NEW PRODUCTS - PLANTING SEEDS
Posted by Richard Bogert on
I grew up on a farm. You learn that you can't have a crop unless you plant some seeds. Even when you plant the seeds not all of them will survive. Those that do, may take some time before you can harvest. I plant seeds, knowing that it may take years for them to grow. You have to be patient. Some things happen fast and some don't.

New Foot for Hi-Lift Jack
Posted by Richard Bogert on

Proposition 65 is a requirement for products sold in California that may contain chemicals that the State of...
Bottle Jacks - Mitigating the danger element!!
Posted by Richard Bogert on
Review by Jeremy Curtis of Ohio, 4-27-2017 I’m curious to see how you all are using your bottle jack on the trails or in your driveway. I only use my bottle jack on the trails but am looking to see if anyone is doing anything unique with storage and safe usage with their jacks on the trail.
