I recently bought an air compressor to airate my sprinkler system. I have 1 acre of land. Do I use an air fitting with an 1/4 or 1/2 inlet. Also what size air line do I use.
I might use it for my air impact tools. I was told not to use 1/2 inlet with my impact guns.

I can't find a picture of the trees in my garden, after posting a question relating to edible nuts or not in another new account, I've come back to my actual account to ask more.

Where can I find images of chestnut trees and the nuts that fall from them this time of year?

i have an allotment and i used a part of it for my herbs. unfortunately as my herbs grew they have all mixed in together like a gigantic herbal jungle, and although i've cut them back.i can't quite decide where one plant ends and another begins. can they be left in a herbal mass...or are they better grown singularly with lots of care ??? thanks

I am looking for something called "Fairy Lights" for outdoor use. Technically, they are outdoor christmas lights, but they are made for year round use. I have seen these used in commercial areas and shopping centers to light their trees year round.

I have tried searching different Christmas websites, but all I can find is lights with white or green cords, and I need something with Brown cords.

Does anyone know where to find these?

a neighbor has asked me to help find a spot for a small white spruce she bought. we're near chicago il. u.s. they aren't native around here so i don't know much about them. we live in a well and septic area with a semi high water table. i've read these trees don't do well in this type of soil. she'll only be out $10 if it doesn't grow but i'd like to give it a shot. anyone out there have experience with these? is there anything specific i should know? i've tried some websites but they really don't give much info beside the growing habits.

I need to get my roof done fast! I have had 4 estimates and their all around the same price. The 4th guy came out last night he was more like a sales guy than a contractor.he was trying to sell me on something called self adhering roofing. He said it was better than the tar kind and he could guarantee the labor and material for 25 years! He said that the Good Housekeeping seal would take over the warantee if anything was to happen to the company. he is cheeper than the other 3 guys. The other guys warantee the material for 15 years + but the labor for only 2 years. Is the self adhering roofing something realistic? The guy seemed a little shady only because he was fast talking and really wanted me to commit that same night, but he sounds like a better deal. I did check the BBB and everything was cool except for 1 billing complaint that shows resolved. The linsence expires in DEC. Just want to know if anyone has had this done before. what are somethings to look out for?
