I noticed recently that there have been a few threads that have veered off track enough that someone needs to step in and clean them up. On a recent one (that I happened to report on), one of the mods mentioned staying on track, avoiding personal insults, etc. I left a "Like" thumbs up, as a way...

Upcoming Colorado Garage Get-Together! There is a group of us who regularly alert others to great deals, help "rucker" purchases up and down the Front Range, and generally are interested in tools, (mostly vintage) and the cool projects we can do with them. We also try to get together a few times...

Edit: All issues are pending I have several different issues available for sale. Shipping is via buyers choice, and is not included in the price. Please let me know which ones gou are interested in, and a zip code for shipping. Media mail is probably the cheapest, but does not include tracking...

Edit: Several books are pending, see strikethrus below. I have several different titles available for sale. Shipping is via buyers choice, and is not included in the price. Please let me know which titles you are interested in, and a zip code for shipping. Media mail is probably the cheapest...

Wondering if anyone has experience with the newer CM 20V tools that are punching above their weight class. Backstory, I got 2x of the "free" 3.0Ah batteries and $50 coupons from the recent battery swap event, and not sure exactly what to grab. I was thinking of some "stand-alone" tools, so I...

Wondering if there is a way to search for posts I have made and attached a picture to. Was going to cross-post something to another forum, but cant find the pic I took right now. Tried looking at "Your Posts", but didn't seem like a way to narrow it down. Tried "Your Media" but it doesn't seem...

Normally browse on my phone, but was on the desktop and went to the main home screen. Got a CSS error, and the front page posts don't look right. Firefox, Win 11 here. Not sure if there are changes going on with the new edits for language and avatar screening (I was signed in when it happened)...

I was talking with my wife about adding one of these as I clean out and re-space breakers (we had electric baseboard previously, so lots of unused breakers now and the baseboards also caused a ton of tandems to be installed to make things fit). Plan is to eliminate as many tandems as possible...

Let me start out by saying: First World problem. Haven't had this come up before, so wondering if it is possible. I made a joking post in a thread (Sears Deals), and apparently lots of people agreed with me (to the tune of about 45 Like/Love/Haha in under 24 hrs). Which is great, except the...

I have a 1/2HP Crowntop Commercial that I need to re-home. Both guards are there (last pic), light works, quench tray, etc. Looking to find someone local-ish hopefully, or willing to work with Ruckers. Not interested in shipping it at this time. Asking $50 for it (listed elsewhere for a bit...

Edit: I don't need one, asked Mods to move OP. Guess my post was left behind. Probably better in the Want to Buy section than here...

Just posted something to the Classifieds, and it tried to make me check if it was already being discussed. Even if did have threads on the machine, wouldn't we want all FS stuff in the Classifieds, and not bumping discussion threads about it? Not sure if there is a way to turn it off for just...

Located in SE Denver. Works well, just trying to downsize. From what I can tell, this specific model isn't uploaded to the Mothership, so guessing it was a fairly unique variant of their more normal saws. The decal on the belt guard is mostly intact, which allowed me to ID it as the B variant...

I am sure there is an easy solution to this, but having trouble getting the search to cooperate. Recently picked up a static phase converter, and it had this thrown in. The phase converter itself will be easy enough to wire (2 hots in, 3 out). Wanting to figure out a way to add the contactor...

Anyone else notice the vintage stack? Looks like a 10d top, and a 3d bottom. Seems like the took the handles off, so they could more easily remove the badges. Spotted @ 17:45 into the episode, in the Ugnout's garage/workspace. Sorry for the lower res pic, took a cell phone shot of it paused...

Looking to see if anyone has a metal socket box/tray, for a Heritage 3/8 set. I have all the sockets and Ell handle to fill it, but would like to get it in the correct box, vs the random box it is in. Thanks! Box no is from the 58 catalog, any box designed to fit these would work. Added a...

I have a set of collets that came in a pile.of stuff, and no luck trying to identify them. Top flat of cone is about 3/4" across, bottom of cone is 1" across, cone is about 13/16 with last 1/8" vertical (no taper). The ones I have run from 3/8-3/4, by 32, with two 64s in as well (pic is missing...

Just looking for a quick verification. Picked up a 5hp 1ph motor, with a bank of capacitors. Wasn't able to see it run before I bought it. Trying to make sure everything is hooked up correctly before I smoke something by accident. Wiring diagram is not helpful for this. All it lists are where...

Picked up a Snap On mid-rise scissor lift (either a EELR300A, or a 6000A) a bit ago, owner said it needed work. First discovered the motor/pump connection was missing, replaced coupler (explains why it wasn't working before). Below is how I got to this point. Right now, the lift is 90+% up...

On one of the 3d printing/designing threads someone started, I mentioned I teach this to middle schoolers. Several people expressed an interest in the files I have put together, so I decided to make a separate thread, talking specifically about 3D CAD, and more specifically OnShape. Enjoy! Here...
