Well, how much air does your sandblaster require ? They vary a good deal. Translate everything to scfm and compare the numbers. Note that compressors are almost always rated in scfm output even when

Sounds like cedar "ship lap" like my last house (built in the '20s) had. When we hired some semi-professionals to paint the old house, they used a pressure washer to blast off most of the old flakin

Kitty litter is only good for soaking up loose oil, it won't do much for oil stains. I've heard that concrete mix works well for getting oil out of concrete, but haven't tried it myself. Last time I

Sounds to me like a bad battery or possibly a bad cable somewhere. Batteries do fail that way sometimes, voltage reads fine but the internal resistance is too high and they will not supply enough cu

FWIW, Pep Boys (west coast auto parts chain) has an "automated" battery tester that apparently doesn't do a proper load test. I took in a battery that I knew to be bad (broken internal connection) t

Depends on whether you believe their specifications, or not. I buy a lot of stuff from HF, but not for measuring ! But any torque wrench should be periodically calibrated, especially the 'clicker' t

That's exactly right, with this adhesive thinner is stronger. (Some epoxies do have a minimum film thickness though.) It's also a good idea to hold some firm pressure on it while it sets up. But don

Ok, the confusion is "scfm" vs "cfm". "scfm" stands for "Standard Cubic Feet per Minute", and as you noted, a "scf" is one cubic foot measured at a specified pressure, temperature and RH. Ignoring t
