Ed, I agree that folks with sub-compact tractors have to be picky about what implements they decide to put behind it, but the market has a lot of...

Undoubtedly, it's a good tool. Milwaukee does good things. These battery powered circular saws are really handy and sometimes problem solvers. No...

If you're planning on selling and moving, use the breaker you have, especially if you have an older, less-supported panel.

It's only going to be very small logs, however, Keith. The BX can only lift about 200 kg/460 lbs and that's keeping things down low. (Dave, you need...

Mark, venting outside isn't going to happen because this will be conditioned space, but yes, I'll be doing careful calculations to insure the return...

That's not unlike the solution I did at my old shop and will do something along the same lines for the new shop. One suggestion is for you to put it...

I have to start at least visualizing how I might use this space because there are certainly a few electrical things that are dependent on location...

I've come to love basswood for electric guitar bodies myself. Really nice stuff!

I suspect that varies by jurisdiction. I just pulled out the one for my recent whole house generator project. It was issued on 26 January 2022 and...

Some drill/driver systems come with an attachment specifically designed to place a hole or drive very close to the edge/corner. Mine is Festool, but...

They are clearly labeled on my saw as for lifting.

Interesting effect, Perry. I'm really mulling over how I want to do the floor for my new shop building. I'd really not prefer to have just plain...

This reminds me of the many thousands of homes in the two Levittown PA (and likely the same in Levittown NY) that were all on slabs with both radiant...

ProClassic is a 100% acrylic. Emerald Urethane Trim Paint is a step above in durability I believe. ProClassic has been my go-to for many years for...

My jurisdiction has a 100% penalty...double the cost for a permit after-the-fact. That's why I havent started my groundwork for the new shop...

The Trimaster is a great band, Stephen, but it also likes a big saw due to its nature. The CT may be a little more forgiving if you don't have a big,...

You have multiple choices; if you need to hand-apply, the BM Advance or SW Emerald Urethane are good choices, although I had good results with SW...

I use the 3 and 5 AH batteries with my Bauer 20v tools. The only time I use the small 1.4 ah units that came with some of them is when I want/need...

I've found that the "house brand" Cat 1 implements have been very good for the money and are more than adequate for the forces generated by...

I had a sump pump fail recently...and bought a replacement since there was several inches of water in the basement and time was of the essence in...

You need to accomplish two things when you are tying down a heavy piece of equipment like this...keep it securely down on the trailer bed and also...

Fortunately, It's easy to deal with the GFCI requirement where all the outlets are already in place using a GFCI breaker for each circuit that...

Interesting thread morph...from a couple of movable hooks for the bucket of a sub-compact tractor to really big-butt tractor 3pt configurations. :) :D

Excellent idea and execution. And contrats on the new saw. I thoroughly enjoyed (and miss) the S315WS I owned for many years prior to our move this...

I have used GF extender with non-GF finishes.

Brian, I also bought a rotary laser for my shop project. For me, I feel it's going to be a lot more useful and less cumbersome than a water level. I...

You have a number of years on me, but I absolutely understand. I really hate hiring things out, but it's a necessary evil at some point. So I guess...

Honestly, there wasn't much of any in the closet at the old shop that wasn't associated with my own foibles with plugging the filter and needing to...

Using super long grade poles and so forth sounds kewel, but just transfering the reference as both Dick and I have suggested is easy, accurate and...

Folks, keep in mind the size of the tractor that the OP is using. The hooks are for utility, not heavy lifting because...there's only a few hundred...
