Been out of the shop for a while with the prostate cancer. Spent some time out here yesterday and spotted my 18v milwaukee drill luckily on the steel welding table. Sometime over the last couple of weeks the battery melted. The battery is all droopy and one of the release buttons is solid...
As usual it rolled off the bench and as always was vertical blade down when it hit the concrete. Resulting in the blade snapping off at the ball lock groove. The remainder of the blade defies all attempts to remove it. Not any more! Slide the ball lock sleeve back and clamp a vice grip pliers on...
I have a shop vac, 6hp! yeah sure, for what fraction of a second after you turn it on? As per normal with all vacs. the cord is 3' too short. it has 2 front wheels sticking out in front of the round canister, and of course they catch on everything as you tow it around with the hose that kinks...

Just had to replace the belt between the engine and the transaxle on my John Deere mower. What mental midget thought it would be a good idea to have to remove the steering column to do so?
Yesterday I saw a full 337 cu ft oxygen cylinder fall about 5', landed on a concrete floor with a hell of a crash and ringing sounds. Nothing happened. Anyone know how they were tested for safety? I know they are pressure tested about every 10 years or so. Just what sort of abuse will a high...
I live in a Victorian house with a turret that has a stupid steep roof and about a 20" finial on top of it and of course it needs paint. I need to rent a bucket lift to get my fat ass up there to remove it for sandblasting and a paint job. I need to know how high it is so I rent the correct lift...
Just got my new to me 36" Do All bandsaw in the shop, leveled, made a new blade, good to go, no not so much. This was an auction purchase and was not under power when I bought it. The good, it runs dead quiet and smooth and looks to be in great condition. The bad, the shifter seems to be stuck...
After 12 or so years of trouble free use something has failed in the control. when I power it up the computer is dead, no screen, no lights on any of the buttons, no cooling fans. There is 115V at the power supply plug. I figured the power supply failed so I got a new one, no improvement. The...
