Does anyone know who makes the pumps for the rolling RJ-45's? I have two and the pumps will not hold pressure anymore. Used them a dozen or so times and they are out of warranty. There is a rebuild kit but with 3 years of age and a dozen uses do I want these pumps even after rebuild?? I...

So I have had my floor down for about 10 years EpoxyShield great product survived many car/other projects in the garage. So I decided it was time to clean...so I did... And clean it came. The floor was never glossy, more like a matte finish. After cleaning with the scrubber it is even...

So I have an 8x8 garage door, Amaar, metal foam. As best I can tell it weighs 120lbs according to my bathroom scale. I had a spring break the other day, safety cable saved me so no damage to cars. Sounded like a Howitzer going off in my garage. But now I need to replace the spring - thought...

So I installed some outdoor LED lights for my deck and stairs. They work great but the issue is where they are plugged in. The kit says the transformers are waterproof, but I think they should be in some type of box. Plus I am not real keen on having the lids up on the receptacle. The issue...

Any folks in Northern VA that have installed one? So I am looking at a purchase and looked up code for my garage slab thickness and according to Loudoun County it is min thick as 3.5. Most of the folks in the residential construction arena say that 4 is the standard. But who knows when they...

So it turns being on the east coast is good for something...having the distributor of these lifts 120 miles away...so the journey begins. That is a $250 savings in shipping right there. Don't get too excited - I pretty far off in the process and trying to weigh the pros and cons of doing this...
