    Tombstone welder worth it?

    I already have a Lincoln square Wave 200 tig welder that can also do DC positive and negative stick welding up to 170 amps. Wondering whether there is any sense in considering a tombstone welder that can do both AC and DC welding? Also have a Miller 211 that gets a lot of use. A lot of general...

    Roll-Off Truck on Driveway

    I have about 45 yards to remove from my backyard in order to prepare for the garage foundation. It would be a easier to have the 10-yard roll-off bins dropped in my backyard rather than the street. Do you think it would be safe to have the truck on my relatively new concrete driveway? Also...

    Good toolbox drawer liner option

    I see a lot of posts on here about drawer liners. I thought I would share the stuff I found after quite a bit of searching. It is called ECORE QT4005 Sound Control. It’s meant to go under wood floors so I bought it at a local flooring place off the shelf. What I like: - 5mm (a little more than...

    Knipex at Mobile Distributor Supply

    Mobile Distributor Supply seems to be having a deal on all Knipex tools. The prices were so good that I was questioning the legitimacy of the site itself, but it appears that some people here use them all the time. I picked up some mini bolt cutters and wire rope cutters. Both of them were...

    Question About Structure and Code for Detached Garage

    My city has a code that does not allow a detached structure to be more than 30% the main property size. You are, however, allowed to put more than 1 structure up so long as they have a minimum of 6' between them. So this got me thinking about what this could look like. Would I be able to...

    Joist Air Nailer for Concealed Wood Connectors

    Hi Everyone, Have any of you had experience using a joist nail gun for metal connectors? Are any of them narrow enough to fit into a 'concealed' hanger made by Simpson? I am looking to hang 4x8s, so the hanger will be wider than most... Recommendation on brand/model? Thanks!

    Gearwrench on Napa Online

    Hey Guys - I found that NAPA has an 8-pc Gearwrench reversable metric wrench set (plus bonus tape measure) on sale for $10 if you reserve online and then pick it up in store. I assume that means your store has to have them in stock, but it’s 1/3 the cost so worth it. $1.25 per wrench. As is...

    How to Remove RotaBroach Bit

    I'm wondering how you guys remove a rotabroach bit from the shank? I used one of the larger bits the other day and had a hell of a time trying to get the bit back off again. I used the spacer nut like you are supposed to. I ended up having to use a pair of channellocks in a rag to get it off...

    Mount Wilton with Lugnuts

    Just thought I would share my method of mounting up my new Wilton 1755 vise. The vise calls for a 5/8" bolt to mount to the workbench. I happened to have some old flange style lugnuts sitting around that have a 5/8" flange, so I bought some 1/2-20 bolts from the hardware store and ran them...
