    scorpions. how to get rid of them .. what works ?

    Haven't had to worry about scorpions since I was in Iraq years ago. They were black with fat tails. I don't care, none of them look inviting. Glad to live in a place where I don't have to worry about them. :beer:

    Please don't judge me for asking this...

    I went with white to help keep things bright. I also figure it helps contrast with the things I put on the walls. In the end I figure it's not so much what color the walls are that give my garage personality, it's the things on them. =)

    Bolt-down necessary for air compressor?

    I have my 60 gallon vertical with steel feet. I took a foam cushion and cut 3 pieces out, one for each foot and put them under the feet. Helps keep some vibration down and doesn't walk a bit.

    Suggestions on running air around garage....

    I think I am just going to do a simple run of pipe over my one garage door to get to the wall between the bays, then drop down to a hose reel. My garage is only 22 x 32 and I am thinking maybe doing a system with numerous drops could be a little overboard lol.

    Suggestions on running air around garage....

    I am actually thinking as much as I don't like running black pipe, I might just say screw it and go with it. It's the right price and while it might make for a few choice words flying out of my mouth, it will last and look good once done. Me and another guy ran black pipe around a good sized...

    Suggestions on running air around garage....

    Thanks for the responses everyone.....or most of you anyways. I'm checking out the Rapid Air and Maxline stuff. Fast Pipe looks really nice but it's not cheap. As for the people that mentioned the search function. I know how to use a forum and I did try the search function. It wasn't much...

    BendPak (or other?) 4 post lift selection

    I agree. There are many cheaper options to be had and you shouldn't have those kinds of issues with a supposedly good brand. On that note, I'm hoping for the best.

    Suggestions on running air around garage....

    This is my home garage so it won't get all that much use. Not even weekly. More when I happen to be working on a project here and there.

    BendPak (or other?) 4 post lift selection

    Yeah that *****. Note that I am not saying that I don't believe people have received bad product, you obviously did. I was just noting that people are quicker to go post on the net when they are not happy as opposed to when they are. Hopefully I end up with a good product but until it gets...

    Suggestions on running air around garage....

    Like the title says. Looking for suggestions on running air around the garage. I know someone that uses PVC and according to them it's held up great. I like the thought of how easy it is to work with but would you trust it? I don't want to deal with black pipe. It works but it's a pain to deal...

    Pretty much how I feel. I don't care what you look up, you can find bad reviews. People are much quicker to gripe when they are mad than they are to send praise when things go well.

    BendPak (or other?) 4 post lift selection

    I did lots of research on lifts and finally decided to go with a Bendpak HD-9XW. Should be here and installed in a week or two. With all of the research I did before I finally decided what to go with, I have a hard time believing you can go wrong with Bendpak.

    Joined the Forum! Also put up my cabinet, led light underneath, and hung up my Indy flag.

    Hello from PA!

    I'm a little south of Pittsburgh. We actually built this house and the standard garage was 20x20. I had them add a 3rd bay and give me more depth so it's 31x21.5 now. I also had them do a cathedral ceiling in the third bay to give me more room over the car. The ceiling was already 10' high but...
