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????

Nationalist socialist state of hawaii. We don't have a smog problem. But sometimes, when the wind changed, the steam from the eruptions cover the island. I've had problems with water based paints not drying. That's why I went to oil based. Now no oil based, so I guess I have no choice.

I went to look for some oil based paint, and seems no one here has any. One guy I talked to, said they've been out for a long time. I've heard that the gooberment wants to phase out oil based paints. It's just not green enough for people that have no idea about paints. Could it be true?????

I also have the samething happen sometimes. It seems only from one sink. The kitchen sink. It's the closest sink to the main pipe. Drains is slow sometimes, so I use some Enzyme drain cleaner for a few days. Seems to work. We're on city water and sewer.

I got one of those laser temp guns, and have been checking the temp around the house. Normal temp is around 85' wall and ceiling. On really hot days it's 98' on the sun facing wall, and over 100' at the ceiling. I can feel the heat coming from the ceiling. Kind of like a broiler in the house. We...

I also was looking into solar roof vent. More of the gable fan type, not the hole in the roof type. But the solar fan has so little power, it just not worth it.
