  1. John,

    Hope you are finally getting some of this nice weather we are getting. It's about time,huh?

    hope I can pick your brain a little bit more....

    Drivers side window reg went out, from what I've read, "pop and drop"....

    Do you have any online recommendations for a place to get the window reg?

      yeah, it's a crap shoot as to quality anymore,huh?

      I also got a call back from a company advertising here in PDX something along the lines of "power window doctor" a moblile outfit that comes to you to do it. Quoted me price of 279,00 for the job. parts and labor.

      I've looked at a utube that makes it eazy peazy, so all I am trying to do is find the cheapest. The utube vid had a link on it to also Purchase a win reg if you needed one. I called the guy this morning (he's in fla) and his charge for the reg was.....45.00 (shipped from fla!) I ;asked him about a warranty and he said  they are from China, "pretty good" and he felt they were reliable for a "few years"...maybe as many as 4! 

      thanks anyway....!

      Looks like some nice weather ahead the next few days...so...looks like a good time to change out a window regulator!

      I never have any luck with the China stuff... 

      Sunday is gonna be oil change day at home, for 2 of the cars, the Harley, the lawn mower and the generator. The generator gets the left-overs from the Mobil 1.

      All that happens AFTER I do some honey-dos of course :)

  2. I've never been a big fan of HF's tools, although I have seen reviews of their sliding compound miter saw by a woodworking mag that said the tool was good but to replace the saw blade with a quality woodworking saw. That was a pretty convincing recommendation as far as I was concerned because woodworking tools can be pretty pricey if you stay with the upper echelon brands. Not me. I am a true "wood butcher"...I'd rather weld my mistakes back together. The polisher might be a good purchase. However, my grandson works at Lowe's and is always scoring "returned" merchandise. A discounted return, plus his employee discount often make the decision an easy one. They have the Porter Cable orbital polisher for $129.00 and "keeping my fingers crossed"...hopefully someone will return one for some stupid reason and he'll swoop it up. I can wait...that purchase may be down in the cost range of the HF. I assume this is the Porter Cable all the detailing guys like?
