I've had my 360 for over 15 yrs. The only problem I've had with it is when I've run over the cord and stripped away the insulation

Very nice indeed, looks to me like you did a fine job on that knot. I like the finish as well. I am sure they will love it.

Wow, I just read this article last weekend, and had not heard of these in the U.S. all these years. I had to get one! Nice beech and carbon steel...

  Should I rebuild batteries or buy a new drill?
Posted by: mission16 - 10-22-2015, 08:05 PM - Forum: Woodworking Power Tools - Replies (14)

The batteries I have sent to MTO have come back better than stock. I would rebuild.

They will run a sale on Woodnet every now and then.

  Problem With A Bosch PS-31

I have had that happen a few times when I did not fully tighten the chuck. Tightened the chuck on the bit each time and it worked fine after that.

  Opinion on Cost for Garage Extension?
Posted by: themoon - 10-22-2015, 03:57 PM - Forum: Home Improvement - Replies (9)

Before I go out and start requesting quotes... about how much do you think this might cost me? Ballpark figure... Wanting to get an idea if this is closer to $15k or $50k. Because if it's the higher end I'm not even going to try.

I want to extend the backside of my "3rd" garage to make it longer. I want to extend it about 14 feet. The width will remain the same at about 9 feet and the height is also 9 feet.

•You would have to cut through the back of my current garage which is brick. There is nothing in this wall and it doesn't really support anything except a small section of the roof.
• You would only have to create 2 new walls. (The 3rd wall is actually already the side of the house.) The "4th" would just be the opening you created. No doors needed.
• The bottom 3 feet would have to be brick to match the house. (darn association) The rest of the height can be stucco hardi-board.
• It would be typical shingles for the roof.
• Foundation would be slab and I guess tied into the existing foundation.
• No electrical, no insulation, no plumbing, no sheet-rock, no windows.

So what do you think I'm about looking at?
