I'd like to see someone torque a set of head bolts to 125 ft-lb with a 1/4 inch drive. And there are engines that require more torque than that. I won't even mention what some harmonic balancers tak

Those correspond to one of the many, many wire guages, some of which are still in use. There are/were far too many guages - some of which varied by the material being guaged, others were proprietary

Make sure there's plenty of room in your mail spool. It's a high traffic group. My Dad is a table saw fan. I went for the radial arm because I was doing remodeling and roof trusses mostly, but on oc

That's what Tech Line recommends, and what came with my little blaster kit. The stuff has the consistency of flour and is very sensitive to damp - I have to microwave it before use or it'll pack up

Swine. See if I care. My $35 Taiwan floor jack is just fine. Just fine... An air chuck and quad outlet on each post would probably be just fine. You might think about fabricating a tool tray to hang

That's a fair price. Not an outstanding price, but fair. The majority of Craftsman lathes were made by Atlas, which is out of business, but parts are still available through Clausing.

Try for at least 50 amps. 100 if you can. Never can tell if you might wind up with an electric car in the garage someday.

While the trench(es) are open, throw in a few runs of twisted pair in case you want to run an intercom, burglar or fire alarm, remote light switches, LAN extension, or whatever. Wire is plenty cheap

I have one of those. I'm happy with it, but despite its size it's still a "hobby" compressor. It won't run an air die grinder or disc sander continuously. It *almost* keeps up, but after about five

Probably okay. As far as I know you can't tell by looking at it. Eventually the rods, crank, or other components will fail due to fatigue, but it tends to be a rapid process - if you happened to Mag
