    Table Saw On/Off Switch Burnt Contacts

    I had the same problem with my Ryobi BTS15 back in 2009. I fixed the switch twice myself, since then I have been using the extension cord as the switch. After reading your thread, I registered my product online and waited a couple of months. During that time, I received NO warnings about faulty...

    "Better Late Than Never" Garage Remodel

    This is why my Garage has been neglected. I have been collecting pallet wood from work. It started with one, and has grown into an obsession. Some of this wood is really nice. Certain pallets I have found are made with exotic woods. After that, I stumbled upon a granite supplier that was...

    Need help identifying vintage tool cart?

    With the help of my wife, I solved the mystery of the tattered service cart. It is a SUN brand engine tester base circa 1957. First I found the spec book on e-bay with an illustration of the cart. After I knew what to call it, a quick google search located this one on HubGarage.com. Thank-you...

    The 5 Stitches Garage.

    Re: My "Shop" The last time I was in Brooksville, I drove the wrong way on Main Street. I got some funny looks but that was about it thankfully. The next time I'm up that way I'll have to go check it out. We have a big flea market here at the drive-in in Tampa. It's better than a regular flea...

    tunnel under sidewalk ideals

    I like the pressure washer idea, but try pushing a pvc pipe through as you are pressure blasting. Just put the wand through the pipe first, feed the pipe as you are blasting the hole, and the waste will exit through the pipe as you move forward.

    "Better Late Than Never" Garage Remodel

    Not much happening lately in the garage. I have been stocking up with woodworking tools so I can build my new workbench. I found this drawer/table when I went to look at a Craftsman toolbox posted on Craigslist. I left the toolbox behind, and brought home the drawer cabinet. What a MONSTER...
