Echo PB600 My Echo PB-600 was running crappy for it's first fall use. Bought a new plug and was looking for the gap in the manual when the original sales receipt fell out. 20 years old on Sunday. Wow. And the new plug did the job. Works great. I've only had that thing serviced once in the...

Probably 7 years ago we tore down a shed on the back of our property. It had extensive ant and mouse and probably termite damage. This spring, we had guests staying in our basement. Winged termites showed up in the basement enmass. Days later we had a professional install bait stations around...

I have 4 walls complete on my transition of pavilion to half a shed. I left a 6 ft opening for the door (74 inches). Header is 80 on the left side and 79 1/2 on the right. Since it is sitting directly on concrete, I have concerns. BIL was going to give me some not so good looking french doors...

I have an older Craftsman 1 1/2 hp circular saw. Model 315.10910. How would that compare to today's circular saws which are rated in amps? I've seen conversion charts but how would I know the motors efficiency?
