I'm looking at doing the same thing as Colonial Cobra did but a garage door guy said it requires different springs. Is this true???

I also have 3 anchors that set higher and cut off the tops, but at about 1/8-1/4 inch beneath the level of the floor. Have not "installed" the Max-Jax yet but I did notice Danmar now offers epoxy in anchors. You may want to try those before you cut the slab?

Looks like for me the price is about the same, ordering the Seville ones online 3 at a time actually ends up cheaper than me picking them up at the local Sams location. Already assembled one of the Seville ones but need more. Went ahead and picked up one of these Performax ones since the...

I searched but don't see any posts regarding these. Has anyone tried these cabinets?? Torn between this and the Seville ones from Sam's Club http://www.menards.com/main/more/garage-tool-storage-sale/2-door-wall-cabinet/p-1458890.htm

ddawg16' I have the same scheme ae yours and was thinking about a border. Has anyone ever considered duck tape as a border stripe?? I was looking at a Gorilla tape since the weave on the tape is more uniform. Thoughts??

regguy1, I did drill all the way through the slab and was able to force the anchor through but after a lot of hammering and cutting the anchor in half and hammering the remains through the slab. gcan, did you end up damaging the sacrificial bolt? Did you damage the threads of the wej-it? I'm...

Did any of you have troule pounding the anchors in? I had a lot of trouble with just the first one, it was so hard to pound in I bent the sacrificial bolt with just half the anchor barely into the concrete.

Hello Everyone. For those of you installing a lift like the MaxJax, has anyone had trouble pounding the anchors into their concrete? I drilled the first hole out 5/8' and then finished it with a 7/8" bit (as required but the anchor instructions) and cleaned the hole out with air but it was very...

The divots are small about the size of sand granules. I like your floor regguy1, I'm doing almost the same colors (epoxy and chips) and still haven't decided if I will chip the floor or not though, depends on how the solid primer coat looks..

Hello Everyone, I need some "advice". I have searched but did not find an answer to this question. I have just started prepping for epoxy and have etched my floor 2 times now with a 1:1 Muriatic Acid:Water ratio and there are spots where it is not quite the texture of 100 grit sandpaper. In...

The extension cord reel is a good idea, another option is to cut some hardboard into something similar to this shape, has more area to wind the lights onto: ============= .....IIIIIIIIIIIII .....IIIIIIIIIIIII .....IIIIIIIIIIIII .....IIIIIIIIIIIII =============

I'm working with a 600 sq ft garage with a 15' gambrell roof. Basically a 22 x 28

Thanks guys, I am familiar with the consequences. Have had that happen with fiberglass resin in the winter. I will take my chances and pray for warmer weather when I do the actual application. Hoping to get the garage empty and etched this weekend and then its time to wait.....
