Saved an old Sears cement mixer for the junk yard. Needs a new motor. Start winding is bad. The tag is weathered so can't see all the numbers. Anyone know what it is????

Probably been talked about many time, but what is the best way to pull down the corners after they have aged????

Years ago we had a driveway done. It had a depression hole along the wall. They put some kind of patch on it, but the edges are cracking off. Sometimes a car will drive over it. So what would be the best way to fix this????

I am looking for a swivel spray aerator for my utility room faucet. Can't seem to find one with a fitting large enough to fit. I'm guessing they are made for kitchen sink. Any ideas what I should be looking for???

I have an old Homelite XL "little Red Saw" that hasn't been used in a while. Need to cut down a tree, so trying to get it going. Kind of a pain to work on these things. Had to take it apart just to get the air filter out. Sprayed starter fluid in, and it started. The primer bulb is gone, fuel...

Probably correct. I didn't want to use a good bit, so I got the cheapest one I could find. I'll try a good bit. They would snap just where they came out of the holder.

I did try that with a few different bits. For some reason the bits would snap more often than the correct bits.

I can't seem to find a replacement, #6/-3/32, pilot drill bit for my old Makita countersink drill/driver. These have a flat on the bottom so the set screw can hold it. I tried to use a regular bit, but it just didn't hold. Any ideas where I could fins some. I have tried Amazon already

I have solar, so the water heater doesn't work to often. We've been having lots of rain the last few day, and I noticed not much hot water. I reset the breaker in the heater. It normally trips when the water, from the solar, get to hot. It's been that way from when we got it. They did come out...

What kind of wood do termites like the least????? Would it be as good as if I treat treat the wood with the green termite treatment????

Now that makes sense. Thank you

So project has started. I am sanding the paint off both sides. Plan on using Loctite PL3X. 3/4" CDX on he inside, and ACX on the out side. Nail gun nails. One question...... On the joints between the ply, would is be stronger if it were cut at an angle instead of 90'???? I would think more...

Climate change is because we have way to many people on the earth. Our population has exploded in the last 10 years. If someone really wants to do something useful to cut back on Co2. They should take a flying leap off a cliff. If all of these "green" people would do it to "save the planet"...

Going to jack it higher than even before adding the ply. I'm sure it will sag a little. It's been over 25 year since done, and it has sagged over an inch. Took out the sag with a pole, but the pole is always in the way. So it has to go. Friend who's going to help said not to spread the PL out...

There are so many out there. So many reviews and clips. So which is the strongest???? I'm looking for something to hold the surface of plywood to wood beam. Looking to repair a sagging beam by sandwiching it between 3/4" plywood. Sistering????
