Hello all, I'm just about finished with wiring my pole building so it's time to start thinking about insulation. Here is my plan, note I've never done anything like this before. Use 2" foam board in between the 2x4's that the sheet metal is screwed into. Then use 2x4's to "frame out" away...

Hello everyone! After 6 years of owning my home, I have started to build my dream garage. I had the backyard graded where an above ground pool used to be, removed 2 trees and had shale brought in for a base for the building. I went with a 30'X32' pole building from Pioneer Pole Buildings. I...

Hello all, I'm building my garage this summer and I'd like to get a few opinions. I have attached a picture of the invoice for the pole building. In addition to that, I'm having a contractor level the site, put in a stone driveway about 100ft long, remove a 40ft tall tree and do the...

Hello all, What are some motorcycle tools that you are very happy with and/or consider "must haves"? I'm looking to expand my collection. Thanks!

Hello all, I am coming to you out of frustration. I have 2 13mm Gearwrench sockets that I cracked using a 3/8 Snap-On ratchet while removing head bolts. I almost always buy Snap-On but, I bought this set for the junkyard as it had a nice carrying case and a supposed lifetime warranty. This...

Hello everyone, I am looking for a high quality metric set of t-handle allen wrenches. I do a lot of work on motorcycles and they primarily use allen screws. I have a crappy Harbor Freight set right now and I cannot believe I haven't stripped out a screw or snapped the tool yet. Anyway...

I just sent an email to HJE where I purchased my ratchet to see if I can either have mine repaired or replaced. I purchased this ratchet from HJE about 5 months ago and haven't really used it until recently. It's absolutely horrendous. The teeth jam and don't let the unit ratchet. The...

Hello all, Picked up this little box/cart on Craigslist the other day. Paid $100. Guy claims it's a Cornwell. For the life of me I cannot find a stamping/logo/label anywhere on it. Do you think it is a legitimate Cornwell? Thanks, -Brian

Hello all, I have a few regular sized impact guns, 2 IR's and a Snap-On, but I am looking for a stubby to get to those hard to reach places. I have watched many tool reviews (looking at you Real Tool Reviews YouTube) and am torn between the Aircat 1056-XL and the M7 stubby. I am leaning...

I seem to have a problem keeping a decent set of drill bits around. All the ones I use either snap way too easily or end up dulling very quickly. I have used Snap-On, Craftsman, Dewalt, and a few others. So far the Dewalt were the best but were prone to snapping. I drill into steel so I am...

Hello all, I am looking at doing some home powder coating jobs using my home oven as my powder coating oven. I figure the biggest things I would be doing would be my motorcycle wheels. I am looking for suggestions on a good powder coating gun. I have read decent reviews on the Eastwood Dual...

Stumbled upon these wrenches today, I bought the 5pc 12pt SAE ratcheting wrench set and 6pc metric open end wrench set, came to around $25 shipped. Hard to beat that. Figure I would pass it along to you guys. http://www.gearwrench.com/hot-deals

Hello all! New guy here. I found this forum while looking up information on a jack that I rescued from the scrap bin. I work for a diesel service center as a parts manager and we recently moved buildings and my mechanic had mentioned that there was a jack laying around that they never used...
