    I've got 4 of mine up, 2 more are sitting there waiting for me to decide where I want to put them. I'll try to clean a few things up today and get some pictures up soon.

    Seville Cabinets on Sale at Sams

    I put 6 of mine together. Went together without a problem, took maybe 15 minutes a piece after the first one. Planning on going 4 across on one wall and 2 across on the other. I'm screwing myself around on math right now and trying to figure out how I'm going to get the mounts on studs with...

    Just an FYI, Sams Club has the Seville Wall Cabinets on sale for $59 with free shipping. http://www.samsclub.com/sams/shop/product.jsp?productId=177497&navAction= Normally shipping prices are astronomical for these, plus the price is around $20 higher or there abouts.

    Hardware Storage

    I'm looking for a few ideas on hardware storage. The local Habitat for Humanity resale store has great deals on screws/nails/etc and I picked up quite a bit for 99¢/lb. I remember the dealership and older parts stores with a box that had 4 or so sliding drawers that opened to nice adjustable...

    VCT Tile coating

    I'd like to know too. I've put several coats on my VCT but it doesn't hold up too well really. Overall, for a garage it looks great, but I'm fairly hard on it and can see scratches and marring in places.

    STAINLESS STEEL countertop......the cheap alternative!

    It reminds me of Dibond. I have several scrap sheets of it in "gold" and bronze laying around. I may have to dig them up and see what I can come up with. (Printer/signshop guy here too)

    Bought My First Welder - Newb help

    Are there downfalls to the auto darkening helmets? Am I correct to assume the higher the number the darker the lense? I'm not afraid to spend money on a helmet. I only have one set of eyes, and 20/10 vision that I'd like to keep.

    Bought 45000 btu Mr Heater off E Bay and got 20% off with Bing.com

    There isn't a "catch" per say, its Microsofts way of getting you to use Bing as a search engine. When I used it a good while back when it was Live.com, I received 30% off an Aimpoint. I paid for the item (buy it now price) and then after a set period of time the 30% was credited to my...

    VCT install going well - half complete

    I'm not entirely sure really. The local stores don't have Armstrong products for what was recommended, so I'm going to do a bit more searching. I'm sure there is a post somewhere on here with exactly what I need. I have heard of people putting a clear epoxy on top of it. I don't think I'd go...

    Wow! I don't think I'd be too keen on trying that.

    VCT install going well - half complete

    If you look close you'll see a slight misalignment.... Another view before I placed the cut pieces around the edge. As you can tell I still have plenty to do for edging, etc.

    VCT install going well - half complete

    It is Armstrong VCT or Vinyl Composition tile. The same stuff found in many supermarkets, hospitals and office building hallways.
