    Under-the-concrete base options for small shed

    I'm aware of that 😂🤣😂, 90% of them ship. The delivery method is done pretty much everywhere since Lowes and Home Depot sell the same styles. Comes fully assembled all you have to do is provide the gravel base, they come in with a trailer/dolly that can put the shed wherever you want in the yard...

    2 Post Lift repair question

    Fastest? Going out the top, but I would be very wary about lifting from the roof trusses (wood trusses I'm assuming?) Safest way I would think is getting your hands on a railroad jack or even a high lift. Lift the column and crib until it clears the anchor...

    Under-the-concrete base options for small shed

    Set on building it? An Amish shed place near me has 12x20's that they can deliver on site with a powered dolly. If using it for yard/garden storage might be something to look into to save some time. All you need for them with the pressure treaded bottom rails is 4" of 3/4" clean gravel and you...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Cleaned the piles of 💩, purged some stuff, finally built the pallet racking I bought a year ago. Gotta get prepped for the next project, running a sub panel to the garage and getting a semi-in ground pool put in, whenever my permits get approved 😬. Will hopefully have a bike lift in there this...

    Old Kholer Compressor

    Always disassemble before ordering parts! Pretty much a set procedure at work lol. I will let you know how I make out this week if i can get smoke, fingers crossed!

    Old Kholer Compressor

    Found it! K301 is cast on the block, going to search around for a kit for that as well as the compressor. Going to try and get it connected to a battery this week to see how it runs and if it has a bit of blowby then I have my winter project! Will be a good addition to my welding rig/trailer so...

    Old Kholer Compressor

    Just looking for some help identifying this engine and compressor package. My work was getting rid of it for scrap, came off one of the old service trucks probably 10 years ago and had been in a conex box since. With the cost of the new one I figured I’d take it! Anyway from what I found I know...

    Concrete anchors for walls

    Thought about it but I know it would bother the heck out of me tbh 😂😂

    Concrete anchors for walls

    The 1/2” titans were actually exactly what I was looking at for screw anchors but the damn charts they had were so confusing to read I though they needed closer to 5” for edge distance. 2x4 sill plate with 1/2” sheathing so I am closer to the 2” +/- mark

    Concrete anchors for walls

    Morning all, so framing will hopefully be starting on the 16x25 building out back in the next week. I ran into a problem that I noticed last week when I went to lay out the sill plate. The J bolts are too far in to fully catch the sill plate, they are still under the plate if I cut them flush...

    Garage framing

    big lift for big stuff lol. Not to mention being 6'6" the smaller lifts leave quite a dent in your head when you smack it into the arms lmao. We have a 14' and a 16' at work needless to say the 14' probably has some of my skin on it.

    Garage framing

    You mean something like this for aesthetics you is what you were mentioning? I know someone mentioned previously putting the gables to the side which doesn't look bad IMO. But can they make a 45' long truss?

    Garage framing

    I get what you are saying and do not disagree. At this point and time the structure will look goofy next the a single story house I knew that when I started planning so I will not argue that fact lol. I do have plans to go up and out with the house in the future (5 ish years) when the family...

    Garage framing

    Finally had some time to get some info and some more ideas. The 4' stem wall with a 12' 2x6 stud wall is fine per the architect. BUT on the front wall I more than likely will need shear panels built in. I have plans sent into MiTek to figure what would work best so I should hear back in a week...

    Garage framing

    I have to screw around with the software, the 4’ stem wall isn’t shown in those pics. Architect said the same thing if I did the full wall in lumber lol. With the 4’ stem I’m looking at 12’ 2x6 walls with horizontal blocking. LVLs for the garage door headers.
