    When do you give up on gloves?

    You're overthinking it. Disposable gloves with an emphasis on disposable. One time use. Keep your hands relatively clean. Throw them away.

    Used tool thread

    Our local trash recycling center has an area designated to stuff that you can drop off that may be useful to others. It's like a free swap center and I like to peruse it although I am careful because a lot of it is just junk. I had a small battery charger in my cart on the jungle site when I...

    3 cylinder cars

    My son loves his '87 K75 and it's one of the smoothest bikes that I've ever ridden. It currently has around 65,000 miles and he only rides a couple thousand miles a year so he will never put big miles on it but it's perfect for him.

    Interesting dealership experience.

    We have bought three new cars from our local Toyota dealership in the last three years and one of the things that I liked was their free lifetime state inspections. Well, apparently the dealership changed hands and they aren't honoring that any more. When questioned about it they will do the...

    Waste Oil Heater vs Propane Heater for Garage?

    My situation is similar to yours but I don't expect to heat it when not in use. I have decided to go with old fashioned wood heat in my non-insulated 18x24 shop. My goal isn't to get my shop toasty but just warm enough for me to get stuff done which would be 50+ degrees Fahrenheit when it...

    Do tow truckers not get tickets?

    Things may be different in Houston. How are we supposed to know what region you are referring to?

    2024 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4WD

    I make my old Harley Electra Glide dresser look like a scooter. I might even post a pic if y'all are interested.

    2024 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4WD

    A Tacoma would have been my obvious choice when I bought my Tundra a few months ago. But I am 6'-5" and tip the scale at around 250 pounds and at 62 years of age I was tired of scrunching up into small vehicles. The Tacoma or Maverick would have easily handled my hauling and towing needs but...

    Repairing jacket of outdoor extension cords

    Not a repair but a tip for people who use extension cords in public places. Quality extension cords are expensive so I put electrical tape at a couple of places on my cords because people don't steal cords that they think are damaged.

    Considering a Stihl MS 250 chainsaw

    Dissing on Stihl seems to be in fashion at the moment. When just about every landscaping and logging crew stops using Stihl I will look into it.

    Considering a Stihl MS 250 chainsaw

    I've had the predecessor to the MS250 since the 90's. It has been stellar and got me out of a few post hurricane messes back in Florida. It was my only saw back then and I have several others now but I'll never get rid of my 025. I would buy a new MS250 if I was in the market for one. It's the...

    Two tipping questions - pick up food and curbside pickup

    Tips started out as a way to give little extra for good service. I tip at least 20% and usually more at restaurants when I'm served. My wife and I recently ordered Mexican food to go from a local restaurant and the bill was 44 bucks and change. I drove to pick it up and gave the guy three...

    Two tipping questions - pick up food and curbside pickup

    Tipping is out of control. Big business is purposely underpaying their employees and expecting the customer to make up the difference.
