    Do You Love The Sound of Music or Do You Enjoy The Silence?

    Depends on my mood and what I am doing. Sometimes I listen to sports talk. Most of the time I plug my ipod in to the stereo and listen to that. Could be blues, could be all the hair bands, or sometimes I just hit random and let it go. With 8800 songs, I may never hear the same songs twice.

    My Epoxy-Coat floor one year later

    The garage looks great. I must have overlooked it, what brand did you use? Can you comment on how this will hold up in our home garage where we park our cars everyday? I like the use of the corrugated metal around the bottom of the garage. Thanks for the pics and ideas.

    Would you buy this?

    Don't let the purple scare you off. If it suits your needs and serves the same purpose and does a good job, purple is good.

    Wire Stripper Opinions

    I have used a set of Ideal with the blue handles mentioned above for 20 years now. I work in electrical maintenance at a power plant. I get to use them on a regular basis. I liked them so much at work that I bought a set of them for my use at home. If the blades are out of adjustment, you will...

    Best Hand Cleaner

    We have Stoko Kresto at work and it works very nicely. I think for the price you found I may have to buy a bottle of that for home. I have always liked the Fast Orange stuff for my home garage. Seems to work pretty darn good to me plus it rinses off easily and doesn't leave that smelly, greasy...

    GM Universal Remote and Marantec 4500

    Thanks for the link Dan. I will print the instructions out and see what I can manage. I am pretty sure mine is a rolling type. I will get the manual from Marantec too.

    GM Universal Remote and Marantec 4500

    My new to me truck has GM's built in garage door opener. I am having a problem getting the two to work together. I have directions for both and for whatever reason I am having no luck. Is anyone using the two together and it working like it is supposed to? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Mounted Pay Phone... 3mo later~!

    Very nice looking phone. First time I have seen one that has been restored. Awesome work. Could also be Simplicity orange.

    Got the Traffic Light going...

    This is the color that I bought for my light. I have not used any of the paint nor restored my light. I gotta get around to getting it done. I am going to put mine in our game room. Great thread guys.

    Sell me a CORVETTE!! (Vette owners only..)

    There is a reason you for your feeling like that in the C5 Z06. The Z06 was built to perform. 2001 was 385 HP. 2002 to 2004 were 405 HP. They are fixed roof cars. They have the short rear glass. The front glass is a special light weight piece compared to the normal C5 vette. The car has no noise...

    Need a Quicik Answer From "The Knowledgeable" - on Wilton Vises

    I have been looking for a new vice for my garage. I was down stairs cleaning up and found my current vice has a broken jaw. I asked my son what happened and he said he broke it but was going to replace it before I found it. I straightened him out on that kind of nonsense right then. Now I see...

    Sell me a CORVETTE!! (Vette owners only..)

    I am on my 4th vette. I bought my first when I was 25. I now have a 70 convertible that I have had for about 11 years. I have touched every nut and bolt on the car. I would not hesitate driving the car anywhere. I really enjoy this car. They are easy to work on and parts are readily available...

    been here long enough

    I like it. Very nice and clean. I really love the clean floors idea myself. I want to have everything up off the floor too. I had a small two car garage I could hardly move about in and could not keep the cars in it. Now that I have a 3 car and a basement, there is nothing but cars in the...
