    Simple video of one of the lights. It'll be nice once all done and get to sit out by it.

    If they both are compatible with your panel either one is fine.

    Cleaned 10 gallons of nasty silty stuff, flakey accumulation, and construction debris out of the sump pump pit today. Not sure how that pump was even still working buried like that. Feels good, like changing your oil. Prepped the lid for radon pipe, and water powered backup pump soon to be installed too.

    Not today, but over the weekend I finally finished one of my attempts at woodworking. I combined some log holders and made a tabletop to put on top. Nothing too extensive, but I am very inexperienced so I kept it simple.

    Not sure if this is the right area for this, but there is a lot of experience here.
    Does anyone have a recommendation for a grease gun that isn’t the worst? Are the battery powered ones any less messy or a pain in the ass to use?

    i personally have a blue hawk grease gun. i don't have a lot that needs it, so i have no real need for a fancy or battery powered one.

    I bought this one a little while ago, it's pretty much the style now being sold as 3,000 different brands on Amazon. Somewhat of a bitch to get primed up, but after that worked quite well running a few tubes of grease through my travel trailer bearings.

    It’s the coupler that makes it easy imo. I have several guns and adapters due to tight spaces. This is a winner. Worth it to have at least one. 061DFB99-C0A2-42B1-ADB4-D3602FC9ACB3.jpg

    Yeah it definitely gets old trying to wobble and swivel it off in a tight space that is usually super sharp in all directions!

    Installed a new garage door opener. Actually finished it up yesterday but added the outside keypad today. Also can control it with an app on my phone. Pretty slick.

    I needed some light over by my grill and smoker's new home, so I bent some conduit, pulled some wire, and fabed up a light from an $8 Walmart Wok.
