    Rebuilding old Craftsman air ratchet

    So I did a search and didn't find anything in the past 2 years so rather than necroposting I figured I'd start another thread. I was out on my buddy's farm and he'd mentioned before he had an air ratchet he wanted me to get working so I took it with me and got it opened up today. The ratchet end...

    So what happened to Orbis

    I've bought Orbis pliers off amazon before and they had a huge selection. I go to buy another pair of circlip pliers and all I get searching for "orbis circlip" are a bunch that look identical to Orbis but say FACTOR and list Factor 75 as the manufacturer. Searching via google brings up Orbis...

    Circular saw arbor shim?

    So I've found an old SkilSaw 534 in the garage. It being bladeless I grabbed a 6.5" Plywood/OSB blade for it while out and about. I get home to find out the blade is made to fit a 5/8" arbor but the saw has a 1/2" arbor. Looking around online the vast majority of blades made for 1/2" arbors are...

    Wood sheds

    Since I'm not a fan of my parents wood storage system of some dimensional lumber on the ground with the wood on top and a tarp tossed over it in winter I started poking around the net. I found plans for a "modular wood shed" from the EPA's Burn Wise program (whatever that is)...
