    Running power to garage

    I was under the assumption that I didn't need ground rods but after a bit of reading you are correct. So..two 1/2''x8' copper clad ground rods 6' apart with #6 solid copper ran through 1/2 sch80 connected to my ground bus. Sound legit? Thanks for the info btw. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

    Rebuilding an 18x24 garage

    Day 3...housewrap and windows, took it easy today. It was just me today so it was difficult to get the housewrap flat with the wind. I Also figured the angle and cut some 2x's to frame the gable overhang, not exactly sure how I'm going about that yet. Started lifting trusses up. The tails...
