So I will be running 100a service out to my workshop that is 20x20, I will have separate circuits for the heater, the air compressor, and a 220v for my welder. But I was thinking 3-4 15a outlets per the 3 walls, and 2 on the wall with the door. Does this sound about right?

Ok so i have a 40+yr old Kennedy tool box that i will be removing the drawers on to clean it up and lube the slides, what is the best way to lube the friction slides? And what brand of lubricant do you recommend?

Ok so in my 20x20 shop. there is a loft, however its sketchy, the floor is supported only by 2x4's which are at the top of the wall. I am wondering if i can remove the deck, and raise or add truss supports further up thus increasing the working height in the shop too. In theory i want to remove...

I am on the hunt for a new plier set, really don't want to buy individual ones if i don't have it. I keep finding the "extreme leverage" type of plier and am leery. What do you guys use daily, that would cost under $150 for a set?

Well I blew up the engine in my free to me Toro ccr 3650,I am more or less curious, if it's worth me replacing the engine? My wife says no. But I found a short block on ebay for $ 108. But I don't really know small engines.

So I have had this Kennedy Tool Box for at least 20yrs now, I got it from my now ex-father in law. I know it's one of their older boxes I have the lower and mid-boxes, I need a new lock set for the lower and would love to update the drawer slides if possible. The bottom chest is a 277-9187, and...

So I had an electrician come out today for a quote on putting in the sub-panel for my garage. I was blown away by what he had said. 10k total cost, because they would have to update the main panel to 200A to even support the sub. I have read and have been told by other electricians that a 100A...

As the title states, I am getting ready to re-wire my whole garage, it will have a 100A sub panel w/ 9 15a outlets, a 20a for my lights, and 2 20a outlets for a 135a/120v welder. My air compressor is 13.5a/120v, so I don't need anything special for it. But what gauge wire for a 50a 240v heater...

Hey guys, I need to ask the collective minds here for a favor. I don't have the engine hoist here at the house to take the measurements, but I need the mounting dimensions for the front leg caster wheel. My hoist is currently about 100 mi away and requires a replacement wheel(caster) and I can...

As the title states, I need new solder and was thinking 60/40 rosen core but would like GJ's input also. I mostly will be doing engine harnesses, I/P harnesses and other sub harnesses, nothing that will be taking a ton of amperage most would be 30-40a(Fuel pump or Fan)

Well I am going to be doing a lot more wiring harnesses coming up and I need the best assortment of depinning tools. I have found this one on Amazon but am unsure of it. What do you guys recommend? Looking to stay under $100 for a set and it has to have mainly GM based tools as that is what I...

Hey Guys/Gals, I joined up following a recommendation from a Chevy truck forum that I am apart of. I currently have a 1.5 car garage which is plenty big enough for my regular cab long bed Chevy and me to still be able to work comfortably in. I however will be looking for ideas on a rewire and...
