      Electric impact socket adapters

      You guys are making this so complicated. Look at the size of the fastener you want to turn. Look at the socket necessary to turn it. Look at the diameter of that little 1/4 inch hex shaft If something is grossly out of scale to the others than unless it is made of some ungodly expensive...

      Electric impact socket adapters

      Yea the wrong tool for the job, I have the Milwaukee compact 3/8 square drive impact but more often than not I put an adapter in my fuel hydraulic drive and throw on a 3/8 adapter.

      LED Light Bulbs

      I bought Sylvania dimmable LED cans with adjustable color temperature from menards. Bought matching Leviton switches. When turning the lights on, 12 of them they all start at different times and some flicker on startup for about 2 seconds it looks like a fireworks show. None have burned out...

      Learning to Weld

      Years ago at work we had a big job making some giant cages to be used in a photo shoot. Most of it was welding 1/2 or 3/4 square tubing to a flat plate 1/4 thick. We were short on experienced welders so a half dozen carpenters were given a quick walk through and went about "welding" these...

      DEI Illinois Mayor Gone Wild

      My cousins grew up in Dolton, in the 60's and 70's it was as perfect a place to grow up as Mayberry. We spent days in open fields riding our bikes and shooting BB guns. It was growing like crazy as the fields were being built into subdivisions. Like a lightswitch my Aunt and Uncle had to get...
