    You got a steal from the sounds of things, I wish I'd seen this. Same thing is $100 more right now. Thanks for the reply. I dont understand the whole response but am also not a Milwaukee aficionado by any means so am not well versed on the nuances between versions. My last hand electric 18v...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Milwaukee Power Tools Deal Permathread

    I'd love to get that kit for $150. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for a fuel ratchet deal. Didn't even realize the other 2 pieces in that bundle were fuel and the ratchet was not. Not even sure my homeowner use needs would justify the difference but food for thought I suppose. Thanks for...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Determined by pulling all spark plugs that cylinder 1 is leaking around the spark plug tube seal into the tube. I replaced this valve cover only approximately 4k miles ago because cylinder 5 was having this issue. It will be easier to do the job in July than it was in January, however I am not...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Started outside the garage but finished inside. My vehicles starter died parked in my mom's driveway, about a 40 degree incline. I braced everything, multiple jack stands, the jack and the wheel underneath as a backup just in case. Chocked all 3 wheels that remained on the ground, and used a...

    Sam’s Club -VS- Costco

    I've got Costco and Bj's memberships. No Sam's Clubs near me. Bj's seems to provide bulk, but a little smaller than Costco. This is helpful on some things as I just dont have the space in/at my current living conditions for super bulk packs of some things. Once I have more fridge and freezer...

    Matco triple bay. Bought it!

    Nice purchase. That will continue to clean up nicely and serve you well for years to come. I am jealous seeing in your photo that you already have flowers popping up out of the ground. A few more weeks up here in New England, for which I am thankful for and eagerly awaiting the change of season.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    1979 Ariens still throws snow like a champ, as does the 96 Craftsman. 11 inches in my area of operation cleaned and cleared over a 5 hour span. good to be back indoors.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Snowblowers fueled yesterday and this morning at the 2 locations I manage the snow at. Experiencing a Blizzard here on the East Coast of the USA today. Cleanup will be fun as winds are expected to stick around a bit after it officially stops coming down.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    A small shot of silicone spray and a quick drive around the neighborhood to spread it around and in fixed the squeaky steering wheel noise that is worse in winter. It is the small things in life some days. Now off to a nice dinner with the mrs and some friends as we have a long weekend and no...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    cheap brake hardware kit replaced with quality stuff. the cheapies were from Napa and were scratching as they weren't quite manufactured to spec. My thought is likely because they fit a few different vehicles. the replacements I got from rock auto were cheaper, albeit I had to wait for them...
