    Commercial grade, large mowers with gasoline or diesel engines are not inexpensive, either...and you have to feed them regularly.

    Sheet goods specialty businesses will likely have better pricing than lumber yards...that's been my experience for sure. A lot of the yards likely source from them and then do the markups. Even has a...

    I think there's good justification for a hybrid approach in certain situations, so it's nice that there can be adaptability. I can see where, say, using spiral out from a big collector outside of the...

    When I need something that's more "economy", I order Yonico off of Amazon. I've had zero issues with them. I actually just received a .75" beading cutter today that will likely be a "one project"...

    While I'm using the Blastgate Company version of the quick connect because it's (slightly) more affordable than Nordfab brand, the scenario is the same. You can easily adapt to spiral or snap lock...

    Hah! Dan is the cook in that relationship. He did that to earn money while in school. It's something we both share as I'm the cook here, too.

    You will find that for battery operated landscaping tools for "serious" work/big jobs, you'll be better served by the brands that are focused on that, like Stihl, Husqvarna, EGO, etc. The batteries...

    Stihl, too. My tree guy is using them now for all the work they are capable of including while climbing and only pulls out the big gas saw for cuts where it's necessary.

    You are trying to fight a battle that's going to be extremely difficult to win. "Logs" don't really dry down equally, so you are always likely going to have a moisture imbalance even if you waited...

    Bill, I have never, ever seen a "grass board" use on any kind of fence in this area and that's living here since the last year of the 70s. It must be a regional thing.
