What did you buy this week?

[mike0000]

Had to buy a tire for the RTV900, but then couldn’t get the bead to seal, ordered an inner tube which did the trick. That leaves 3 original tires, which are 21 years old. I ripped the sidewall while moving dirt. Kubota wanted $206 for the tire, I found it on line for $156 but then two inner tubes cost $35.
6 ply tires.

We have 2 larger U.S. General toolboxes in the glass shop, the 42"X23" and the 34"X23". We have the 30" 5-drawer toolbox in the stables. Has worked out great for a few tools and horse stuff. The new service cart is for the glass shop, the old Rubbermaid cart goes to the garage.

Bought a set of some less expensive off brand battery adapters got two for less than 15 bucks so my aging fleet of 18 volt dewalt xrp tools can run the newer 20 volt batteries up north. My 18 volt xrp nicad batteries are definitely on there last legs. (A few are from 2006) and were definitely used and abused Read quite a few reviews on all the aftermarket adapters hopefully these are better than DeWalts first gen adapters I bought several yrs ago meaning if I forget and leave a battery in tool it won't kill battery due to a Parasitic discharge like DeWalt original adapters did and hopefully easier to remove a battery and the adapter from the tool itself. I'll post on Amazon stuff that doesn't suck if they live up to my expectations or post on Amazon stuff that does suck if there junk, initial test of a 18 volt xrp sawzalll with adapter is definitely easier attach and detatch adapter tool works as expected with 20 volt battery. In comparison I can't even get the older DeWalt adapter off without using tools to press the tabs off my small hand held DeWalt 18 volt wet dry vac.

Yep, I have the larger one's in my little shop. This is for the tools up at the house.

Putting out 5 watts

Don't you mean using 5 watts. It would be putting out lumens.

A man can never have enough tools......

Picked up my old flip phone and the back fell off. Upon investigation, found that the old battery was swollen up to the point that it popped the back cover. Bought a new battery for $35 and it worked for about one day, then quit charging and the phone quit working. Phone was probably 8 years old or so.

Bought new and improved flip phone for $140. Battery store would not take battery back (probably a wise policy). The new phone has internet access (didn't know any flip phones had that). Didn't necessarily want it, but it was the cheapest phone they had. Supposedly our plan includes two lines so monthly rate stays the same. Will have to see about that....
