently have an older pancake compressor which I’d like to replace. My tool room is more of a man cave but I do some work in there. I mainly run an air gun of some sort for most of my work but do have nailers, tire inflators, etc. I found this metabo...

Hey guys. Looking to really clean out the bore that the slide pins go in. Previous owner didn’t do a great job on the brakes. I tried brake cleaner and a wire brush but it’s not really touching all the grime and whatever else I can’t see in it. Plus, I think they mixed grease with silicone… Any...

Trying to cut plexiglass with a scroll saw. Any pinned blade recommendations? Tried jig saw with plexiglass blades but it bound up. Used water but it got difficult to do curved cuts and such. I’ve watched many people cut plexiglass with a jigsaw and no water. Scroll saw should be easy but I’m...

My two year old son is obsessed with cars, motorcycles and HORNS. He always asks for “beep beep” so I figure, let’s put one in his cozy coupe. For those who don’t know, it’s the little red and yellow car I’m sure you’ve all seen kids footing around in. I found a horn kit as you’d use on a...

Hey guys. I converted my garage to a “craft room” for my lady. She uses laser engravers/cutters and is currently using an undersized fume extractor. It takes up room on the bench top and does a poor job of extraction. I’d like to run a flame resistant hose from her bench top up through the...

Does anybody know of any kits or multiple kits that would allow me to replace a fuse with a breaker type fuse for diagnostic purposes? Mini low profile, mini, standard and maybe maxi and micro, though I don’t come across them as often. Maxi I usually see/use on plow setups and such and I’ve...

Hey guys. I’m interested in purchasing a thermal imager for looking into my breaker panel, outlets around the house, door seals, insulation, etc but unsure where to look or what’s good for the money. I wouldn’t consider myself a “DIY” but I’m also not using it everyday professionally. Any...

Hey guys. I'm looking to possibly pick up the 16" saw from milwaukee for when I don't want to bring out my husqvarna. Most of my uses would be in the woods where I hunt and backyard stuff. Not so worried about the back yard as I have tons of batteries at my disposal but hauling out 12ah...

Building a room in the garage. Sheet rock, framing and everything else is done. Onto the floor now. In my infinite wisdom, I built a wall overtop part of the concrete slab. So raising it with poly is out of the question. What I did to combat the unevenness is I built a riser of sorts out of...

I know this isn’t the best diagram but I’m trying to figure out where I went wrong… Trying to install two new three way switches. One is a Lutron dimmer with a red w/ white stripe, red, black and white. The other switch is your average three way. One black screw and two gold. I had it hooked up...
