Thanks Dennis, I will check with Puget Power. Suppose Snohomish PUD as well.

Running lights and a couple outlets from essentially the house to the barns. Replacing existing to the 'old' barn, then new run to newer barn to add lights and an outlet. Would love to go underground, but septic line and a couple unknowns are in the way. In the end, overhead will be easier...

Hi All, Need to run 90' overhead triplex wire. Have a telephone pole on one end. This run goes to an old barn as need to replace. Old run was 150' to another pole. I'm shortening the run, but would like to use pressure treated post instead. 6x6x16 is what I'm thinking. Will that be enough to...

On the gas vehicles, I do it myself. I hate having anyone touch my cars. BUT, the diesel I have done as my diesel guy is just too cheap.

Curious... did you look at this one? If you did, you noted the train runs right behind you. Maybe not a big deal unless they have to blow their horns, which they do about a 1/4 mile from you. You will hear it and it is a busy rail corridor. That river - would not worry about the Snohomish River...

I've got a HF cheapo 3/4hp with 8" wire on one side and grinding block on the other. Runs every time I need it and never gives me a problem. David

Insurance underwriter here.... The car will not be covered by your HO policy, you need a separate policy. If you are restoring it - look for classic auto insurance (Hagerty, Progressive, Safeco, etc....). The typical HO policy will automatically provide 10% of the home value as coverage for...

I've got 7-acres of 3-rail vinyl. cross fenced. Posts for gates are filled with concrete to the top. Other posts set in concrete to just above ground level. Coming up on 18-years with it. Just powerwash occasionally, but no problems except for the one the damned horse kicked while shoed and...

Know this feeling all too well after cleaning out my Dad's shop a few years ago. 40+ years of accumulation to go through - mostly tools and car parts, but everything in between as he never met a free thing he did not like (including the satellite dish and I kid you not - the kitchen sink!). Took...

Just a 2x4 cut to fit...... David

Being an insurance guy - I have to say it - MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PLENTY OF COVERAGE!!!!!! Your typical policy will automatically cover you for 10% of the value of your home for 'other structures' - that includes your detached garage, fences, sheds, pools, BBQ islands, etc.... Most contracts will...

I just use good ole gas. Have always used gas to clean my parts and tools..... David

Ditto - got the 3-ton low profile steel jack. Lifts the F350 no problem..... David

Ooooooo - Washington State...... Please tell me near Everett....... :-) David

Inherited my Dad's Hobart 120. Good thing it's 110v as I don't have 220v available in my garage (condo). It has handled all I need while working on the hot rod.... David

Deputy buddy of mine gave me one their Premier rescue knives. Opens quick, has the serrated edge, seat belt cutter and glass breaker. Seems to be holding the edge for a nice while too... David

Timely issue.... drain field just failed on my system. 250 gallon 'shotgun' style tanks - original to the home from 1922. Had it pumped every five years - forgot and went 7-years this time. Looking at all new system now - tank, vault, poop pusher and new drain field.... rough estimate $12K...

I just cannot restrain myself from replying. I freak'n hate those sensors. So did Dad. He put both of his above the motor about 2" apart when I was young. Amazingly.... many times I darted across the path of those doors......... AND LIVED! I also rode in a car without a carseat and seatbelt...

I would never advocate going without insurance. Please try to get at least minimum insurance coverage to protect yourself and your property, as well as future earnings (in case of a 'bad one'). Also, many people reject or carry very low uninsured/underinsured motorist limits. WHY???? That...

Hmmmm..... surprised they have not updated their contract definitions for 'domestic partner' which would have covered you. I would advise to call an independent agent in your area rather than a direct insurance writer (Allstate, State Farm, Farmers) as the independent agent will/should have...
