    Shop your way $25 email

    So I got an email saying if I spend $25 at Home Depot I can get $25 in points. I know that I can only use those points at Sears but how do I get my points by buying from home depot? I could really stand to take advantage of this as I plan to buy some things for the new house anyways.

    This looks pretty cool and like it might be decent. What do you all think? Is there better garage storage solutions out there for the same money or is this pretty good? http://tools.woot.com/?ref=gh_tg_5

    Mini split install questions/suggestions

    I have pretty much decided on a MrCool DIY 2 ton ductless heat pump setup for my garage area. My original plan was to purchase this in about a year so I had the electrician do a run with 10/3 and install a dedicated 30 amp breaker for the mini split. I originally thought I would just run the...

    Need cutting torch info and recommendations

    So I was out today buying some tools at a garage sale and this guy asks me if I want this acetylene torch and bottle. I've been wanting a cutting torch for a bit because I do a lot of work on old 3 wheelers and such and sometimes you need to cut through a frame or a swingarm or axle and...

    Tooltopia discount

    I'm looking to buy several things and can't find any way to get a discount code. Signing up for email didn't work and leaving things in my cart hasn't worked either. Does anyone have a discount code or know of a place I can find one or a way to get one? Thanks in advance.

    New slab is already cracking- am I too picky?

    So my 24'x44' slab was poured a few days ago. They used compacted gravel, a vapor barrier, rebar in the foundation block, and keyway expansion joints in lieu of saw cuts. It looked pretty good but I'm very picky and kind of a perfectionist. I'm also not a concrete guy so I don't know when/if...

    Mini Split or framed in window unit for heat and AC

    24x44 electrical layout recommendations

    Long story short is I'm building a 24x44 shop with a 3BR/2BA living area above it. My builder HIGHLY underestimated my needs for lighting in the garage and I had to completely revamp my plans and I'm having to pay the electrician to run the wire/boxes and hang all those lights. While I'm...

    Yes another lighting/electrical help thread

    So we are hopefully breaking ground on my new place this week and I'm trying to get my ducks in a row. First thing I must state is that the budget is stretched as far as it can possibly stretch so there are some things that I just will NOT be able to do. That being said, I want to make sure...

    Snap On CT6850 used purchase price?

    I'm looking to invest some cash in a cordless impact and found one of these for sale locally. It comes with 1 battery and the charger and the guy says it was used very little. What would be a really good deal for this thing since an extra battery will probably run me $100.

    24x44 with 3br/2ba on top

    So I'm here to share my eventual build with you all and get some ideas from all the great builds already done. What I'm doing will be very small in comparison to what some of you have done but it is about all I can manage on my meager teacher salary. It will be nice and something I've always...
