I have tools and golf clubs in my garage and they
I don't know if you have been having higher then normal humidity where you live but one thing I have done for years that is inexpensive and easy is to wipe down your tools and golf clubs when not in use then spray them with WD-40.On my tools that hang in my shop I just spray them and leave the spray on. The tools that go in my tool boxes I spray and wipe lightly then put them on paper towel liners in drawers.I have my shop in a very old building with no heat unless I'm in it and have my stove burning so my tools are subject to extreme weather conditions. I do the same thing with power tool except being careful not to get any on the motors. I spray the table,blades and fence and mitre guide on my table saw and table,supportpole,gears and spindle on drill press and leave it on. It collect a bit more dust but cleans up easy.
The main ingredient in WD-40 is fish oil so it works great at displacing water and preventing rust. Thank you.

How do I properly use a hand swaging tool for 3.2mm dia wire rope
they do make swagginhg tools that are fixed onto the yoke of a flaring kit. to hand swag, you should use the block of the flaring kit to hold your tubing. if you are swagging half inch tubing, hold the tubing up the diameter of the tube plus one eighth of an inch. tighten down the nut opposite the tube first then the closest one. this will keep the tubing from slipping.
Then hit it squarely with a hammer and it will bottom out at the flaring block. I would ease up on that last stroke to keep from cracking the tubing

I need battery charger cen-tech 69368 manual
Sorry to say, but Harbor Freight's parts list has no internal parts listed. So to fix it yourself, you may be able to find the little tiny diodes that usually go bad. They don't even have a wiring diagram in the owners manual.
I need an instruction manual.
Click on the 'Literature' tab here: http://www.mackay.co.uk/draper-expert-magnum-1000-workbench-86265-mwb1000-machine-tools-accessories-power.html - both manual and parts list available
I have a b&q rechargeable 1m candle power
Probably between 3 to 5 hours.
Check battery regularly. It should be warm while charging. When it begins to get hot it is charged. If you charge the battery for longer, there is the increased danger of fire or leakage from the battery.
Note how long the battery has been charged for and during for future charges, reduce the charging time.
NiCad batteries should be run flat before being recharged rather than being topped up in order to get maximum life out of the batteries. This is less critical with NiMh batteries.
