I was recently reviewing some of the “Get a Hand” posts from the DaveZillion community on the “DaveZillion.com” site. I came across a post where a person was requesting some help with some day to day activities and some advice because he had recently blown the engine on his car. Well, within the post he goes [...]
I was with one of my neighbors recently helping him move a desk into his daughter’s room. While in the room I noticed a tall floor lamp that was laying on the floor in two pieces. I asked my neighbor what had happened to the lamp and his response was exactly what I didn’t want [...]
Let’s face it, in today’s day and age we live in a culture with a throw away mentality. So many of us pick up a new cell phone every year, a new computer every two years, a new barbeque grill every three years, and we are lucky if we keep a car for more than four years [...]
Pressure Washer
The Tool of the Week that I am featuring this week is the Pressure Washer, also known as a “Power Washer”. A Pressure Washer can be one of the most useful tools you can ever own. There are countless uses for the Pressure Washer. Whether or not you own your own home, own a condominium, rent a home, or live in an apartment there is usually some task that needs to be completed that could be made easier and end with better results, when utilizing a Pressure Washer. There are two different types of Pressure Washers. The Pressure Washer can be found in either an electric model or gas powered model with a wide range of the amount of pressure generated by the pump. The higher the PSI rating the more powerful the unit. Each one has their benefits and depending on the needs of the consumer will guide you to which model would be best suited for your needs. The electric model will be easier to use and usually smaller and lighter weight, where the gas powered model will be larger but will more than likely be much more powerful. The following are just a few jobs made easy with a Pressure Washer:
Those are just a few of the applications for a Pressure Washer. Once you get your hands on a good pressure washer, I guarantee you’ll find more uses for it than you thought possible.

Black and Decker Laser Level
The tool that we are featuring this week is the Laser Level. The laser level is one of those tools that once you purchase it, you can’t believe stuff got done around the apartment or house without it. There are all different types on the market. Some can be mounted on a tripod or simply sit on a counter while others can be mounted directly on the wall. The one that we are featuring this week is a wall mounted model. This laser level has multiple functions. It can be utilized as a stud finder. It also measures distance electronically and displays a horizontal and vertical laser line. One of the best features of this model is that it is self leveling, which means it takes the guess work out of the picture and possibility of making mistakes when attempting to manually level the tool like so many other models. The uses for this tool around the home are endless. This laser level could be used to assist in hanging pictures, installing a chair rail, installing wall tile, hanging curtains, putting up crown molding, installing cabinets and the list can go on and on. For a tool that is so versitile and will help you get the job done right the first time, the cost is definitely on the lower end. A simple wall mounted model can start as low as $20.00. The cost for the one featured today will run you just under $100.00. For either $20 or $100 the peace of mind that you’re getting the job done correctly and not having to look at that crooked picture is definitly worth it.
If you have a laser level that you can’t live without, post a comment and let the DZ community in on some of the uses you have found most helpful.
