    any suggestions on wifi thermometers for multiple locations

    Wireless, but not wi-fi. I completely missed that single word in the OP's original post. 🤦‍♂️ I need to follow my own advice, "reading is hard...reading comprehension is harder" as my signature says... :LOL: My apologies!

    any suggestions on wifi thermometers for multiple locations

    I like this one I got from Amazon. It does temp and humidity. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BYF6CTRK?tag=atomicindus08-20

    Parts washer heater

    Here's what I have used in my parts washer (it's a bucket heater like mentioned above). It worked quite well to get the water up to about 115 F or so. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072VFMPKH/?tag=atomicindus08-20

    Grease Gun Storage Help - Leaks

    I used something like this container below by removing the spigot and cutting the hole large enough for the cartridge. Then the hose goes in the other side. Thus, the hose and the cartridge are all contained, and I have no more drops on my floor to slip on! The carry handle is handy as well.

    Vevor Ultrasonic Cleaner

    I got a clone of the Vevor clone last Christmas. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09NMYRGZK/?tag=atomicindus08-20 It's heating capability is much better than the little 2.5 L one I started out with from HF. I've used it to clean mainly small engine parts and carbs. I just use Dawn and warm...

    Briggs and Stratton 3 Hp - I’d numbers

    I found some manuals on the B+S website once I put a zero in front of the first 5 digits of the model number (so 082902-0176 is what I typed in). Attached is an owner's manual and a parts manual that I got off the site. Hope they are useful to you!

    Tecumseh hm80, can’t get it to idle

    The popping and backfiring sounds like it is running lean (and I know you talked about adjusting the screws already). Sometimes those old carbs can be cleaned and cleaned again several times and still not run correctly. I've gone the route of finding a replacement carb on Amazon and haven't...

    Trailer VIN sticker tore up- need to register

    Any chance you have the license plate from the previous owner? I used the old plate on my pickup box trailer and went to the state DMV site. Was able to find the VIN on the trailer that way, which helped with getting it titled and registered in my name. I know you said plates aren't required...

    For the want of a nail . . . err. screw. . .

    I feel your pain, OP. I have those kind of days...a lot! Sometimes it makes me wonder if it is worth getting out of bed!

    Dawn or Palmolive; dish soap for non dish purposes?

    I use Dawn when cleaning carbs in my ultrasonic cleaner and motorcycle parts in my parts washer. It has worked well. I do try to clean off as much external grease and grime beforehand, either mechanically or chemically. I do use Palmolive in my window-cleaning concoction...2 gallons hot...

    Funnel/greasy item storage?

    When we got rid of our old dishwasher, I kept the rack used for silverware. Looks kind of like the one shown below. Funnels get set into the rack, and I have the rack set on an old metal baking sheet to catch drips. No mess, no fuss!

    Between 485 & 705 SQ/FT Welcome......To Odd Acres

    Very nice additions to the workshop! What's the capacity on your new ultrasonic cleaner? I have been looking at something larger than the 2.5 L one I currently have from HF.

    Columbian Vise Jaw Insert Replacements - Help Needed

    Sorry for my slow reply! From your photo, it looks like you need it more than I do, so if you want it, it is all yours! I don't have a need for it taking up space in my cabinet. I'd rather see it get used instead of rusting away in storage. Feel free to PM me your address, and I'll get it...

    Nominating Worst tree

    Mountain Ash trees are bastards...they produce tons of red berries that birds eat. Then the birds leave reddish **** everywhere. Secondly, the flowers smell like *** when they are blooming in May to June. I kid you not...they royally stink! They do litter quite a bit (berries, leaves...

    Power Washer Surface Cleaner Attachment

    I've used an attachment similar to what others have already posted. The only thing I would add is to make sure you have an extension between the attachment and the wand that fits your height. Something like this one...
