    Bend Pak MCAX10 or Rotary A10?

    I just got the MX-10ACX. I installed it myself and it works great. Bought it from http://www.e-autolifts.com/ They had great service and I got the lift in about 6 business days. I don't think you can go wrong with either lift. A friend worked at a ****** shop and all they had were Bend Pak...

    New Garage

    We sure do pay for fill and the prices go up every month. Down here we have to make sure the finished floor is above the flood zone.

    Did you use anti-slip additive on your epoxy floor?

    I used the Shark Grip additive available from Home Depot on my floor. We use it on all of the epoxy floors we do on the houses we build. It is a liability issue on the houses, but I feel that if it is used correctly it only makes the surface slightly harder to clean. In my garage you can...

    I bought a DeWalt Cordless Combo...Going Back Tomorrow..

    I have come to really like the Ridgid tools. I used to own all DeWalt, but a couple of years ago when the Ridgid stuff came out I bought new drill. They had lifetime warranty on their batteries (Not Anymore) and they seem to be built really well. I have the cordless sawzall and it works great.

    http://www.icynene.com http://www.zipfoam.com/ This is a spray in insulation. We use it in some of the high end homes we build. Contractor's price is between $1.75 and $2.00 per square foot. You may be able to find a contractor that will spray it for you. I don't think the spray in type is...
