Thumbs up

Didn't do much Black Friday Shopping. But I did grab this. This rechargeable power Screwdriver will come in handy.

One of the few things I can say I was late to the game to buy. Very useful.

I also tried it previously on our master bath shower after it was used and that didn’t go as well. The cleaner that comes with it didn’t really clean the glass sufficiently. I’m going to try it again but first after cleaning it with something else. The glass has to be spotless or you will seal in whatever is there.

So, definitely recommend for brand new glass (which just requires regular glass cleaner) but if you have any hard water or soap stains in existing glass, you’ll need to work a little harder to get it clean first. I think it can also be used on auto glass but haven’t tried that.

That is standard practice.

I picked up a home theater receiver for the basement setup. The wife has a 55" tv for working out and riding the stationary or running on the dreadmill. The problem is she runs on the treadmill about 12 feet from the tv and the surround speakers are right next to here so it needs power and for the speakers to be in 5 channel stereo mode (grrr) for her to hear. I'd rather she use earbuds over BT but she doesn't want to. I still consider Sony the four letter word in audio, but it's good enough for the task.

I also got a bottle of Rumchata, but the festive peppermint stuff.

Yeah, but the pulley is 25% lighter than the OEM pulley, which will prevent the dryer from overheating

Some new garage gear.

Also, check out Northern Tool if you need some overhead garage storage. They've got a heck of a deal running on the metal Gladiator units. I think MSRP is $100 for the 2x4 size. I picked up a pile of them at $25/ea from NT. Going to mount a bunch in a row and grab some bins from Walmart.

Outfitting a new garage or finally outfitting an old garage?

Both kinda? This is for the oversized three car attached garage for our “newly” built home we designed and moved into earlier this year. “Real” lift will be going into something with a bit more concrete

As with all tools, it’s an over time accumulation. Existing jack and stands were junk. I had THREE people joke as I was walking out of Harbor Freight with two buggies, “Starting up a new shop??” The people just get increasingly nicer the further you get from Atlanta…
