Maybe you americans call strimmers bushwackers?? Anyway I am looking for something other than a strimmer that is petrol powered and not professional. many thanks.
a professional petrol powered honda edger!
yeah i’m looking for a petrol powered edger. Any ideas on a professional one?

If you mean the edges along sidewalks, driveways or walls, yes. There are many engine powered lawn edgers available.

The mini split ac’s come precharged with freon. this allows one to just install the unit, and connect the lines. it states to purge, or evacuate the system after the lines are connected. the only air would be from the actual 15′ lines that were connected. will the ac run good without be purged or evacuated? this ductless system is new, and ive heard people installing them without fancy equipment. id like to know if i can get good cooling, without the hvac tools. what do you guys think?

Mini-splits are expensive. You’re taking a big gamble here, and it may not work out for you. Mere molecules of water and dirt can cause big problems with the compressor and the metering device for the refrigerant. Why not find someone in the biz, and offer them a few dollars to evacuate the lines and hook up your equipment professionally? If something goes sour, and the lines were not evacuated, you may be hard-pressed to get the manufacturer to honor a warranty claim. Better safe than sorry!

Could anybody point me in the right direction with regards to building a workshop. I would like to know which tools I should buy first e.g. a table saw, band saw, etc.

Well, this will depend a lot on exactly what you intend to do. And, knowing exactly what you are going to do is not possible, because once you try something else, you need tools for it. For a general wood shop, Id suggest these, in this order,a) 10 inch Tablesaw, contractor style, or cabinet saw, NOT a benchtop model.b) Equally important is a good quality blade for that saw, a combination blade will get you started, look to a freud or forrest blade.c) A miter saw, sliding compound miter is best, check out the Makita LS1013, or Hitachi also makes a good one (and again, another good blade is important). d)Router with 1/2 inch collet, bits to go with it,and if you can afford it, a table mounted router is priceless. e) a bandsaw, Jet Delta and Grizzly all make good ones in the 14 inch models.f)A planer (I have a Ridgid 13 inch planer, its a workhorse).g) a drillpress.h)a good scroll saw, stay away from any of the ones under $200, I really like Dewalt.i)a wood lathe, youll be amazed at the fun this tool will be. j) a disc sander, 12 inch would be nice, and if you can afford it, a combination belt/disc sander is even better,k) a jointer, stay away from benchtop models.l)a thickness sander, the Performax is great. Many of those tools need some type of dust collection, so a dust collector should be one of the top priorities as well.
Some necessities I didnt mention are equally important, like clamps, you never can have to many of them,a good square, straightedge,and tape measure, hand tools like drills, sanders,etc. Most important…. a pair of safety glasses, good old fashioned common sense, and all the other necessary PPE.

I want to know "discount rate" of central banks.

Central banks affect Monetary Policy by using one of the following tools:

Discount rates. Central banks can directly affect interest rates (aka discount rates), by changing their benchmark rates. For example, the US Fed changes their overnight rates. A "discount rate" is the rate set for coupon-less bonds like T-Bills. Since they have no coupons, interest is inferred by issuing them at a discount and realized when the bond is either sold or matures at face value (US$1,000).
Reserve requirements. Require banks to hold more cash reserves, which in turn prevents it from being lent out again, which then reduces the money supply through the bank’s ability to leverage their equity base.
Money supply. Buy and issue bonds – which alternatively supplies/sucks up money supply in market.

I am planning on installing a new sound system in to my 2004 Crossfire. So i need to by the tools to remover the clips and not mess up my intior…

Usually you just give it a tug and risk breaking a couple of the clips, but they are cheap so not to worry

wrenches? hatchet etc.

try these www.snapon.com www.matcotools.com Snap-on and Matco tools are the primary providers for professional mechanics tools. Also, Cornwell tools, and even Craftsman, but I reccomend the first two.

For making a checkered pattern on guns, is the non-electric method recommended over the electric method for any reason? What about machines that automatically checker wood in a pre-set pattern (as large companies would have)?

When done properly, there’s not much difference between the two. Cut checkering is cut checkering.

Now, cut checkering compared to pressed is an entirely different thing. Cut checkering gives an improved grip and looks good as well as adding artistic input. Pressed checkering, which too damned many manufacturers are using these days, is next to crap. On a good note, more and more manufacturers are moving back to cut checkering to improve quality.

I have a 7.5 hp compressor and I’m just about to buy an air regulator, filer, and oiler. I use a lot of pneumatic tools that require oil but I also paint cars. Would I be able to use the same hose that has the oiler hooked up to it to paint my cars? I think the oil in the hose would get into the paint. Do I need to change hoses every time?

you will have to change the hose and disconect the oiler..it will contaminate the automotive paint as you spray it

I want to buy a plunge router from Big Lots but it’s $30 and I wanted to know if anyone’s had experience with their tools. It’s made by Pro Source and I’m going to get a set for $89 that has a circular saw (5 3/8"), a jigsaw, a reciprocating saw, a light and a power drill. They are all cordless and it comes with two batteries. Is this a good deal too? Are these going to fall apart or are they good deals?

Big Lots are stores that have clearance items from a lot of different stores.If it is a name brand and you get your monies worth why not?They are all the same,the store is different.

im trying to handcraft some earings (plugs) and for the time being i dont want to use any power tools. does anyone have any advice on how to get a precise rounded piece of wood? ive been using compases, rulers, squares, files, sandpaper, all sorts of things and the results have been frusterating.

even in the days of old lathes were used to make dowels. they were foot powered lathes. you could try a spoke shave but i doubt that you would be happy with the results.
