    Pocket Gophers got me!

    They cut my cat5 to my barn. I killed him for it though. Had an electrician come out to give me an estimate on running new cat5 from the house to the barn. about 270ft. He quoted me 2800.00. Seems a bit high to me. What yall think?

    Cheaper socket/ impact set, but pretty nice.

    I was getting tired of my sockets being all over the place so I decided to resolve that problem in the new garage. I looked at suppliers like Snapon and Matco but I really can’t justify that sort of money since I am just a normal guy and not a professional mechanic. I went with Gearwrench for...

To my surprise, the Chest Top and Bottom where listed at 700.00. I saved it to my cart. It was confusing...

    Hello from Minnesota, A couple years ago, I had my concrete polished. It came out fantastic but it's shine is not like it used to be. Besides mopping periodically, what would be a good technique for creating a high gloss shine, like it had when new? The floor is in great condition still so...

    1st 18 months of ownership.

    Finished build October, 2019 and already so many great memories have been had. My only regret is I wish I would of built it sooner. I would come here for years, read all the threads and think, "These guys have it made, well...someday". If some of you are planning to build someday, why not...

    Cheap tear down cart from Amazon

    I picked up this cheap tear down cart from Amazon. Very pleased. I like the price and the build quality is actually pretty darn good. I like to do a lot of detailing and this will be perfect for that. Anyway if anyone is looking for something similar, I would recommend it. OEM Tools.

    Ceiling Fan

    So, I will be putting in heat for my 40X40x16, fully insulated walls and ceiling. I decided to go with a Forced Air Heating LP Unit.
