Yes it is nice to have the small platform for holding smaller items. I think I may look at trying a bucket idea. Or I just might build a small p…

I think that’s a goose not a duck.

so the entire faucet is a giant toggle bolt.

Ever heard of a PACKOUT couch?

I use a multiladder as a foldable extension ladder. That’s it. I never used it as an A-frame step ladder, tried once or twice then gave up.

When I need an A-frame, whether that is to hang a ceiling fan, or change out a light, or paint fascia, or attach brackets on walls, whatever…almost every task require some work platform to sit parts on.…[Read more]

well, my account is still messed up. Some tools are missing some tools are there and the information of some of them are incorrect.

I called again last week and spoke to a customer service rep at Bosch, who told me they are having lots of issues with the migration.

He told me back in 2019 some issues came up with the Provantage accounts that…[Read more]

No sand filling needed. But if I bend it by hand or use bending springs, sand will help with preventing kinks.

That’s pretty cool , did you buy it to use , or just to keep because it’s antique

I bought it to use. I have over 240′ of 1/2″ soft copper in inventory that I intend to use up some day hopefully. I am doing more with PEX these days but I like to work with copper more even thoug…[Read more]

I have three multi ladders, but those are the least used ones as I too prefer the A frame or extension when I have them close by. If I have to drive to another property to grab one then I will settle with the multi-ladder to save a trip. I am at a point I almost have an A frame and an extension ladder at each property.

A bender for conduit?

Bingo! Yes it’s for soft copper tubing bending.

Paid $140 for a “vintage” hand tool.

Care to guess what it does?

Water pressure on the supply side has nothing to do with the drain side.

If the pressure is suddenly low it could be a number I f things.

Is the pressure low everywhere? Shower, sink, outside bibs?

Buy a $20 pressure gauge and test your pressure at an outside bibs. Ask the city what the expected pressure is and see if it’s outside the…[Read more]

OK I broke out the Bosch multigrip saw again.

I am just wondering everyone has received their boxes they have been waiting for?

I think it’s been hits and misses. What I do is after two months of no news no box I send an email asking if the redempton item is out of stock or not. Last redemption I did in September 2020 I sent three e…[Read more]

I am thinking a few starlock blades.

that’s why I said in the past you really can’t redeem for something you will need short term and rely on it showing up before you really need it. 3, 6 or more months of wait is not uncommon. Items out of stock or discontinued may be communicated may be not.

What I think works is something that improves your current tool, but you don’t have to…[Read more]
