It's worth noting that the difference in the numbers gets smaller as moisture content gets lower. Bogydave's example uses very wet wood, so the...
Oven dry. As noted up at the top, oven dry basis is the standard for lumber, plywood and similar products, and those are the products that...
Pretty much. Moisture meters don't measure moisture at all; they measure electrical properties that correlate reasonably well to moisture content....
My wife's Honda has the Maintenance Minder feature, and it is nice. Mine's a few years older, so I'm stuck with charts and calendars. The...
Straying from the original topic, but I just went through the maintenance records for the car I bought over the weekend (a Honda Element) and...

Just so some of you rural flatlanders can feel better about the wear you're getting out of your brakes, consider what it's like if you live in a...
If the screen is dirty, you can clean it very easily with a propane torch. Hold it with pliers and heat it until it glows.

I picked up one of the old DR 7-ton, 2-stage units secondhand a few months ago, from a guy on AS. It's much nicer than my previous electric...
It won't be any more difficult to control, but one could argue that it will be less forgiving of serious error. Safety flows from your...
The 16" Picco bar to fit an 026 is discontinued, but they show up on eBay fairly often. PN 3003 000 6313.
I really like my 026, especially since I swapped in an adjustable oiler from a Pro version. Make sure it has a fully adjustable carburetor. Set...
I wouldn't buy it, but that's not a fair indicator because I prefer cheap saws that need work unless I'm getting an exceptionally good deal on a...

MasterMech , maybe you can tell me what I'm seeing here? This afternoon I decided to figure out what was wrong with a pre-x-torq 372 that has...
