    Mower Purchase/Zero Turn and Stander Decision

    I recently purchased a zero-turn mower. I have an acre lot, but the grass area is around 10,000 SF. I found the 21" walk-behind was taking too long and to many passes. After doing a ton of research, I went with a Scag Liberty Z, with a 36" deck. I would have gone with a larger deck, but I...

    Mowing your own yard and do you use gas or electric lawn equipment?

    How many of you mow you own yards? I bought all the lawn equipment and did mine for the first time yesterday and it took 2.75 hours. I had not mowed a lawn since 1980 and we have a large yard. We are on an acre lot and I used a Honda walk behind self-propelled mower. I decided to do it...

    Snap-On Sockets

    Are Snap-On sockets worth the money? I know they are quality and made in USA, but $234 for a set of SAE shallow 6-point sockets is pretty steep. That is 9-10 times what I paid for a set of DeWalt sockets. I have some DeWalt, GearWrench, SK and one set of Snap-On. When I look inside at the...

    New Toolbox

    I have outgrown the 52" heavy duty Husky box and added on the 31" heavy duty box next to it (got it today). Both have ball bearing drawers and soft close. Great boxes for the money. I like that I can use the top of the new box for workspace. The top opens up and has storage under it that...

    Dewalt 20V Cut Off Tool

    Does anyone have a Dewalt 20V cut off tool? I was wondering if this would be a worthy addition to the power tool collection when I already have two angle grinders. It looks nice and compact, and the cutting wheel is positioned more for precise cutting like a circular saw. I am a little...

    Inflater

    I have had this Makita tire inflater for a while and wanted to recommend it. It has been fantastic for topping off all our tires. So small and convenient and I used an 18V Makita battery that I had for some other power tools. This is not for filling up a flat tire - I would use a bigger air...

    Hand Truck/Cart Combo

    Bought this Magliner hand truck and thought it could be useful. It's a Gemini Jr. The Senior version is a bit longer. I can use it as a hand truck, and it converts into a 4-wheel cart. Magliner makes some of the best hand trucks. It was kind of expensive, but very well made and versatile...

    Ratchet and Socket Drawer.

    I finished the ratchet and socket drawer and have more than I need, but it's always fun collecting tools. Like some others, I have an unhealthy addiction to buying tools. I have some SnapOn ratchets, but most of the sockets aren't SnapOn - they are just too expensive. I think GearWrench makes...

    Portable Wood Vise and Homemade Worktable

    This is a new tool addition. Got at Sjoberg Smart Workstation Pro that I can clamp on to my potable workbench for woodworking. After clamping it the whole thing is as solid as a rock. The portable bench setup is two Toughbuilt G700 metal sawhourses. These have some open slots and clamps that...

    Best Screwdrivers

    I'm new to Garage Journal, but I have read a number of articles on tool recommendations in the past. I'm a tool junkie/collector and lately have been obsessed with screwdrivers and have amassed quite a collection. I came across this video on YouTube, which has an excellent comparison of most...
