I've done it for many years without concerns or problems. I don't ever enter sensitive information on an unsecured site (eg use only ones that start HTTPS), and now I use Apple Pay on line so that my...

Incredibly unlikely that if you've done all the work on the up and up (eg with permits) and paid them what they asked for that they can come after you later on. You've done what's required to inform...

If you can draw the part in an appropriate graphics program there are a range of rubber-like polymers that could be used to 3D print it....

Fortunately I have a big hayloft to store the empty systainers because I can't bear to throw them away.

Quarter inch Azek board caulked to exclude water at the joint and screwed in place would do the trick nicely.

Try calling them and asking-- the owner has answered the phone on occasion when I've called and been extremely helpful.

I was traveling for most of the month so only got to try the FSD on a couple short trips. I thought it was a really impressive proof of principle. Worked way better than I expected and vastly better...

We're being invaded by asian jumping worms in the northeast. They destroy the forest leaf mulch layer resulting in loss of both many plant and insect species that depend on it. While almost none of...

I'm aware of only three car washes within a 10 mile radius of my house and none being built. Not aware of any associated with gas stations, and none of the self-serve pressure wash places that seem...

McMaster offers a couple different sizes and styles. Ones for sticking in a sheep (mutton?) are probably big. :D (sorry, couldn't resist)

if you negotiate the document fee to zero you should have no surprise when some other line in the bill increases by that ~$500. What both you and the dealer should actually care about is the total...

Just a very beginning carver here, so I do what my teacher tells me to do-- which is honing freehand on a leather wheel charged with a green buffing compound. He has a grinder that he will use to...

120 to 150K miles on the ICE cars, 30-40K miles in my F350 that gets driven fully loaded-- 24,500 lbs, often in hilly country. I've touched the brakes maybe three times in the first year of owning...

OK, I get it. Just trying to figure out what I did that was wrong, especially since I went to the trouble of getting a non-paywalled link so that people could read it. It appears quite mysterious if...

I recently posted a new thread containing a link to a newspaper article about impending rule making with respect to table saw safety features in consumer products that I found interesting and highly...

AFAIK, metal boxes need their own ground, independent of the grounding on the outlet. Typically done with a pigtail that is screwed to the box and than wire nutted with the ground wire coming into...

Steel wool after it's dry!

My first use of RM was on our curly maple kitchen island, which gets seriously used and abused (though not cut directly on)-- lots of water, foods that stain, and black iron stains from my pans and...

I've never tried veneering both sides at once other than with a two part form-- which didn't go so well. I've used a bending form or the actual interior structure of the bent piece on the inside and...

This thread begs the question of why 4 x 8? When and how did building in the US standardize on doing things in 2 ft increments with 16 or 24" spacing? There's no indication in older houses that the...

I found that the Grammercy brushes for waterborne finishes made a huge difference in my ability to use these finishes (mostly Emtech products for me, including some of the "spray only" versions for...

It's hard to make a specific recommendation because the products available change very quickly, though they are all basically the same. I used a "bullet" or "spy" camera from Amazon with a small tube...

Last year my "local" hardwood supplier (Highland Hardwoods in NH) had very nice curly walnut in 4/4 and 8/4 boards for $15-17/bf. Nice, but not spectacular-- not as dramatic as the ones in your...

My podiatrist, who sells a fair share of witchcraft in his practice, says he won't do it because it doesn't work. I'm inclined to believe him. The only proven approach is systemic antifungal drugs....

I understand that violin makers use sodium nitrite and UV or sunlight to "tan" maple prior to varnishing. I have no experience with that, but might be worth a look.
