    Hanging a mini split on aluminum siding

    As the title suggests, I'm considering installing a mini split in my garage. The condenser would need to be mounted on the wall and I have aluminum siding. I'm not too savvy with siding work, obviously it would need to be lagged to studs but I'm worried about crushing the siding. Does anyone...

    Forked adjustable pry bars - anyone using them?

    I saw these in the cornwell monthly flyer, considering ordering a set if I can find a dealer to buy from. Interested if anyone has used them or knows of a similar off brand set that's cheaper or easier to obtain? http://corporate.cornwelltools.com/Publications/February2021/mobile/index.html

    Arcan low profile jack

    I noticed this deal on an Arcan XL2T for $153 from my home depot notifications. Not a bad price according to 3camels and compared to amazon. Worth an upgrade from my daytona or similar to the daytona low profile? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Arcan-2-Ton-Low-Profile-Service-Jack-XL2T/308313511

Does anyone have first hand experience with these? Are they durable and long...

    Stubby flex spline drive wrenches

    I've been looking to add some stubby flex spline drive wrenches to my metric drawer. The spline drive is important because i need them to work on torx fasteners too. I've been unable to find a nice affordable set... Under $75 would be my happy point. Many sets are discontinued, anyone know of a...

    Hey guys - I had a successful day of acquiring at a sale but picked up all kinds of items that I am struggling to identify. Here's one to start - glass rods, tapered at the ends, about 24 inches long. They look like level indicator glass but who knows? Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

    New to me box, is it a Vidmar?

    Hey guys, I picked this up off of Craigslist today with the intent of painting it to match the work bench I restored last year. If you can look past the graffiti it is actually dent free. I'm debating cutting off the cantilever part of the top when I clean it up or removing it all together...

    My what is it machine tooling

    I was at a sale today and picked up some stuff in box lots that are unidentifiable to me... any help is appreciated. I believe two of these items to be knurling tools but they do not look standard. I am not sure how the tap jig would be used either, what do you guys think?

    Another Work Bench Thread

    I wanted to share a project that I have been working on for quite some time. I acquired this Kewaunee Sturdilite work bench last fall on craigslist. The buyer had apparently purchased a number of them from a surplus auction and this was the best looking one he had left with the top shelf. It...

    Please help me ID this vise

    Today I picked up a new vise. It is unique to me in that it is meant to thread onto a pipe for mounting. It appears to be in good shape although I'm unsure if the C-channel is original design because it appears to be cleanly welded on. Anyway, there are no markings on it that I can see. It's...

    Prentiss 181

    Fellow GJers, I wanted to share my latest find. I was at a warehouse auction and missed out on some larger vises when this one came up. It was being used on a drill press and I didn't have much opportunity to inspect it, but for $8 I was in! It looks like an unoriginal base, a bolt to tighten...

    My first anvil

    Hey guys, Today I picked up my first anvil at an estate sale. It is a Vulcan 45 with what appears to be a factory stand. It was the reason I decided to check out the sale 45 minutes away so I stuck in the bidding a little longer than I probably should have... From what I gather here $2/lb is a...
