I picked up a Walker floor Jack a several years back with the hope of restoring it, but I just have way too much going on and want to get it somewhere it will see some love. Haven’t looked at the tag in a while but pretty sure it’s a 784e. Doesn’t currently work but all parts look to be there...

I’m looking at the Champion 8500w dual fuel or a DuroMax dual fuel that’s rated a little higher. Would like peoples’thoughts, opinions, personal experiences etc. First consideration is where it is made. Don’t want anything but USA made, and I believe these two brands are U.S. made. Let me know...

I bought a makita 3/8 impact driver several years ago and only used it a few times because the friction/hog ring doesn’t hold any sockets in place. Life got busy and I haven’t had much need or opportunity to use it. Now that I’m wanting to use it again I’d like to solve the issue. I haven’t used...

Assuming a light switch has not been removed and intentionally turned upside down, is there a way for it to fail and start working in reverse? I’ve owned my house for 7 years and this switch has never been removed. For as long as it’s been there down is the off position, and up controls an...

Thankfully it was successful, though I would have rather not had to mess with it. A little story of my adventure. I have a 24 year old Evcon BGU furnace and Friday night, the coldest night of winter so far, of course, it started acting up. The blower motor wouldn't come on in the correct...

My house was built in 1994 and The fan in my living room has probably been been there since new or almost as long. As I update other features of my home, (lighting, floors, counters, furniture etc. it just looks more out of place and dated. I don't want to replace it though because it blows more...

Like the title says. When I update a thread I'd like to make the thread title show it has been updated. I tried hitting edit in my post and then going advanced. I can make it change withing the thread, but it doesn't show in the forum where you can actually click on the title of the thread.

Bought My First Vise. Needs Resto of Course! (UPDATED W/Pics) Right about the time I joined GJ I had been searching my first ever bench vise. I'm a fairly new homeowner and just built my bench last year. My only vise requirement was that it had to be U.S. made. I wanted a nice new one but was...

Hey all. I just joined up and thought I'd post a few pics. I read about GJ last week on an automotive forum that I frequent, and decided to check it out. It's an awesome place with a ton of good info. Although, my 21x18 pales in comparison to most of the shops on here. Everyone's working on...
