    Skid steer help

    Just bought a Case 1840. I need new glass for the door. I've spent about an hour trying to find a place online that sells them. Anybody know of a place online? Either that or I'll end up paying bloated dealer prices.

    There's a local online auction with these tools as some of the lots. The description for the lots is vague at best and there's no one to call to ask. I see some of the sockets are craftsmans. But can anyone tell just by looking at them what the breaker bars and ratchets are? Lot 1...

    What is the proper way of keeping rechargeable batteries for powertools? I have all DeWalt tools in both 14v and 18v. Seems like they don't hold a charge long while in use and also go dead while not in use. The 18V are almost new and they do it too. Is ok to just leave them on the...

    What the hell is it in laymans terms? I've been looking at some metal lathes and some have three phase motors. Does this mean I have to switch motors to be able to run them on 110??
