I have a rental house that has an attic crawl space and a gable vent, but no attic fan to pull out the hot air in summer. I've heard mixed things about them, some say they make a difference, some say they don't. The attic has good insulation already, but I feel like the AC unit is strained...

On the house I bought, I have two screw-drive garage doors. The hardware store sells a tube of grease made specifically for screwdrives, and using it in the past, it seems like it's just a tube of white lithium grease to me. Is it alright to use a white lithium spray on the screw drive, or...

I came across this product that looked like a great idea, and haven't seen anyone mention it on the board. It's like a cheater bar for wrenches, but it works a lot better than trying to slip a pipe over a wrench or trying to to connect another wrench onto one. Here is a link for an overview...

I wanted to go in with several other relatives and buy a drill press for my father-in-law, he's really into woodworking. I don't want to buy a used model because it's a gift. Does anyone have any good recommendations for a $400 or so model? Are the Craftsman models any good, I was looking at...

I wanted to see if anyone made an impact driver (for screws) WITH a cord, I can only find cordless models. I hate cordless power tools, the rechargeable battery always seem to **** out after a couple years. These new Litium batteries they use for the cordless power tools aren't cheap...

I was looking at some high-end tool chests, and the prices of the Snap-On's astounded me. These chests are absolutely beautiful but expensive. Snap-on's largest chest set would cost $25,000-$30,000. This is just the chest, no tools. How is it that GM can sell a new car, such as a Chevy...

I like to buy "new" Craftsman tools online through Ebay, as their often quite a bit cheaper than going to Sears, but I was wondering if these "new" Craftsman products are B stock or Refurbished. The items the Ebay sellers sell are new and in the original packaging. I've never seen any obvious...

I just found this forum, and I love it! I had a question about Snap-On's "Flank Drive" feature on there wrenches. What exactly is it? I've heard that this was a pattened feature they at one time owned, but the patent has expired and now most tool manufacturers use it. Is that true? Thanks...
