The More You Know

  • Garage floors are puddle prone: springtime floods, melting ice from tires, you name it. You can keep that water away from your tools and toys with a dam made of expanding foam.

  • Turn on the sink water and the disposer and drop in a few ice cubes. Flying shards of ice work like a sandblaster inside the disposer.
