    Keeping Track of Loaned-Out Tools

    I have a dry erase board in the barn. I put their name , tool loaned and the date. I don't loan to just anyone. But I have been burned. But I like paybacks. One so called pal wanted to borrow my half inch torque wrench. the clicking kind. Brought it back and said it worked great as a braker bar...

    So what was your BEST garage update this year?

    R-13 in the walls and R-60 in the ceiling. Two mouse farts and the barn is heated to 50*. Moved the compressor to shed next to the barn and plumbed the barn. Love it.

    Look what was delivered to the house today

    When you move it, leave it in the pallet and use a hand cart. Take it off the pallet after you move it.

    How many have urinals in your caves

    I can't go outside to take a leak since I'm surrounded by houses. So I Put a hose through the wall in a corner and hooked a big red funnel to it. Works like a charm.

    Keeping mice out?? Help

    Last year I used the sticky traps. Worked great. Untill I let it go for a couple of days. Checked it and found 4 feet. That's it, just feet. Alway's wondered what else his pals did to him before he was ate? Went back to regular traps. Now I just feed the local tom cat so it hangs out more.

    looking for a new heater for my garage and need some ideas

    If you go the used route, don't take their word for it that it works. Rig it up so it puts out heat before you invest any more time and money. Trust me.:mad:

    Have You EVER........

    Someone did that south of me about 20 yrs. ago. Still looks great today. It's even on a lake. You have to look twice to realize it's a house now.

    How to insulate a pole building garage.

    MDALE- It's a pole barn but I did stud the walls. OSB doesn't have to be painted, it's stronger than drywall and I do all of my welding outdoors.
