Wanted one my entire life, and I’m going to get one. There’s a plethora of stuff on line, but I want safety, quality and personal experience if I may. I have a 40 x 60 Pole Barn pictured. It has 6” concrete floor, built circa 2006. Without modifications, I’m limited to sliding doors due to...

Hi, Previous owner added a Patio and the gap between it and house was filled with some type of Sealant which is failing. I removed the deterioration section and found no Backer-Rod per se. It appears anything within reach was shoved into the gap and an unknown type of Sealant applied. I...

Hi, I have a Trane Heat Pump System. Today, we noticed the increased temperature, and I discovered the Outside Compressor/Fan unit had stopped working. The Air Handlers were still pumping air out of the vents - albeit hot. I had this problem before and learned to keep spare Capacitors on...

Hi, I have a new HF Badlands 12000# winch on my trailer. Wired it up, exactly like the instructions, rechecked wiring and all connections. Below is a picture of the Solenoid inside Control Box Everything is tight. But winch does nothing with either the Tendered Control or the Wireless Remote...

Continuing my education of Well Pumps… Advertising states these are the “bomb” to protect a Well Pump. That said: 1)Does anyone have a Pump Saver? 2)Are they worth the cost? 3)How difficult are they to install? [I’ve done 3 new power panels in renovations.) Any advise would be...

1)Trying to determine age of used YJ 93560 pump I purchased. I know these have been in production for quite some. I could not find any date stamp on mine. However, I have noticed in searching for one the serial numbers are proceeded by a single Capital Letter. For example: P 301014; Q 310954...

Hi, After thought Patios were added to the house I (the bank) bought. The self-leveling sealer has started to fail and needs replaced. There are some sloppy spots where the sealer run onto (settled) outside of the gap and onto the patio that needs removed. Q1. How do I remove the damaged and...

Is there a company that specializes in labels for tool boxes? I prefer magnetic labels that stay-on until removed and also give me the freedom to change contents of draws without a can of Acetone to remove residue of tape. Tired of **** falling off when a drawer is opened. Every product on...

Hi, Cleaning up and found this tool. Undoubtedly a product of my pack-rat habit over the years. It has an “UL” and “41PMA” inscribed on it, if that helps. I was going to ask my wife but already know her answer. Thanks Leaky

I picked up a nice 72” x 28” x 36” HD table today. Plan was to make it a dedicated table for metal work, grinding, welding etc. It was painted, showed some rust, good and heavy, and looked like a good candidate. Naturally, after getting the treasure home I noticed some peeled paint and...

I want to start using gas and need advice please. Local salesman says I can lease(3 yrs) a 100 CF bottle filled for circa $200. Another shop lets you buy an 80 CF bottle outright “empty” for $245. To my surprise the Salesman with 80CF bottle said most people buy their own bottles. I’ve seen...

Hi, I have 40x60x14 Pole Barn that has 5/6 leaks in the roof. Best I can tell, it was built in 2006, though that disputable since the siding was put up with Ring Shank Nails which I'm told has not been practiced in years. It came with my place, bought in 2009. The roof does have 1-3/4" gasketed...

Hello, I have small 20A on-off-on switch that needs to reside in my engine compartment. The switch controls an Emergency Back-up system modification which hopefully will never need to be used. Hence, it does not need to be in the Cab nor assessable. My desire is to place it in the smallest...
