    Hot Tub Breaker Tripping….

    Hot tub breaker tripping recently. I am suspecting heater element going out or bad breaker. Seems strange that they just put in a smart meter a few weeks back, and it’s been tripping since then. Any thoughts on that possibility?

    Too Many Screwdrivers?

    Moving one toolbox to another, and realized I have WAY too many screwdrivers. Anyone else have this issue? (probably a stupid question, lol) Not like I've bought any in the past 5 years, but when does one need to stop? They're filling up their own drawer in my CMAN toolbox.

    Thinking of getting a couple of these for the shop, to get rid of one of my work benches and make some more room.

    Mini Split Not Cooling...Thoughts?
