Thread: Hello out there...
Post: RE: Hello out there...
I've been stocking up on Butternut & Black Walnut 16/4 blanks.
They are getting too darn expensive to pass up the deals I got recently.
I plan on making peppermills from them. |

Post: Is there a Walnut blight or something?
Lately I have noticed the price of Black Walnut has gone thru the fricking roof.
Just 2 years ago, I was paying $3 a board foot for it, now my guy wants $12.50 a board foot.

Thread: Anyone use a Dust Deputy?
Post: RE: Anyone use a Dust Deputy?
Thanks for the replies guys. I found the invoice from when I bought the system a long time ago.
I paid $49 for a 40' hose to go with it, and today, the same hose is $127.
Talk about price increases.... |

Thread: Need reco's for toilet fill valve replacements
Post: RE: Need reco's for toilet fill valve replacements
I used Korky valves when I fixed our toilets about 8 years ago.
They are still going strong.
Make sure you replace the flapper while you're at it. |

Simple Green or Tide powder mixed with Dawn dish detergent.
Allow to soak for awhile, hit it with a stiff brush & rinse off.
Or power wash it. |
