I have one of those perfectionist brains, the kind that screws you over to the point that there is just no organizational system in place at all. Don't get me wrong, I have a few drawers that are perfectly organized, but I just can't translate that into a larger space. I am a hoarder, butof...

I have the basic idea of things figured out, but I am having trouble actually finding a timer delay normally closed relay that can handle what I am doing. I'm running a 12 volt powered sump pump as a backup in my basement and I need it to only run when we have a power outage. I would like the...

I am looking for a way to charge a single cell of a forklift battery pack, need 2.5 volts and 10 amps and they make exactly what I want, but it is several hundred dollars. I don't need to do this often and I thought a variable voltage/amperage DC power supply would be a more versatile tool to...

I haven't had to buy any bandsaw blades for either of my large bandsaws, I have one that is 150" (12' 6") Rockwell Model 20 and the other is 132" (11') Ellis 1600. I have been buying Morse for my small portable ones or Milwaukee brand for the smaller saw (seems like a unique size). Looks like...

Trying to find this specific part number MT 161, I can't find any at this point. I am trying to time my 6.5 diesel and I wanted to try and use the Lumy Mag to do it. If anyone has one and is willing to part with it, I would gladly pay for it plus shipping. Thanks

I am getting this Wilton Vise, it has 6" wide jaws, is about 24" overall when closed, appears to be a swivel base. I couldn't find a tag, just the maker's castings. Can anyone tell me what model it is? I am trying to figure out how much it weighs and how old it is. Thanks for any info.

I can't really find much on this subject. I have some TCP high bay light fixtures, some have several LEDs that are dead, others have entire arrays, curious to see if anyone has had any experience fixing these? I hate to buy all new lights for no reason, the replacements are an upgrade, but I...

From the interwebs: Latest: Harbor Freight buys majority stake in Snap On Tools

I have had these fitting and couplers for over a year, I do not use them all the time, but one started getting sticky and then wouldn’t release. They only offer brass couplers and the fittings are steel, of course I am using it on a needle scaler so it is beating it all the time. I am just...

At this point the compressor (7.5 HP 14 CFM? 80 gallon tank) will probably be the limiting factor, not budget. I have been looking at both pistol grip and straight. I currently have an IR182, looking at CP and Cleco brands, not sure what else is out there and recommended. Will be used on...

I am looking for a threaded stud, 5/8" - 11 on one end and 5/8" - 18 on the other, can't seem to find any options. It holds the bell housing on a transmission. Overall is about 2 3/8" with 1/2" of course threads and 1 1/8" fine threads. I searched a bunch of terms in google, with no real results.

Been having way too many cars driving up my driveway and either turning around or parking and walking around, I am not always there, but I am starting to get worried. Have a camera system, but police are little help, they just say I can have them towed, so now I am thinking gate, there are...

I am looking for some 14 or 12 gauge stranded wire for 12 volt usage that has a double jacket, I see some that is designed around solar applications, but I can't find any in the US, anyone know where I might be able to buy some? Probably looking for 100', but if I had to buy 1000', I guess I...

I am trying to find a decent paint stripper, seems like the EPA has made it near impossible to buy the good stuff with the deadly chemicals in it. I am not currently removing paint from wood, but I am curious if there are any good paint removers out there. Thanks guys and gals.

After there where some issues with my oil fired furnace, I replaced the coil, replaced the cad sensor and things seemed to be working for a while, had another issue and I decided to bring in someone that knows more than me. They replaced the controller with a digital unit and it works well, I...

OK, so I am not trying to make an extension cord, I am trying to wire up my truck block heater so I can plug it in from the front or rear depending on where I am without making both ends hot. Think junction box to input cords and the block heater. Is there a way to do this? I know generator...

I would like to install some security cameras at my shop. I have internet 24/7, but it is not the fastest speed, probably averages 6 Mbps, it will stream video for sure. I had pre-ordered some of the new Blink XT2 cameras, they arrived today, went to install the app and the newest reviews are...

I have been looking at these wheels for my grinder, all the 8" ones have a 3" center hole, how are you supposed to adapt that to fit a normal grinder? The 6" ones have the 1" hole? Anyone used these?

I feel like there was a stand I saw that was made out of a heavy truck rear end and it rotated, anyone remember that? Am I just crazy? Maybe it was a vise stand? Anyways, I would like to make a really rugged stand that rotates, what I really want is to have the center also be dust...

I will start off with I know I can buy a cheap import for under $200 that will lift 20 tons, that is not what I want. I am currently looking at these two jacks, one is much shorter than the other and I like that, but then it has an external return spring and I don't like that. Space is...
