I also coat the back of the rims where they contact the hub or rotors , really makes a huge difference.

Same here, I’m a big fan of the copper anti -seize.

That’s a nice kit, congrats. I only ever had a few bits, purchased as singles when needed… and it’s way too easy to lose or misplace a single bit. Next time I have a need, I’ll probably pick up a kit

Have you ever used left-hand drill bits ? “Sometimes” they will bite and spin the bolt out

Best handle ever

That’s creative. Vice grips are typically only used on vehicle doors LOL

I believe he’s waiting for things to “calm down” a bit more to ship yours. I don’t know what’s happening at the border as far as mail/packages, but if you want him to send them off, yup, send an email.

Just ordered some StealthMounts battery mounts for my Makita and Bosch batteries. 18 of each should do the trick.

Those are nice. I need to get some as well. Get those batteries off a shelf and on the wall.

Yup, My Dewalt came with .080 line, but I read that the .095 will work with it. I asked a friend what he uses, he has a lot of trimming to do, much along chain-link fence, some along stucco, all aound the concrete foundation of his 5 bay garage and the walls around his parking…[Read more]

Question for guys with string trimmers…
Do you have a preferred brand of string ? I ran out today 3/4 the way throught trimming so I need to get a spool. Like anything else I started reading reviews. For every pro “best line I ever used” there’s an equal con “this line is junk”

Boschmanbrian wrote:drill into both areas that the step will be attached to

I wouldn’t do both, just floor. That way if there’s any movement the step could float with the floor.

As for movement of form, screw some plywood strips to the bottom of the form flush with inside, protuding around outside. A few tapcons throught the plywood into the…[Read more]

Just a DIY simple fence. Even a piece of angle iron clamped to the table would work just fine for that

It would work great on a drill press when you have to drill a series of equally spaces holes

What about kerf ? Touching off on the left side of the blade and zeroing out would leave the piece you need(on the right side of blade) short the kerf thickness

Since my son is “work from home” he’s really been keeping busy with home projects. He got a good jump start on some of his planned raised beds this weekend

Picked up a small kit of T-shank blades

I have a similar one for probably 25 yrs. Keep it stuck on the fridge door (has a magnet on the back) so it’s always handy. You can pick them up on A for a couple of bucks.
