Hardware Near Me

I have over a dozen 30gal Sterlite Tuff1 bins ranging from 30-80lbs and stacked 4 or 5 high and a lot of bottom ones collapsed after months. What are large some large bins that can hold up to this?

I have a storage unit because too many hobbies and too little space. A lot of my bins aren't cutting it. Heavier stuff was towards bottom but some were only 2nd from the bottom but I don't think it would have batter as ones 2 or 3 high were having this issue too. I don't have a Costco subscription but I could probably save a lot of money if I had one so I might if the solution is there. Hardware...

Blast Zone Big Ol' Bouncer Review: 6 Months of Real-World Testing (2025)

# Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4.8/5) **Bottom Line:** After testing dozens of bounce houses over the years, the Blast Zone Big Ol' Bouncer stands out as the best overall choice for families with elementary-age children. Yes, it costs more than budget competitors ($400-500 vs. $200-300), but the commercial-grade construction, industry-leading 2-year warranty, and genuine durability justify every doll...

Has HR weaponized sexual harassment policy to discriminate against you in the workplace?

Just like the title says. Has HR weaponized sexual harassment policy to discriminate against you in the workplace. Here is my story. I was working as a salesperson at a hardware store last year. I wasn't openly non-binary, but I wasn't exactly hiding it either. I was being rather flamboyant to be honest, and as the androgyne subtype, that involved talking fashion, outfits, and accessories with my...

Sourcing gas cheaply in Europe?

Having to buy gas bottles at 12€-15€ a piece that barely last a single weekend quickly adds up, and had me thinking on how to find a source of gas for my GBBRs in a cheaper way. Afaik, in the USA some players can buy/fill 5 gallon propane tanks on Wallmart for essentially peanuts and use those for their GBRRs. Has anyone achieved something similar in Europe? What's your setup? (if relevant...

Need help with old American Standard running

We just bought this house and it has pretty old American Standard F4049 toilets. This one kept running so we replaced the fill valve. Now it only runs for about a second once every 3 minutes or so, I figure it must be the flapper leaking very slightly. Do we have to replace with this old style flapper - I saw online that it’s called an actuator? I don’t even see these for sale at the hardware ...

In USA, looking for 3/8" PT fittings for 6mm tubing

I'm working on an engineering project, and we have a pneumatic cylinder which has 3/8" PT fittings, and we want to connect 6mm tubing to these ports.

Cat missing from a Lowe’s hardware store in Richmond, VA, USA found after being lost for weeks

Old Kohler USA Hot & Cold Stem Cartridges

Hello, We moved into our new home about a week ago, it was built in 1949. The owner was an elderly lady so some simple repairs hadn't been done to the home. We had to replace the shower knob cartridge, etc. The faucet in the bathroom has barely been putting out any water. At first I thought maybe it was the aerator but after pulling the hit and cold stem cartridges I'm pretty positive that's ...

Moss & Gamble file, likely from the late 1800's.

One side says MOSS & GAMBLE, and the other says WARRANTED CAST STEEL, as best I can make out. I was working in an old family house here in Virginia (USA) that was built in the late 1800's. I removed the baseboard at the bottom of a wood-lathe/plaster covered frame wall. This file was in the wall cavity, partially encased in the cement dribbles from when that wall was plastered. I have no ...

This should be in everyone's soil mix

I never make a soil mix with adding up to 30% perlite. Its cheap, I buy for hydroponic stores in bulk for about $50aud for 100lt. Hardware stores tend to be a rip off and charge this price for 5lt. Perlite helps massively with water retention, drainage and aeration. Adding this to your mix can cut your watering needs in half if not more.

Jb Perks lock blue?

I’m looking to put a red dot on my Glock, I’ve always used blue Loctite, but the local hardware store didn’t have any. But they had this. Have you ever used it for mounting optics? Is it too “ permanent “ and I should really use the Loctite? Because I’ve heard that’s best.
