Expert advice on repair, maintenance and gear.
Your very own dump truck for $40
If weekend projects are your thing, think about getting your hands on this Haul-Master 1/2-Ton Truck Bed Cargo Unloader. It’s ingenious even though it’s nothing more than a sheet of polypropylene mesh that wraps around a shaft turned by a hand crank. Just hook it on the end of your lowered tailgate, pull the mesh sheet across the length of the bed and load your cargo right on top.
When you’re ready to unload, just spin the crank and watch your precious cargo spill right out the back; no more tiresome trips up into the bed with a shovel. If you need to spread gravel or topsoil, you could drive slowly and have a buddy dump the load as you go.

9 ALTERNATIVE USES FOR SAWDUST
Every fully stocked wood shop has a table saw. You can usually find a pile of sawdust under it, even if it's used only occasionally. If a shop has a belt sander or band saw, there's probably another pile of finer sawdust under that. Even people without stationary tools have sawdust accumulation on their workbenches.
