Yes. It didn't sound all that healthy but it probably just needs to be cleaned and greased up.

No estoy de acuerdo. Dono herramientas a muchas personas aquí que las usan.

Thanks for the info! I actually used it for a bit a few days ago and it loosened up well. It's still a bit tighter than average but I can at least turn it with my fingers now. That being said, I think you're right and that ring might still need to be pushed a bit further in.

​@@floridarusticrepairsRight on man! Let us know how that turns out👍

@@cblack1863 It's fine now. I gave it a few minutes use and it loosened up. now you can easily spin it with your fingers.

Thanks! Yes, I got some real value in that one.

Yes, but that would have made a boring video. :)

Thanks! Yes, that brass mallet is very cool! I kept it from one of my tool box hauls.

Other than the Snap ON SL-710 can't find any other text on it so my guess would be late 1960's. From what I just saw in a photo on line some of these have text written on the cover plate but mine is blank so your guess is as good as mine.

On my 710 I inherited from my father it’s a letter between the on and the off marking! Thanks for responding.

@@TWOTONEFARM Thanks. Weird. This one had nothing there either.

Interesting. Thanks for the heads up on that! I don't think I hit them all that hard but it's a good thing to keep in mind for sure. Maybe I should have had some wood in between them?

The force he used in this video isn't an issue.

@@shannonelliott6116 I wouldn't have thought so either. Thanks.

Valid point but I think the fact that I wire it for a plug would throw people off if I weren't specific about that.

Maybe, but most of the time was assembling a ceiling fan. Should not have spent so much time on the build and gone straight to your topic.

Thanks! I have to admit, it has a very high quality feel to it now.

Yes! It's unfortunate how people want a fortune for a Craftsman rebuild kit now. I've got a 3/8th drive that's down but it's not worth it to rebuild.

Funny you say that!. Now that I'm setting up the workshop I'll be putting some of these tools on display. I unwrapped the porter Cable yesterday and was going to use it but I instead used the heavy 1950's Milwaukee.

@@floridarusticrepairs My 146A* has had regular duty this summer on some wood siding projects around the neighbourhood and never missed a beat. I have several other 146As taking the summer off. 😁

There's something fascinating about old ratchets. The older the more interesting. Hopefully you'll be able to find a rebuild kit but if not, I've had luck just taking them apart and cleaning them. Unless it's truly broken inside you can usually get them working again.

Yes, it took me several years of saving to be able to afford it.

lol! I had to look to see what you meant. Hilarious.

Thanks and a big "Hello" from the colonies. I'll upload some video of the inside work soon.

@@floridarusticrepairs Looking forward to it!

Glad it was helpful!

That's great! My building supplier would not even begin their six week lead time countdown until a week after the concrete was in.

Thanks! Yes, good advice! Especially when using a hole saw or something like that, these drills can fracture your wrist easily. I don't recall if I found that handle in the box or not but I do have a spare.

Thank you! It was worth it in the long run.

Thanks! It's funny that you mention communication. After the third time I was told that it would be six more weeks by the contractor I told him that he is very weak at managing expectations. Had he simply said that it'll take 5 months I would have been fine with it. With every delay I only discovered things were stalled after I called for a status having not heard anything for a while.

Good point! I tried for a clause with monetization but the best they'd give me was a timeline which they failed miserably with. It's on me if I want to pursue it further but I think I won't bother.

Thanks! My friend Tyron does this sort of thing for a living but he admitted that was a better option.

Thanks for the info! I was thinking we were screwing it up as well. :)

Thanks! That's interesting info. I often debate whether I should be adding a grounded cord when I do these sort of restorations but I think these mixers have a relatively isolated body so risk of shock is low. I wonder if by adding the ground you're sending a bit of leakage into the GFI?

Thanks! I will be doing a shop tour once I get everything set up and sorted out. When I got all of the toolboxes in one room even I was surprised by how many there were. :) Time to get some of them donated out.

Thanks! I'll give it a shot.

Thanks! Even before I started the process with this builder I had prepared myself for some difficulties and delays. I got more than I had imagined but by keeping the end goal in sight I was able to keep "mostly" calm in dealing with everyone.

Thanks! Mugsy is always around when I'm working on things outside.

Thanks for the info. That's interesting. Even at it's best I can't see that happening with mine. Maybe if I had the permits before I signed the contract (3 weeks saved) and had the concrete lined up before the contract with the builder (4 weeks saved) it may have been possible. My town made it difficult for me to permit this myself and after my first failed attempt coordinating that with a builder I handed it off.

As long as you estimate a lot of extra time you'll keep your stress level down.

Thanks for the info! I like that ziptie idea. I may have to steal it. :)

Thanks! I went a little crazy with the paneling inside, but it was worth it.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks for the info! That makes a lot of sense. It was summer in Florida and very humid so maybe it took longer to fully set.

Glad you found it helpful! I just had the exact window go on my 2004 Avalanche. Same process but cleaner video because I wasn't in a rush. :)

Thanks! i was fortunate to have my lot already level. Concrete has gotten very expensive over the last ten years.

Thanks! I had looked into building a wood structure but it would have cost me about 25% more and I was already stretched. Having a second floor would be great.

Wow! Much bigger than mine, I'm sure. 😀

Thanks! yes, I'm grateful to have it. Changed the water pump in my truck last night in well lit air conditioned comfort.

There's a lot of them! My main box which I've had for 40 years is still in my garage. Soon to be coming over.

Thanks for the info! Fortunately, I had zoning cleared up by the time I got to contract. Did you go with closed cell foam insulation? I'm curious as to your opinions on that.

@@floridarusticrepairs I had a roof top vent to allow heat to rise and go out. The insulation was kinda old school. Had insulation towards the metal. And heavy plastic on inside. Worked well. For my warehouse. Spray insulation was not offered. I do like the way yours was done.

@@terryeustice5399 The extra window I wanted was actually so I could put a solar fan up there to vent. it didn't work out but the foam really does an excellent job.

lol! Maybe sometimes when the weather is nice. :)

The cost of assembly is included. The only thing I caught when quoting builders is that some would say that you needed to provide a crane on site. Anytime i argued that point they immediately backed off and included it. Since my building height is only 15' at peak, a crane wasn't necessary anyway which makes me wonder why they tried to add that cost.

It's funny, I was changing the water pump in my truck last night and when I went outside there were three sitting there waiting for me to come out. If I leave the garage door open they'll venture in but as of now they're wary of it.

@@floridarusticrepairs you will work out. They improvise, adapt and overcome.

Thanks for the reply. I hope you found it useful info.
