Hoping someone here knows something I don’t. I got a used gravely walk behind a year ago, cuts great, ran like a top. Till it seized. Turns out it leaked oil pretty bad the last few cuts. Tried to save it and it’s toasted, so I need a replacement engine. The original is a Kawasaki fs481v...

I'm starting my bookshelves in the office today. 12" deep cabinets on the bottom, 1x14 on top (I think) that can be cut down a little on top of those cabinets, 12" shelves on top of that. I wanted to have 3 sections, each 36" long, but no backer. I have the mind to use furing strips vertically...

Nearing the final steps of get a proper basin in. Couple questions to round it off though. I’m heading out to get the filter fabric. Should I grab a bag of concrete or will the hydrolic cement I already have suffice if I mix it thick? Holes in the bottom or no? I figure they can’t hurt. And...

I have a top box on my bike held in by 4 6-10 Allen head bolts. I want the ability to remove the box without tool, using a knobbed screw. Something with a bit more leverage than a thumb screw. Tractor supply was easy for a larger bolt needed for the gold wing, these two are difficult to find...

I will be painting my garage walls, all block, and have to figure how I can add a stripe, and bottom half grey of course. I can't think of a way to paint those surfaces without all sorts of blead through. Maybe spraying? I have the color I want in spray already, but I don't imagine that will lay...

I've finally sorted what I want to do for the ceiling in my little garage. Couple different constraints mean I'm hanging some kind of panel. I was thinking soffit panels but that is mighty expensive. I've settled on corrugated (roofing) sheets. I can grab them from home depot or such at $50 a...

Finally closed on the new house, a week ago. As it always goes when first moving, the garage is chock full of stuff. Most of it isn't tools. The ceiling is low, as is the trend in this area, but this time I don't have a center support beam that's ready to smack me in the head if I'm not careful...

Hey all. Long story, she got the house, but I got paid for my time. I'm looking at new houses I'm a terrible market, but it's not as bad as I first thought. Looking at a few houses and one of the more promising ones has a car port attached to the house. Roof continues on and thats the car...

Been lurking for so long, I figure it's high time I get my garage up here. Been a long time coming, the wife and I finally purchased a house last november. The house itself is certainly a project, but it has a garage! I've spend many a weekend and evening working on gravel driveways, in the...
