  1. I have an lboxx 3d with two drawers, One for my jigsaw, circular saw, and one that came as a starter pack with two batteries and a charger. I use that one for my kreg jig, orbital sander, and grinder.
  2. Good deals on kobalt mechanics sets Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

  4. I just thought of that after I replied. No it isn't. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  5. It's 698 now on the website. I would go back and have them look it up. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  6. Question...I got a strip of pad with sticky on the back. What is that used for? To attach the top pads to keep from moving?Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  7. It has a long hinge but it is riveted in. I wouldn't want to take them out. Thanks everyone. Milwaukee def did right with this box. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  8. Pick those up at Menard's? I was looking at the 16 gauge but felt it lacked features compared to Masterforce. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  9. This week Menard's has their 11% off sale. I printed off a rebate match form and am going to send it in. Hopefully it will be accepted which would make this box an even more of a killer deal after the rebate. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  10. From what I remember it looked to have a long piano hinge held on my bolts. I'll take a closer look in a few hours when I go on lunch and get back to you. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  11. Went to HD and they had gotten two sets in that day as well as a bottom that was already sold. Decided to bite the bullet at the price of $698 plus tax. Got it loaded up and took it home. Took out the bottom box last night and got the rest set up today. Still transitioning stuff from the old box to the new one. At work now so I will finish it up later. I'm sure I'll be moving stuff around multiple times before I'm happy with it. It is a big step up from my Craftsman box. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  12. Will do. I go on lunch here in a bit. Unboxed the bottom so far. The castors are BEEFY!Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  13. Thanks again. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  14. Thanks! The big 30 is on Wednesday and had to get something special [emoji16] Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  15. Picked one of these up today. Haven't gotten a chance to set it up yet. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  16. I believe it is everything not on sale or already discounted. Not sure it would work though if there is no Menard's in your area. Just ask at checkout for the rebate form. Some have said they will just deduct it right then. I only did it earlier this month and sent in the form. Haven't heard anything yet.
  17. thanks. I know brick is less maintenance over time but I like the look of mulch better. Plus if I have to ever change anything the mulch is much easier to deal with than the rock.
  18. Menard's is running their 11% off sale again. Will be taking a trip to HD tomorrow to see if any boxes are in stock. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  19. Looking good. I don't do electrical work. Lol Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  20. It's "old navy" from Benjamin Moore. It is a true navy and not purple. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  21. I think I would paint my house two times over as long as I never had to do the brick work again!Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  22. Thanks guys! Next year we are going to focus on the actual landscape. I had the weeds under control last year and it kinda took a backseat this year. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  23. Thanks! My neighbors were skeptical of the paint color at first. We painted the doors on our shed to get an idea of what it would look like with the white. The all love it and I constantly get compliments on it. Funny is now there are two other houses within two blocks of me painted either a blue or sided in a blue tone.
  24. With the deck and landscaping looking good I decided I wanted to paint the house. Hail damaged our roof so a replacement was in the future. The most regarded roofing company in the area was 3 months out and I decided it would allow me enough time to paint the house. I initially thought about painting it next year but with a new roof coming I figured I could cut my prep time down by not worrying about taping or caring if paint got on the roof. After a few different shades we decided on Benjamin Moore colors "Old Navy" and "Bright Yellow" with the trim white for the " Pop" factor. I purchased Sherwin Williams paint with their 40% off sale in July and had it tinted the day before I started to paint. I spent all of August prepping the house. Power washed, scrubbed, scraped, primed, replacement of 100' of ceder siding, and replaced brick molding around the garage doors and side garage door. At the start of September i began to paint. Right off the bat I had problems with my sprayer and wasted a whole weekend. I finally got it figured out and was on my way. With the blue it took 3 coats of paint. During painting, I replaced our front door, put in a new storm door, replaced the lighting, took out our pole light, built a floating number plaque, and I built a wood rack. I finally finished up the painting last week and couldn't be happier with how it turned out! My neighbor was a painter for over 50 years and is very pleased with it. With the paint done last week our roof was set to be replaced this week. They started on Tuesday and immediately ran into plywood problems. We had a leak in our sunroom which I knew would need repaired but they found moisture/mold on a total of 52 boards which all would be replaced. Knowing I basically have a brand new roof I am not upset a out it. The roof had a brown tone in it before and it matched much better now being a gray tone. Hope you enjoyed the pics! It was a great learning experience as I did everything myself besides the deck.
