Think you're right. Was checking on Youtube and they have a triangular sander with three pads on it. Might be the hot ticket.

the jockeying and the gate opening, are too much effort as far as I am concerned..

You sand my floor...and I`ll move your cars.

I have been driving the T, it was behind the GN in the shop...Had to move them both to get the Challenger down to start working on it again....

Excuses excuses. The GN, 4X4, SS...and the gf's Camaro and Cavalier...are all in the driveway. Should see the jockeying that goes on to get the GN out of the garage.

IHADAV8 Playground / Sanding Hardwood Floors

« on: March 25 2012, 04:17:56 PM »

I'm off this week...and I wanna sand the hardwood floor in the spare bedroom. I did the diningroom floor years ago with a drum sander...and it turned out great. I heard there's new sanders out there at the Rentall places that are more forgiving than the drum sanders. Any info would be appreciated.

I swear the worse thing ya' can do is store a vehicle...but anyway. The alternator is noisy on this 1998 Chev 4X4. Is there any way of lubricating the bearing?

General Auto Tech / Pick A Truck Tire For Me

« on: March 19 2012, 10:18:05 AM »

The tow vehicle is in need of new tires...these ones still have decent tread...but they're old. The rims are currently shod with Hercules Terra Tracs...size is 275-55-R 20. I tow the GN with this thing...so what brand of tires would you guys recommend. I bought the truck with the 20" rims and tires on it...so go easy on me.
