Both lamps have been sold. Thanks.

Just updating the thread to say that there is only one left of two. Didnt think that was considered a "bump". Sorry.

One sold, one left!

I have two brand new Liftmaster 380LM Remote control garage door opener lights. Brand new, never installed. They operate off of your remote and door control. These are not in the original boxes. They work with liftmaster 3800 garage door openers, may work with other models. $20 each, plus...

Hi fellas, quick question about venting the heater in my garage. I have a Dornback 75K btu LP gas unit heater. I have been searching for good stainless steel vent pipe to vent it horizontally thru the wall. Called a couple supply houses locally, neither seemed to know what I was talking...

It is built with trusses. It would seem to be alot less work to just frame an opening, without adding the header, jack and cripple studs. It is 16 OC all the way around.

I picked up a 25K btu wall a/c unit at Lowes over the weekend, on clearance. Question is, what is the proper way to make an opening in the wall for this thing? Basically make a new "window" and install a header etc? A buddy told me a header wouldnt be necessary in a gable wall. Im not too...

Got the furnace in today....but it was damaged....looked like UPS rolled it down a hill....looking forward to the replacement. Ive got a couple dilemmas on the a/c unit. A buddy that works with HVAC suggested installing the A/C unit in the north facing wall of the garage (for efficiency), but...

Yeah, thats what I am looking at doing too. Although it would look great, I am weary of doing a bunch of automotive work on it, I have heard about not turning the tires on it etc. Seems it could be quite slippery after a spill of antifreeze or oil.

Hello all, quick question for those that have VCT flooring in their shop. I am considering it for the not too distant future, but am wondering how it holds up. Im talking general car/truck work being done on it. Jackstands, floor jacks, the occasional oil spill, engine attached to cherry...

After much consideration, here is what is going to go in... This will be the furnace of choice for the garage, the 75k btu model: http://www.dornbackfurnace.com/pdfs/unitheaters.pdf Looking at the specs, at 25-35 degrees, garage should be to 72 in about 20 minutes. A/C will be very similar...

Thanks fellas!! Glad to see some fellow NC members too! Will do!! I have many "before and during" pics, need to take some "after" pics...soon!

If I end up doing an HVAC full system, it will be a split system, and the furnace/air handler will go in the attic.

The more I think about this, the more I am considering just going with a regular hanging heating unit (like the Mr.Heater big maxx), and a wall mount air conditioner. The time, expense and amount of work to install a complete HVAC system is starting to not look like such a hot idea. With the...

Went with a Quincy, after much consideration and research. Have had a few other brands in the past, similar size and CFM, and it has beaten them down so far. I had the walls open when I picked it up, so running proper power and air lines throughout the shop was relatively easy. Wanted to have...
