I spotted a deal in the clearance section on Saturday. It was a battery powered Dewalt bandsaw. No box, dusty, but zero wear on the wheels, so I assume it was the display model. Clearance price of $44.** from $179! It took me a minute to notice it was 12V and not the 20V that I use. I...

The original tire was a highway style all-season when we bought the 4Runner with about 60k miles in 2018. I think the Wildpeaks would be a little quieter on a wider rim to make it run a little flatter, but my neighbor is also running oversized Wildpeaks on his stock Gladiator with aftermarket...

Just to add a bit more (confusion) to the the tire info, I think the Wildpeaks can be a bit noisy. On our 4Runner, I went from the stock 245/60R20 to 275/55R20 on a narrow 7" rim. So that may contribute to the noise but probably similar to a BFG AT.

I have had good luck with the foaming wasp spray on in-ground nests.

While working in this building, were you surrounded by a lot of "plants"?? ;-)

I would also worry that sheetrock would crack more due to freezing temps causing more expansion/contraction. My 3 season porch has more cracks than it did when we bought it, but maybe that's due to the poor craftsmanship.

I was with the high voltage contractor L.E. Myers. I went to school with "Big Dave" Riley(sp?) and last I heard he was in IT at Fisher. He is a gearhead too, but focused more on mud/rock crawling.

Hello and welcome! Good luck on the shop upgrade and retirement. I used to work in Marshalltown about 12-13 years ago.

I am no expert, but it looks like those seals are really tight. Can you move the whole door further away from the seal/opening?

Looks great! It sure would be easier if the exhaust exited off the back of the head! That's something I have wondered about for a long time, why not design the motor with the carb in front and exhaust in back? I get that its too late now to spin the head 180 degrees because of the valvetrain...

Probably 10 years ago at the corner by my old house, they were replacing the sidewalk at the intersection to make it handicap accessible. They called locates and I an not sure whose fault it was, but they hit a very large AT&T bundle. It took 3-4 days to put it back together and the rumor was...

Could you rent it out to a neighbor?

My opinion is that was not done correctly, but is probably secure. I mean it stood before they "fixed" it. With some knowledge, it could be fixed on the cheap. My old neighbor fixed his garage that probably should have been tore down. Slowly jack up the center, add new cross ties, and...

Car prices should be coming down, so hopefully that will help. Here are a couple that I interest me, but may not work for you... BMW I3- All electric fun little commuter with a real carbon fiber cockpit. If you get one a couple years old, its half the price of new. Optional REX/range...

Just a question/thought on the layout, if you put the 2 post lift where the single car is indicated, won't you have to drive the future RV thru the lift to park? Would this be a bit tight, especially if you have to come in at an angle? The build looks great, I would love to something similar here.

Could you rub some colored chalk or crayon into the #'s? Chalk would be an easy test because it would rinse out, but crayons would last longer and they taste better!

I agree with Gizzygone. The Barrina lights are great until they start dying. I have lost 5 of the 8 in the last 2 months. They have been installed for 2.5 years. I had 1 row across the center and 1 row across the front and it lit my garage perfect. They refunded me about $35 and I am still...

I can't believe you made **** a huge mistake! How could you only make one vise? :) Nice job.

For the next video, you need to kick it up a notch. Maybe drift it around the Lee traffic circle a couple times?? Just kidding, as amazing as it would be to watch, I don't think a drag car drifts very well, let alone one with those massive meats and stock hp. Plus the PD is probably sitting 2...

I picked up a corded Rockwell Oscillating tool with hard case 6-8 years ago from Menards when we lived east of Des Moines. It must have been Black Friday or something because I think it was under $50. I'm very happy with it and I bet it will still be running long after all my 20V Dewalt...
