The local Tech School where I recently took a welding course has floors coated with something clear. Anyone know what that might be? It doesn't look quite as fancy as a painted floor, but it provides

It is my understanding that POR-15 (and some other similar products) are not UV stable. They change from black to "ugly" if exposed to the sun. Check into this before you do an outdoor gate, unless y

I prefer the regular "snap" type traps. At least they usually dispatch the mouse quickly. I have no great sympathy for rodents, but finding live mice desperately trying to escape from a glue trap is

One solution I've heard for this (though not tried myself) is to attach a strip of carpet to the bottom part of the ramp, such that the tires drive on the carpet first. Ramps can't slide then.

I have found that some rental places rent sandblasting equipment. Those that do, will also carry some abrasives. Not necessarily a lot of selection though. Mine carries black beauty.

There is no hard and fast rule. I don't save batteries that test lower then their "advertised" voltage. That is, less than 9V for a 9V battery, or less than 1.5V for most everything else. For some us
