I've seen a few of these before ,but not as a set. Small open-ended wrench looks to be for working with points. Larger wrench with 2 tapered flat pieces -flat pieces cleaned and rounded the battery cable hole. Larger tube with a "T" handle -maybe for rotating the magneto. Two jawed puller...

WHEEL RAMPS: used for smoothing out any tiny imperfections on the driveway as they slide ahead of the tire. Secondary use: bending the chin spoiler out of the way. OIL DRAIN PAN:Particularly useful for coating the asphalt driveway with oil so the driveway will not rust. GREASE GUN:Most often...

I hang my aluminum extension ladder up under my eaves outside my garage. It's out of most rainstorms,but not taking up space inside the garage. If I put it in the garage,knowing me ,I'd probably pile more stuff on it. I also put a padlock on it for security. By the way,all my padlocks are keyed...

A friend has a urinal in his garage with a little wall for a little privacy.He can wave at his neighbours when he's taking a leak!Very handy!

AIR HOSE:features an ability to lose your tire chuck after a single use,and each successive tire chuck you purchase.Also catches on the tiniest tire lug when you attempt to drag it around your car making you 10" too short. DRILL PRESS CHUCK KEY:An ability to absolutely dissappear into thin air...

I've mounted my grinders(4) to a 2.5" pipe welded to the center of car rim.I actually just roll them out to the driveway to use them there. I don't like to grind in my garage as I'm afraid of some sawdust or "Dust Bunnies" catching on fire!I then built a shelf that all of them fit under.

I was just following the power into the house. Big on/off main,then the 200 amp,then a MUCH smaller 100 amp . But you are probably right,the 100 was probably the initial panel-no A/C,heat pump,furnace,water softener,dish washer,washer/dryer back then to worry about! Two wire,maybe even knob and...

I have found that gray shingles tend to last a year or two longer then black/brown shingles. If you really want to put a something funky on the roof you could buy a selection of "broken bundles" for cheap and make your own pattern.Don't forget about putting vents in ,if the attic is closed off...

We just bought a house(circa 1923) with a 11'x21' single car garage.Pictures later! I've been investigating the wiring. The house has a 200 amp panel and a 100(?)amp sub-panel beside it.The garage has what appears to be a 60amp panel.There are some unused breakers on the 200 amp panel ,but all...
