Sorry if I already answered in your other thread, I can't remember? I look at hundreds of these every year, most don't work or quit working a handful of years after the install. Up here we get weather extremes so I recommend 6" dia Sch 40, smaller diameters freeze solid when you need them the...

I don't think that version meets the fire code, HDPE is highly flammable. You might get by with a code-defining covering of concrete or sheet rock. Different states/cities will have modified versions of the IRC code but even that, as of the 2009 Edition, doesn't recommend plastic sheets used...

What kind of exterior waterproofing did you do? Bentonite injections are highly popular with these old-school stone walls. I would never put dimple board on the inside, in fact I've asked Dorken about using this product inside and they don't recommend it and it's not in the installation...

Acrylic or Polycarbonate, either will work but once you go over 1/4" it starts to get really expensive. Easy to cut with woodworking tools, just read up or you'll melt the plastic if you work too fast. You can get the material at your local plastic sheet supplier or US Plastic will hook you...

Neat, there's a few versions out there with orange and yellow colors. https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/roadrunner-tool-box.43554/

I would think a metal's supplier or even manufacturer would be able to get you exactly what you need. https://www.directmetals.com/products/wire-mesh/ https://www.mcnichols.com/wire-mesh https://www.thomasnet.com/suppliers/connecticut/all-cities/wire-mesh-50532605 Up here we have a few...

Nice Hammond Grinder Socal Steve! I worked a few night shifts at the factory in the 80's when Manpower was a thing. They'd have me doing the grunt work the union guys didn't want to do at 1/3 the wage. A.M. Todd was a few blocks over, they'd farm mints for mint oil and ship it to Chicago for...

I would think a medium-size Bosch Hammer Drill (RH-328VC, or whatever this model is called now)and a Bosch Bulldog X-treme Bit (for concrete with rebar) would work. I hit rebar drilling through sidewalks/driveways once in a while and 85% of the time can power through but it takes 3x longer than...

Beautiful, I was thinking that was a JVC DC-7 but it's something else, maybe the SG-J800? I've got several of the big TT boomboxes but not the SG-J800. The big Sharp takes the prize but the more horizontal JVC still weighs a ton.

I have rocky ground as well, I put very heavy weights on the inside corners instead. An easy idea is concrete or sand in a five gallon bucket, I've also tied off on some of the equipment in it.

You'd have to look at the ASTM standard to see the differences, usually it's what kind of **** it's moving. I would use neither! I look at these systems all the time and most are not working, the plastic degrades and falls apart. The photo shows what I run into on a weekly basis. The other...

I'm confused, are you talking about old-school with two static ends? I've got a few goto's for BMW's, little guys around 11, 9 and 7mm. Almost everything else is Gearwrench Style with one static end and the ratcheting end. I almost always use the static end first to loosen then use the...

I don't know what code is but the rest of the project looks great! I want to do something similar to the back of my much smaller garage.

Bondhus are everywhere, and cheap, up here, Wiha's big new warehouse is just down the street from them and they always have their own on sale. I don't like the attached versions, just give me the individual pieces but the small ones tend to get lost. Maybe I'm not normal but I have 3-5 sets of...
