    It’s time to “put up” or “shut up”…………...

    I know what you mean. Every time I see the wheels start turning I think "this will be the one" where communication unexpectedly falls silent at some point. I was expecting that anchoring wall to pull away from bottom plate and WOOOSSSSH,,,,,,,,,quick trip downstairs without trolly wheels...

    Need ides for scarifying my rocky yard

    Add Electric Fan for Radiator

    He said condenser is clean. But if you talk to ac techs and they will tell you they would like $1 for each time they found dirty coils after being assured they have already been cleaned.

    BX2200 main lights not working after shortcut

    Well if you don't have a multi-meter, now's the time to get one and let us teach you how to use it. Seriously, the best of troubleshooters are in the dark without a meter.

    Leather Work Gloves

    Leather gloves shrink and become too small except the grey fuzzy ones like someone posted earlier that fall apart. Any tricks to stretch them so they fit again?

    Hog stricks cause more death and injury around here even though more deer are hit. A 50 pound pig can cause lose of control when it gos beneath car or wheel, a 200 pounder is bad news for any vehicle.
