I have a general rule of thumb I use on dust collection:

Less than 3hp is wishful thinking.

Sadly, it’s not a joke.

Like my Mother used to say: " It must not have been important".

I'm going to add this probably useless bit of information for about anyone, but just in case it does anyone any good.

I had this problem with one of my timber framing chisels. I work on golf...

Unfortunately, as the population grows so does the half that's below average intelligence.

There are many ready made options. I have always made my own because I like for the plate to be hidden inside the post. I have an easy way to get such things hot dip galvanized though that is only...

I think maybe Artificial Intelligence is not as intelligent as some think it is.

Porch and floor paint used to be good for the purpose, but it's been a long time since it really has been. I'm thinking about trying Durepox.

Me neither. The thought of needing to borrow a tool doesn't compute.

That was a good first post, Dennis!

Thankfully, I don't think they're used for anything any more, but I wouldn't be surprised to see some turn up on old stuff.

The primary use for the T17 screws is trailer skin screws, also sometimes called tamperproof.

Don't try to ever re-use one of those stainless trim screws. They're very soft and the head can...

This made me think of a sign to have made to post in the shop:

In 1980 I lent out a concrete power trowel-haven't seen it since

I lent out a dump trailer. It came back when I went to get it,...

Or T17 TORX for some of the larger ones. Probably like these though, with T10's.

Never. …..

200k for me on the dually.
20k on my wife’s car.

Either one a 20 minute job for me.

I'll look at mine today, but I think mine is the 6-3/4" one rather than the 6-1/8".

They’re so easy to change and have to have the right cut out notches and bolt holes. Not worth the trouble unless someone made them specifically for it.

I'm guessing yours is not a diesel dually. I haven't looked at them lately, but not too long ago they were all around a hundred grand. New stereo is a good tip. It needs one anyway. That's about...

I thought it was most interesting that the performance of the Honda went down with premium, but got a hair better fuel mileage from it. I guess the computer makes no adjustment to take care of the...

Thanks Edward. That was a good read, and I feel like tells the most accurate story.

It's nice to keep the little electric one ready to go. Every time I finish cutting grass it only takes a minute to blast the mower off before putting it back in the house.

I have the gas one...

We have a local dirt race track and several stations that sell race gas. I saw some guys putting it into their stock Harleys one day. I knew the guys so asked them why they were buying race gas for...

I've had one to mount for several years, but it's not that high on the to-do list. Hard part is finding a place for the GPS whose screen would be used that it would stay in place securely. I...

I just wish my truck had a backup camera.
