These were my first speakers. I would add fiberglass inside and put felt on the baffle. The screws in the crossover are steel.

You can blame the tree huggers at the EPA for deciding where ethanol free fuel is sold. Here in northern New Jersey I have three choices: buy the fuel in one gallon cans at the local big-box store (very expensive), go to Pennsylvania and buy 89 octane E0 at the pump, (less expensive) or make my own (way cheaper).

You just talked me out of it, my concern was a 1989,4 speed ford festival. With 122k that the recycle yard wants 500 for. They don't even know if it starts, BUT? They say I can try to jump it, I wonder? The specs,say? Replace the timing belt! At 120 k...

@danieldickson7812 it's a pretty easy fix. I just replaced both cylinders. Just have to bleed it like brakes. Only the cheap master cylinder I got only keeps fluid at the low level.

I came across this video because i own the same one i have extra spare brushes that are I guess both universal I guess I would need the sandpaper adapter mine went missing I sold it so its gotten its moneys worth over and over i forgot what year i got this but it was years ago when harbor freight was as good as they are for DIY use especially if it's a tool you're not going to counseling using then its fine for you how wise you are and what you purchase even the stuff they have now that's a decent quality compared it back then you got to be careful with your purchase you may end up paying close to what the name brands are and the quality of the name brands maybe a lot better thats a decision you need to make yourself

"very firmly connected, much better than today's circuit breakers" - odd, since it has the exact same kind of connection as a modern Square D QO breaker.

I have a similar HF light. I removed the battery, cut the wires, drilled a hole to run the wires through and connected them to a 6V rechargeable lantern/flash light battery. I cut a 1/2 gallon milk jug in half put the battery in it and hung it on the wall on my porch beside the light. I thought it would be a test to see if it would work. Well it has been working for at least 2+ years on my front porch so it gets a lot of use. I have another light now and a 12V scooter battery I am going to try next.

A lot of time wasted talking about unrelated things. It is pretty annoying when you're trying to get instructions to do a timing belt and you have to sit and listen to someone talk about their tractor and their windshield washer lines
