    'Coons on the roof

    If I were nearby I'd happy to make a .22 caliber hole through the part of your choosing. It is near silent.

    Finally bit the bullet and bought a TIG welder

    I've had a hankering for a tig unit for some time. I was looking at the Everlast untis a while back. Had some dialogue with one of their reps on one of the tractor forums where he advertises and decided they were likely the best value with some actual USA based customer support. I don't have a...

    Insulated boots....

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/VIKING-VW79-7-Chain-Saw-Boots-Steel-Toe-11-In-7-PR-/221275468672 I had something similar to this when logging. NOTHING comes close to the grip of corks. I loved wearing them. I felt like a squirrel jumping from log to log like there was glue on the bottom of my feet...

    How to stop the fog????

    I've had a couple sets of the helmets (worked as a buckerman for a while). The first one the flipper for the screen eventually came apart. Second one I've used for some time with no problems. Not sure which brand it is. I'll never use anything else. One quick flip and the screen is out of the...

    How to stop the fog????

    Amazon.com: Husqvarna ProForest Chain Saw Helmet System: Home Improvement That's what I use. Of course you're doing any falling, the hardhat should be worn anyway. Perfect protection for vision hearing and your most vital organ :)

    Not a shop tool but it is a tool of sorts. I built the chute controls from a wiper motor and a generic actuator. Spent under $100 on EBAY. The dealer wanted about $1000 for these options. I used an 18 mm socket with the square drive cut off, and drilled out to 3/4" (after heating to de-temper)...

    Very nice work. Just wondering if the uprights might be weak in the longitudinal plane. Maybe a short third brace?

    radiant heat

    http://www.tesmar.com/ Cost of supplies from him when I purchased was lower than I could find elsewhere, plus you get top notch advice.

    radiant heat

    Google Tom Tesmar or I can get his contact info later. He sells high quality pex and other radiant materials and consults on installs. He's the best in the business. You don't need insulation under the slab, just a thermal break between slab and outer foundation.

    radiant heat

    I put radiant in my home, all pex, in the concrete basement, in the two main floors with stapled metal plates. Its heated by regular hot water heaters, not a boiler. Shoot me a PM if you have questions about that type of install.

    How to butt weld 2 pipes together straight?

    Used CPAP machines are great for making a supplied air system. I bought a Tyvek hood/mask for about $60 then just a long piece of CPAP tubing. Very nice to have.

    show me your homebuilt body rotisseries

    Take a look at mine and you will see the attachments are built to place the center of rotation roughly at the center of the car. You need this for two reasons. Yes it will want to rotate to the heavy side. Mine has enough turn resistance to stay put in any position because it is roughly...

    quick floor jack mod

    Good job. It could be removable by welding a piece of pipe the right diameter to the disc, couple holes drilled for long bolts... I've thought of something like that just to gain 6" or so.

    Hole saw hooplah

    I agree, creative, and I like the slant pulley idea. You didn't tell us why you're cutting all these holes. :)

    Fowler cylinder bore guage?

    1st one went for $76.00. 2nd one still at a low price - watching. The rings are priced too high - over $30.00 each.

    Fowler cylinder bore guage?

    Fowler 72-646-300 6" Cylinder Dial Bore Gauge : Amazon.com : Automotive Anyone use this? I'll be needing something to check out my used 5.9 Magnum. The other idea is just get a cheaper set of telescoping bore guages and use with my caliper but won't be so accurate I think.
