Since you've already got the lowes unit, at 50% off a good buy I might add, I can't change your mind. However I have been very, VERY pleased with a ridid vacuum I bought a couple of months ago.

2 years ago I got a Hitachi 18v hammer drill (Lithium Ion) with a impact driver. I have been very, very pleased with both of them. Bought off Amazon while on sale.

I agree with 2cool. When drilling, almost everyone starts TOO FAST. Just remember speed kills. Slow the bit down, steady feed pressure so that you are pulling a "string" of metal. A good bit will do it on both sides. You can hand sharpen a bit with a good file, if you don't have a grinder. If...

I put a set of Harmony tires on my 2005 Corolla at 82K miles. Just cruised past 160K with the same set, they look like about half the tread is worn. Only rotated them twice. I am VERY pleased with them. Great in the rain too!

Originally Posted By: grampi I recently went to my local Advance Auto store to see if they had any motor oil on sale, since I use whatever's the cheapest these days. They didn't have one brand of oil, not even their generic store brand, that was less than $4.99 a qt. I never thought I'd see the...

I sell industrial maintenance supplies for a living. I call on a large number of mechanics and maintenance shops. IR tools are common at these shops, the Titanium line is popular (I've sold a few). I see ALL of the brands listed here by other posters and I can say truthfully that I do not hear...

Most of the knives made in China, Pakistan, or India are worthless junk. You'll be lucky to get a year out of one, especially if you actually use it for more than showing. I suggest saving your money and upping the budget to $50. You can find a lot of good knives made here in the USA, or in...

+1 to you Pop Rivit. The best way to get ahead in life is to treat everyone fairly (the old golden rule). If your boss wants you to lie and cheat, time to get a new boss.

I have to ask myself this type of question every time I need to "retire" my work vehicle. I'm an outside salesperson by trade and I drive about 40K miles per year. I usually buy a used vehicle in the best condition I can find with the least mileage. I start looking well in advance of my...

My 98 camry has 266K miles, perfectly functioning AC never been charged. In fact, I just now changed the AT fluid (only because I felt guilty, it was shifting fine) While Ford has gotten better, and I may consider them on my next vehicle it will be a LONG time before I own another GM...

Two different guns... Aluminum Complex in the general purpose gun, and for more demanding applications Calcium Sulfonate.

Silicone die-electric grease works well for this application
