    Does soldering Lead ever go bad?

    I bought a big box of this lead a while back and was wondering why I always see rolls of it at garage sales. Usually it's cheap so I was wondering if people are trying to get rid of it or something. I don't know anything about pluming but thought i'd learn some day so I pick it up when its...

    OK, here's my problem. I don't know anything about how to clean furniture or preserve my old wood dressers. I have tried products like indust, and lemon home bright. But it all turns the surface to a white/grayish gooey mess. Obviously I'm using the wrong chemicals but I have no clue what to...

    How do you rotate tires???

    So I took my jeep Cherokee to Walmart auto yesterday to have the tires rotated. I thought I knew which tires went where when rotating them but they did it another way. The tires are Goodyear SR-A and have roughly 8500 miles on them. They were bought new at WM and had never been rotated.

    First Garage - CC 3 Bay 24x40x12

    I have a friend that had the same problem. Since they could not do anything about the building, all they do is call the police every time he is out there making any noise. And by noise I mean opening the doors or if he cuts some 2x4's. Too late at night, too early in the morning, etc.

    My humble shop in the Northern Rockies

    X 2 on needing more pics and info. Did you build it, build pics etc. That is way cool of a shop. The wood burning stove would make me nervous but I guess that was how we've done it for hundreds of years. I have a buddy that heats a 30X30 shop with a barrel stove and it does the job great...

    What is the difference between single or double pane windows?

    I am asking because I don't know and we are going to be investing in new windows and doors for our house this summer. Is one more efficient than the other? I would like to be able to open them if I want in the summer. I don't know if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance, Hoss.
