I'm strictly a shade-tree mechanic, I'm sure there are better methods. What I use is a straight edge and a feeler gage. For an overall check, Hold the straight edge firmly against the surface to be

Hi all : Having neglected my home far too long, and being a neophyte at painting, I'm looking for some recommendations on paint sprayers. I'd like something that will handle fairly thick latex paint,

I believe there is less potential for error using the more expensive tools, but with care you can come darn close with telescoping hole gauges. The biggest problem is not moving the gauge in the bor

Haven't tried it, but it should work fine. Better than a trickle charger would be a "battery maintainer" that implements a multi-level charge. Basically you don't want to charge the battery all the
