Oh Ok, i think i might go that route. Plastic is easier to work with than metal.

So people that don't install a 50 amp for welder instead install a double pole or single 20 amp breaker for their welder?

I found a couple of forums that people stated you couldn't use PVC conduit inside res walls for running the wires. I was making sure I couldn't or couldn't.

Can PVC conduit (scheduled 40) be ran in walls (residential with insulation), I have read that it can't but I can't find anything on the actual code. If not what would be be used just straight EMT tubing? What type of junction box would be recommended, metal or plastic?

ya that's what i will do, I will put in #8 and 3/4" conduit.

Since I have my wall open because i installed a window and not for sure which welder I am going with can I install conduit in side the wall and then when I am ready i can run #8 THWN through the conduit, if so what size of conduit? I have 2x4 garage walls. I am considering doing 20 amp after...

I am looking to get into welding and would like to install and outlet for my welder. I would like to start of with a 110v welder, so my thoughts where run No.4 AWG or No.6 AWG wire and an 30 amp outlet and once I am ready to upgrade to a 220V I would replace the 30 amp breaker and outlet with a...

Looks like you have 2x6 solid wood trusses, mine just 2x4 that spans about 30 feet, I don't feel comfortable connecting the shelving to the trusses but none the less pretty cool.

So I use screws or nails to attach the triangles to the brackets?

Would adding two screws at each end grain joints joint help? I did add a finish nail. I was just trying to use some extra scraps of wood I have, they are annoying me because they are in my way ha ha. That and I enjoy working and making things with wood but obviously I am not super experience.

I got some Simpson some brackets and made some shelving for the real heavy stuff but they alcost a lot. So I made some brackets and would like some feed back. They are mad out of 1x2 common wood, 18 gauge brad nail, 1-1/4 finish nail and Gorilla wood glue. I made four and put them up in my shed...

I am looking to install a window on a outer wall on my garage but I am not sure of what brand of windows is good. Not looking for the most expensive or the cheapest. Looking for something that will last and work. The side of the garage gets light all day during the day. I am installing to bring...

Did you use #7 screw or lag screw with these. I have one side on my wall that i want a 16 ft shelf and trying to determine the spacing of the brackets and type of screw or lag bolt.

So bought some of these and the holes on the center where it bends seemed two separated that screws most likely won't hit/screw into the studs. I put one over a 2x4 I had and i can tell the screw by were the bracket bends would barely hit the 2x4.

How far apart did you space them out?
