      Free Mulch in NWI, Nipsco or ?

      Wow I didn't want to hear that. Much of what I want to use it for is around evergreens. I guess I need to to some searching but can you add any more info?

      Free Mulch in NWI, Nipsco or ?

      I am needing a lot of mulch and does not have to be fancy and pretty. I need a couple of truck loads. Years ago Nipsco dropped off a truckload I am wondering if anyone has contacted them recently about this. Any other sources that would deliver in Lowell /CP/Cedar Lake area?

      Walking?

      For me the answer has always been a mountain bike. I keep one stashed at work. The ride home 60 miles would easily be doable in a day fully laden with gear as I ride often. Problem is getting from downtown Chicago area to where I can feel safe. I have a lot of possible routes none of them...

      Chicago Police Shooting

      It sure looked to me like the first shot had glass flying from the windshield and away from the car

      I don't understand why anyone here would believe anything they saw on CNN or even watch it

      Chicago Police Shooting

      The end of affordable table saws? Probably, if Congress/CPSC gets their way.

      Good thing I don't get my knowledge about these things from watching vids but by using them and changing the module when someone else has tripped them. Probably lots of vids and pics of guys cutting themselves on table saws but I have never done that myself either in 50 plus years of using...

      The end of affordable table saws? Probably, if Congress/CPSC gets their way.

      Can you elaborate on that because I am the guy that has to change out the eighty dollar module when someone trips the saw usually from running a laminate with metal through it. Takes less than 5 minutes. FWIW they have a bypass switch that allows you to cut things that might otherwise...

      1940s era air compressor

      My .001 fwiw. Those old tanks are 2 or 3x as thick as newer ones. Most people shy away from a tank that old, it may be rusted to paper thin on the bottom. Buying new pumps from HF when one fails is very popular for budget minded people, the only value I see in that pump is if you have it and...

      LE types, Approaching a house at night?

      Maybe my post was too vague, I was not against them knocking on my door in a civilized manor, I was offended by the way the officer behaved. I started the thread to find out if other LE felt that his behavior was appropriate. Maybe my anger was misplaced and that is just how cops are taught to...

      LE types, Approaching a house at night?

      They already had parts of the missing vehicle that would have identified the make, model and color. They also knew what type of vehicle it was from witnesses. My motion zones avoid the road so they would not have been activated. I heard them decline accident reenactment over the cops radio

      Battery charger suggestiona

      After reading up on chargers online till my eyes hurt I bought one of these. I have WAY too many batteries and I think this charger has brought a few back that would not hold charge and I have not lost any good ones in the 4 or 5 years since I bought it. I rotate it through the herd when they...

      LE types, Approaching a house at night?

      About a week ago there was a traffic accident down the block from me. My 93 yo mom with dementia and I were both in bed and asleep, not one light on in the house but car in driveway. I am sound asleep and awakened by someone pounding on my front door with the bottom of their fist. I have a...

      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. I have broken more of the adapters than I would like to think of and even had to resort to extreme measures to...

      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...
