Hi, So i have my garage kitted out in Craftsman Premium Heavy Duty Cabinets. These are excellent cabinets, namely because they have shelving inside the doors, allowing you to put all your jars, sprays etc in the doors easy to reach and leaving the shelves free. Anyway i have my entire garage...

So after a year of pondering on the subject, i finally dipped my hand in my pocket and got my door professionally insulated. I was going to do it myself, but the cost of materials, and wanting it to look pro, i decided to let the people that installed the doors in the first place to carry out...

So on Sunday, I had to do the first DIY oil change on my wife's VW Tiguan 2012 SEL. 35k, owned since new.. but VW always done previous oil changes as part of their 'free' maintenance agreement, at the time we bought the SUV. So this one was the first time i was doing it. But man, that oil...

Hi fellas, I'm about to pull the trigger on a no-mar tire changing station. HOWEVER i want this thing to be only assembled as and when i need it.. Like maybe once a yr. I'd like to be able to pull it down from the attic, and bolt it into the ground, and when i'm done, unbolt it, disassemble...

Need to get my new HF 34 degree nailer working. Its not shooting anything. I have the 15g collation angled 34 degree nails. The gun is a 34 degrees angle finish nailed which shoots 1-1/3" to 2 -1/2" long finish nails. Know its not the compressor, as i've tested two compressors at 100psi...

Which grease / spray / lube have you guys had the most success with, when greasing the rails of your tool chests ?

Can someone explain which WD40 would be best to protect my hand tools from loosing their finish? I recently picked up a few quality Knipex pliers. (along with all my other hand tools such as my polished chrome wrenches and what not) And well, i'd like to keep them from loosing their appearance...

I live in SW Florida. Which basically means my garage gets hot for a good 45weeks of the yr. Even today, where the temps only hit 78 with low humidity, tonight its a little too warm in my garage. Making matters worse, My garage doors are south facing, so the sun beats on them during the day...

What quick and effective methods could i apply to do a moisture test on my concrete that I'll be grinding this weekend ? I don't want to wait the 48hrs with plastic duck taped down to see if any rises. I know some say you can do it in 16hrs... But anyway, I should have all my grinding and...

Just spoke to Taylor Rental, regarding renting one of their concrete grinders. Topic of discussion was what to do about dust... He said, rent an Air Scrubber, HEPA500, which will apparently **** up the dust while you work. No-one seems to rent a concrete grinder that has a shroud and suction...

Want to replace the plastic **** i have. Do not need a bench, just decent quality self standing steel or MDF. Who makes good value ones at variable widths ?

For those of you who ground your floor back to concrete, what tool did you hire and from where? Also did you do it wet or dry? Any advantages or disadvantages to either wet or dry. I went to Home Depot, and the tool they're telling me to use is this. Which doesn't have a vacuum attachment...

You may of seen my post last week, asking advice of going with garage floor tiles in Sunny SW Florida. I think i'm going to settle for a metallic epoxy finish, as that's my favored look that i'm looking for. Plus it'll sweep up nicely, and that's important to me.. As it stands i have an ugly...

So, i know why you 'should' drain your compressor, to get the water out of it. and if you don't it could start to rust the compressor's innards. But what about those of us that have large 30gal compressors ? Is there any other option? Seems such as waste of energy, to drain out 30gallons...

So cutting a long story short, i was sold the wrong paint at lowes 4yrs ago to paint my garage floor after etching it with acid and a week of not driving on it. The paint immediately pulled it up the first day i had wet tires. Got my money back from Lowes, but 4 yrs on and with lots of it now...

Bought my home 4yrs ago from new & I went to Lowes and asked what paint did I need to buy to paint my garage floor. They sold me a few tins of garage paint, and something else (i think it was an acid type product) to etch the floor as a pre-requesite. So anyway, took the day off, scrubbed the...
