    Sheeting a (faux) Tin Roof Straight

    As far as the screws to hold it down goes, I can always get new ones and throw them in some muriatic acid for a few minutes to rust them up.

    Sheeting a (faux) Tin Roof Straight

    Yes I meant to make them straight. at the outside visible edge. I feel like when cutting pieces, they can easily get crooked because they all will be short pieces cut to each spot. I got a small trailer load of the tin where my boss had a barn torn down. Alot of it is crinkled up like that but I...

    Sheeting a (faux) Tin Roof Straight

    You mean the board that the tin sits directly on? Why? So it will screw down flat as possible? I can do that but I'm more concerned about cutting it so It is straight as I place them across. EDIT: I have 3 young kids (6 , 4 , 6 months), a wife, a dog, a 110 year old Studebaker, a 1974 IH 200...

    Sheeting a (faux) Tin Roof Straight

    How would a guy go about putting up used sheets of 10 on this fake overhang that I’m building in my shop. I’m making it so it looks like the outside of an old store. I’m using old, used tin and cutting it with the grinder in the picture. I’m not a framer, so I know that my woodworking is...

    I'm going to look into a gearwrench one. Anyone tried the Quinn from Harbor Freight?? I'm not using it everyday for my Job so spending $300 on one doesn't make me comfortable, especially when I have alot of other stuff I need to buy.

    Best Budget Friendly Digital Torque Wrench

    I just don't understand why the click type are so hard to read. They are all made the same. You'd think someone would add a painted background to the numbers haha. That is the only reason for wanting digital.

    Best Budget Friendly Digital Torque Wrench

    I figured I would buy the Harbor Freight ICON (top tier brand) 1/2 in drive Digital torque wrench. I want a digital one. That thing was $380.00 !!! No way was I about to spend that much on a torque wrench from HARBOR FREIGHT and it not be any good! They had a Quinn model at around $170.00 but...

    D-17 Series 3 Power Director Not Hooked up?

    Sounds good. Not following all the way since I'm not familiar with them and not currently looking at it but when I get around it I will read again and I'm sure I'll see. Glad there is a side cover rather than having to split to find out. You can't get new rebuild parts for them??
