    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Cleaned and polished the chrome and stainless trim on my '70 Chevelle, the bumpers, trim rings, grille area and window moldings. Made a big difference and has inspired me to go ahead and wax the whole car.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I started to get my lawn equipment into shape for the upcoming growing season. Today I got the edger and walk-behind mower ready. New air filters, plugs, oil changes and general cleaning and adjustments. Tomorrow I start on my lawn tractor (assuming I'm not in too much pain from what I did...

    bottom door seal

    Have you tried a local garage door company? Take a short piece of the old gasket with you to their location to verify it will fit.

    Garage fire extinguishers

    I was speaking based on the concept of you buying a single extinguisher to do the job, not buying multiple units. Buying several units is a good way to address the situation. By doing so, you know that you will have one that will work, you can position them strategically, and the fire will not...

    Garage fire extinguishers

    I was not responding to the posters financial ability to buy any unit he could afford as the best course of action. I was only trying to point out that being frugal 'by choice' was not the best option in this circumstance. He was basing this opinion on which one he would buy on the premise that...

    Garage fire extinguishers

    There are some situations where you might be able to justify cutting costs. This simply is not one of those situations. Purchasing a fire extinguisher is a one time expense, not an ongoing financial drain on your wallet. Considering you may end up using it to protect life or property, it seems...

    NO! I will not accept best offers! However, I will take $50.00 off the shipping charge if you pick it up in person.

    what ever happened to Liquid Wrench?

    OMG! Reading this thread made me realize that I had a complete collectors set of these rare, sought after lubricants. I am putting these treasures up for sale to the GJ family. The first $1,000.00 takes them all (plus $300.00 shipping)!!!

    Lets see your workbench

    Yes, the decor is indicative of my career of 25 years. My den became too over decorated with this kind of stuff so I moved it out to the garage. It actually works well, it is not as much of a glare scenario as the pictures might seem to indicate. Even with the garage lights and the overhead...

    Lets see your workbench

    I'm getting up there in age so I do not have many projects these days. Mostly just vehicle maintenance on the '70 Chevelle and the yard equipment, and other minor projects, so this works for me.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Got the riding mower ready for the cutting season. Changed the plugs, put on 3 new blades, change the oil/filter, air filter, 2 new deck wheels, lubed her up, aired up the tires. Lord knows how sore I will be in the morning.

    Element Fire Extinguisher?

    I found a site for a unit called extinguish stick that is the exact same thing as this one being discussed here. They compare it 'pricewise' to the cost of a 30# fire extinguisher!? Really?, a 30 pounder? So they tout how cheap it is. They also show an obviously doctored video of a man using...

    fire extinguisher or sprinklers

    ABC is the best way to go for a typical garage environment, which I assume you are referring to. They can be used on any type of fire you are likely to have, therefore you are not likely to make things worse by accidentally using a wrong extinguisher on the wrong type of fire (electrical...

    Fire Extinguisher Info

    I was in the extinguisher business from 1970-80. I thought we were kinda cheesy back then but this guy makes those of us from that era look angelic by comparison. Please tell me that he took the Co2 into the shop for the hydro testing/recharge. BTW you could have bought a new one for less (at...
