https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CB825446/?tag=atomicindus08-20 At $27, it is pretty hard to pass up. I just got this one with a coupon (sadly now gone) for $23, and it works as advertised, so now I have a spare, which means I can set them up outdoors at night to light up both ends of the badminton...

Figured I'd ask the hive mind, even though it's not truly garage related, since this place is full of all sorts of knowledge. I have a small (too small) bathroom, that I'm renovating, with just enough room for an alcove tub (60x30, or perhaps as big as 66x32). I have been looking at acrylic...

By popular demand, I've decided to start a thread documenting my PM66 (the "centerpiece" of my shop), rather than hijack any existing threads. It all began several years back, when I was picking up a Stihl power sweep on CL, when I said "nice saw", and $300 and a day later he was dropping off...

I’m rebuilding a Burr King 760 belt grinder (jut got me a nice KBDC VFD and 3HP 3-phase motor for it), and the contact wheel bearing is pretty rough. I’m hoping to replace it, but not pay Burr King prices. I know enough about bearings to get myself into a little trouble, but I can’t seem to...

Seeing this questioned in another thread, I had to ask what everyone here thinks? edit: For the record, mine is a two door (plus a man door), zero car garage. But my Jeep has been parked behind each door at least once, though that was a long time ago. Only one door currently is able to be...

Just spotted this on CL. The script Lincoln logo isn't one I recognized, and it had me intrigued. So, does anyone know anything more about this toolbox? https://longisland.craigslist.org/tls/d/antique-metal-tool-chest/6395100581.html

The recall appears to cover most of their plastic handled fire extinguishers (including some that were previously recalled), plus their gauge-less pushbutton extinguishers. Apparently, they've got an issue with them failing to work. They're on the hook for replacing nearly 40 million...

I'm changing the ball joints (among a few other things) on my Wrangler, and ran into an issue that has not come up for me before. I do most of my work on the car with my 1/2" drive deep impact socket set. I've got the Snap On 325SIMM set, which includes (25) deep impact sockets (10–27, 29, 30...

In a good way. Wait, huh? I knew that title would get your attention. Remember when Sears was selling Craftsman badged Vessel screwdrivers with JIS tips? Well, I just saw an email promoting their weird and strange **** like their flex-claw hammer, and their sad offshored pliers, and at the...

I have a 3 phase power factor correction filter at work that uses large banks of 40uf 600VAC capacitors that look like this: There are several strings of capacitors in parallel, and the way this is wired (from the factory), a wire runs from a terminal block to a crimped spade lug on a...

Several months ago, I saw a thread where someone asked for ideas of what to do with their vacuum pump. greasyfingers01 was thinking of hooking it up to a propane tank, and using it as a vacuum oil extractor to do top-side oil changes. Well, that lit up a light bulb over my head, and I...

This was the garage sale find of a friend. We've got no clue what it is. Stanley No 530 Made in U.S.A. Anybody recognize what this is, or came from?

While walking down the aisles I spotted this hunk of rust. I asked the guy how much it was, and he said ten bucks. My reply was: "Well, if I offer you $5, and you say yes, I'm going to buy it, and my wife is going to brain me with it. But I can't help myself. Will you take $5?" And that's...

I went to Home Depot today, and on my shopping list was a new wheel for my 6" bench grinder. It seems that HD is happy to sell someone a 6" Ryobi bench grinder (not the brand I own, just what they sell), but the only bench grinder wheels they have for sale in the store are the ones on the...

I have three Milwaukee M18 XC 3.0Ah Red Lithium batteries up for sale. $42 each, shipped. ($30 if you want to pick them up on Long Island). They came with Milwaukee Fuel kits I bought almost exactly 1 year ago, and were only lightly used. For some weird reason, they have two different styled...

I think the picture says it all. I got them real cheap on Craigslist. I'm thinking that I drill out the broken one, and use a 5/8" hitch pin instead. It just needs to hold up my Subaru a few inches higher than I get out of my 3 ton stands.

Chicago Pneumatic CP717 air hammer. Works fine, BUT it needs this $7 3/4" inlet bushing to be connected to your air hose: http://www.airtoolpartsnow.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=104_298_75&products_id=1672&zenid=8f97b7b1b967171211f56143b3c8b6c8 and I have no chisels for it...
