Thanks for the feedback from a few people. Stopped off at the industrial supply house to pick up some larger glass beads: Size ranges from BF4 to BF13. (Course to fine). The BF13 is so fine it feels

I've taken small towels, flipped the bottom third up, then stitched in some "pockets". Tools drop down, flip over the top, and roll it up. Secured the roll with a velco strap, and you have a tool bo

Agreed, seem odd any recycler would suggest mixing it with the oil. NO! Sadly it takes very little to contiminate the water supply. Brake fluid is really a nasty chemical, not sure why but that tid
