    Same size place here. Mine was a 3 sided pole barn. So I added a front wall. Then insulated with 1" foam board. In between the girts. I framed it conventionally. 2 reasons, I wanted to be able to easily locate studs and I wanted to be able to hang weight on them. I started out ignoring...

    First welder: MIG or multi-process?

    My 2 cents I really enjoy Tig welding. I typically use a mig machine, why? Well it's faster. If I was a pure hobbiest I would be almost exclusively Tig. But I would get a machine that does both AC/DC. So I vote multiprocess machine without question

    Can I set up a 2 post lift with out a slab of concrete

    I asked a couple lift manufactures about this several years ago. They flat out told me no. The minimum size slab would be the width of the lift plus the distance on either side you could be to a joint, I believe 18". The length was at minimum 12 feet. This was many years ago but the...

    Ceiling Lights with Ceiling Fans, Flashing Shadow Problems?

    I get a small amount of flash but my lights are mounted completely outside the fan blades. It's totally worth it though drys stuff faster, keeps the temps even, circulates air. Totally worth it

    Dream Garage Build? Size and Cost for 2 Cars + Work Space

    So I suggest going up. If at all possible. Build high enough to put a large mezzanine in. Going up I think adds way less cost than going bigger. Since your limited in size if you build a bay wide enough for the lift and a mezzanine over almost all the left over space that would be a massive...

    How to select a cat for garage cat duty?

    Also if you want the cats to come and go as they please, get them chipped, then buy cat doors that will only open if it senses the chip. They work well.

    Volunteer shop

    One issue I have had is my garage door is not sealed up too well. I plan on buying the typical outside vinyl seal like most do. But that's not super cheap. With Christmas coming up gotta pinch pennies everywhere. So I ordered some brush style weatherstripping Ripped some OSB into strips...
