Pictures of the wife or the clasp? I'm thinking it'd be easier to replace the whole clasp - would a "regular" carabineer work? Maybe paint it antique bronze? (Rustoleum sells a bronze colored hammer

If the 50 amp outlet will not fit into a 'standard' outdoor weather proof box try an RV supplier. Campgrounds have 50 amp/30 amp/15 amp outlets for those of us who take it all with us when we get awa

I would use pencil & paper to draw the car & trailer to scale and use that to estimate the length of ramp needed. Then make it longer. Even if it fit this car the next car might be lower, longer, hav

Aluminum can be cut with woodworking tools. Do you have a table saw? Clamp the aluminum to a table saw and raise the blade up to cut the slot. A carbide blade makes a kerf ~ 1/8" wide but it'd have s

I'd like to hear plan B first. I'd wonder if welding the cable would weaken it or cause hard/inflexible areas. Can you add a spacer at the other end? Remove the cable and take it to someone who can p

A two post lift is best for working under a car but not good for storing a car (leaving the suspension drooping). A four post lift is best for storing one above the other. A four post lift with a jac

First thing is to make sure all electrical connections in the battery to starter circuit are 100%. Don't assume they are OK because they look good and feel tight - remove, clean & resecure each one.
