Can't get the link to work?

That is a great explanation. My dim's would be 24' x 26". All I want is an estimate to judge how much cash is needed. Initially it would be used for some storage and it will enhance the appearance of the whole house if it were done. Obviously before doing anything I would have to plan for what...

There is currently a basement level attached 2-car garage that I would be building on top of. Block walls and when I built it I topped it with a steel beam, floor joists and 3/4" plywood flooring and then just put a shed type roof on. All I would have to do is take down the shed roof and it...

Anybody have a very rough estimate for material costs for a do-it-yourself addition? Foundation and flooring are already there so I'm only looking at stud walls, sheeting and roof. Cost in linear ft.? or sq. ft.? Thanks.

Mine actually does have the room temp dial and the thermocouple that reads room temp. It will regulate for a while then just keeps going up.

Anybody good with the Harman pellet stoves? I have a P68 ~6-7 years old. It never really regulated temperature that well but it was acceptable. Lately it has been terrible. Here is what it did when I fired it for this year (was also doing it last year). It ran for about 24 hours keeping the room...

We use one for racing. Last about a season. Take out the warranty.

Sorry, 8' x 12'. I like the idea of the roll roofing. I could leave it a little long and wrap it up a few inches before siding it or something. Should be simple and inexpensive. Thanks.

I'm planning a small (~8"x12") "bumpout" off my garage. It will be built on an existing concrete slab. I don't want any of the wood to be in ground contact because the drainage isn't great in that area. I'm looking for ways to get the framing up off the concrete to prevent "wicking" of moisture...

I got mine for a 231C at Tools and Hydraulics Inc. at 423-622-8282. They are cheap. I think I bought 5 of each.
