Remember DriGas, Heet, and other additives to prevent gas line freeze up? They were just alcohol, and mixed with the water, prevented freezing and most important, allowed the mix to burn without...

I'm curious as to the actual gun in question. 22 that breaks down into two pieces causes me to picture a couple of very interesting pump action models. I've never encountered a bolt gun with that...

I recently added insulation to my attic, rather an insulating contractor blew some for loose fill fiberglass on top of my existing. We discussed super insulating the ductwork but he, and others I...

I voted non of the above. But that's not really true, I use Coke when I want a Coke, Root Beer when I want a root beer etc. I don't think I've ever heard someone in my area use a generic term for...

All dependent on the AHJ. In my area there is no issue with a building inspector once the lender and pre-purchase inspection is done. Insuran.ce company may or may not do an inspection before...

I'd bet they know what it is and have either seen it before with another customer or duplicated it in testing.

Had to look that up as I used to sell on ebay and plan to start again soon. They have a new feature called 'business policies' which is intended to aid in listings, reduce time. It allows one to...

Should be easy enough to just replace the overtemp switch. Probably 10 buck on ebay after you figure out what temp range you need. Or available from a local H&A shop for more money.

But it was attributed to Vince Lombardi. No matter who said it, they were right!

OTOH, some of the group celebrations that are well choreographed are kinda neat, one, or at least a few per...

Often overlooked in this discussion is the effect of weights on the center of gravity. Loaded tires lowers it, how much depends on how much fluid is in there, that is how high up in the tire is the...

I just can't imagine a motor that small costing anywhere near that for a bearing replacement.

More info about the tool would be great. Pics better. Any data from tags on the motor too.

It really depends on the molding shape and length. But if it is manageable on a router table I'd try cutting the ends of the notches with a back saw or chop saw and cleaning out the waste with a...

Another Gator fan. I have used them on several mowers and they work well on all.

My solution was to make my own 'felt type. I have some commercial carpet squares, about 24x24, really heavy quality weave and strong backing. I cut that to fit everything in the house, beds,...

Very true. Also true is it should be easy to locate at least two 66" pieces of clear 2x6 #2 or better at the lumber yard even if it means cutting them out of a longer piece. Defect free SYP or DF...

Part of the problem is that the vast majority of the people developing the code are employed by manufacturers. Thus are paid by the companies that stand to profit from the resulting code. GFCI,...

I was expecting a video made in Arkansas.
Here is some info on our 'made in America' version.

Can't find a good...

GFCIs trip due to an imbalance in the current on the two wires. I think the threshold is around 4 to 6 milliamps. Meaning some current is leaking to ground, usually through a wiring fault or issue...

I sorta know how they work, but am unclear as to the method of engaging the clutches. The torque converter 'slips' at low speeds but allow autos ito idle in gear and transmit power when speed...

I've encountered that issue with tool chest casters, band saw tires and car suspension parts. All originated in China.

I suspect that is a seller charge, not shipper. The reason I think so is that I have ordered auto finishes several times in the last year or so. Paint, filler primer, epoxy primer etc. All were...

IMHO, a 60t quality blade, negative or 0 hook angle is optimum to reduce self feed tendencies in thicker material. But, IME a 5deg works well up to 3/4" stock with minimal self feed. But, don't use...

A few years back the local utility (city owned/operated) replaced our old dumb electro-mechanical meters with the latest and greatest smart meter. One of the reasons for that was that they were...

My Phonak aids speak Bluetooth to my Iphone also. For the first time in years I can actually hold a decent phone conversation. Don't even have to touch the phone to answer as the RH aid has a small...

I have a couple of grandkids on our AT&T wireless plan, both Iphone users. The 19YO bought an Apple watch. I was a little surprised to see an monthly charge for its service on the bill.
