    Getting water to the dig after the rain stops

    Is there a reason you can't use cheaper hose in a smaller diameter? If time is not an issue just run something smaller but higher pressure rated to get you the full distance in ine shot? Alternatively you could just run one lenght of line to a midpoint and fill up a reservoir, then pack your...

    Getting water to the dig after the rain stops

    Depending on how high you want to go, you may be able to daisy chain the pumps into a surge tank setup with buckets. That way your pumps only see like 10ft of head at each step instead of trying to pump the full 50ft or whatever. You may also look into using a diaphragm pump or something with a...

    Automotive painting

    Is there an automotive equivalent of mixing fiberglass filler? For hull work, I have used epoxy resin mixed with microballoons, talc, cabosil, chopped strands, etc to get the strength flexobility, or consistently I wanted for different things. Sean

    Garage Tools

    Nah. I have had a couple of close calls and keep them on too. Even with a flap wheel, I don't want abrasive and spark in my face. Sean

    Best locker option

    I really like the torsen style gear type limited slips. I have a truetrac in the back of my truck and its great. Its not for rock crawling but it has always done great on the street and in the sand. I have a trd clutch type lsd in the front and its really stiff. Feels almost locked and you can...

    Back to a Pretender? Goal Contender.

    If you are gonna cut the buckets for 8s on stock length arms, you are probably going to have to put the buckets back or make new mounts for them when you go lt. I guess you could do spacers or extended rod ends too but that seems like a lot of work. Sean

    Tools, parts and tricks

    I used to get the emails for the free 10 packs of flap discs from benchmark all the time. I think I only paid for one pack or something in the last 10 years. Sean

    Moving soon, potential garage has unfinished walls.

    Ok sweet. Your joists and rafters look good in black. I may steal that idea. I have the same airline setup at my current house and it is great. I think I am going to try and stick my parts washer and compressor outside. I may see if I can get my blast cabinet out there too so its less dusty...
