    RAS safety / rebate

    I had an old sears RAS that finally quit running. It did not have a retrofit. Called them up, they sent the the boxes to package the motor and paid the shipping costs to get it to them. Within a couple of weeks, I had my check for $100.

    FREE cabinets 10' upper and lower

    Phil - I could use 10-12' of uppers and lowers for a garage if you have any to come available and are not spoken for. I'm retired so I could demo/pickup at anytime that is convenient for you. Thanks. Evans

    Powermatic table saw

    If anyone is interested in a Powermatic table saw, this one has never been used. I saw it today and I don't think a blade has ever been put on it. It was kept in a climate controlled basement and I didn't see any signs of rust. I'm sure he will let it go for less than $2000. I bought a dust...

    Thinning Latex for HVLP

    I have a fuji and have sprayed only Ben Moore water based paints. I had to thin those paints about 25-33%. The right amount of thinning is determined by the viscosity cup and the manual(which tells you how many seconds it should take for water based paints to flow thru). I used distilled...

    Need HVLP purchase advice

    I bought the Fuji Mini-mite 3 with the gravity feed gun in August, 2009. I had never used anything except a spray can before. It was very easy to learn how to use and it is very easy to go thru the cleanup procedure after each spray session. I have never had a single problem with it even...

    Should router be my next buy?

    I'll throw out one that no one has mentioned. You can find the old craftsman radial arm saws for $50-$100 on CL. Most people are getting rid of them since they take up some room and the table saw does everything a radial arm saw will do(and do it better) except crosscut long boards. When I...

    Can I install a water heater without soldering the pipes?

    I ain't a plumber and I didn't stay at the Holiday Inn Express but I did put in a hot water heater and run some plumbing lines using shark bite connectors and pex. No soldering involved just get the right shark bite connectors for the application and slide them on. You can use any combination...

    Revive your NiCd Batteries?

    Wow, that really made my head spin. Given that I am "electrically challenged" in the first place and in my 61 years I've probably already used up most of my "9 lives", I think I'll just let my old Porter Cable drill die of natural death when the time comes. Maybe this is one skill I don't need...

    Revive your NiCd Batteries?

    I just ran across this procedure that claims you can "revitalize" NiCd batteries that will no longer take a charge. Has anyone ever used/heard of this? Evans http://sup-remodeling.com/index.php?mact=News,cntnt01,detail,0&cntnt01articleid=4&cntnt01origid=15&cntnt01returnid=39 02-18-10...
