    Shadyluke's 30x40x14 Fab Shop in Southeast PA

    Followed you over from DEJA. I just got my 40 x 40 x 14 in two years ago and I know the good feeling of finally getting things rolling. Let me know if you need a hand. I'm a little ways away now, but I lived in New London for some years so I'm sure I can find my way around.

    Electric chainsaw suggestions...

    I have a Black and Decker that must have fallen off a truck in front of my house a few years ago. Seems to run fine. Mostly use it in the shop cutting up smaller logs and branches, when the weather outside is bad and I don't feel like running a gas saw.

    Harbor Freight Sand Blast Cabinet - Light Upgrade

    Thanks for the info. Now I know what to get. I'll see if I can't find a plastic or metal container with a clamp style lid for easy removal. I stole your halogen work light set up. Only tried one 150watt light, Definitely going need one coming from the side too.

    Pipe bending ??

    The thickness and type of pipe you will need, will depend on the intended use. I know you said "roll bar" but what kinda of application are we talking about? As for getting some tube bent, I would think a Off Road shop into fabrication would have bender and the right kind of tube too.

    How far would you go to help?

    Help the guy out. He seems to be honest. If he was going to stick you with the bill, he wouldn't have said a thing...He would've let you do the work, then just not paid you. When you lose your trust in your fellow man, your the one who has lost.

    Garage coming along - some questions about ceiling drywall

    Around here (Delaware) your looking at $20 a sheet finished. I did a 14' high, 1600 sf ceiling in my shop this past winter by myself. Used a jack and I worked off a rolling scaffold. A young man game for sure if your in a rush....If your in no hurry....It's doable.

    Work bench depth

    I just built a 24' long bench too. The one half I made 32" deep and the other half I made 24" deep. The deeper end is where the vice goes and heavy dirty work is done and not much going against the wall. The shallow side is where I going to put the cabinets and other things I need to reach...

    Wood stove paint?

    Not sure if I should ask here or the heating - a/c forum....But here goes. What's a good brand name to go with? I just got my stove out of storage and it got some surface rust where some of the old paint flaked off. I know I need to sand or wire brush it down and get it as clean as possible...

    Pole Barn flooring/driveway question

    How about run a strip of hot mix at the joint if you use millings? Are you planning to put a concrete pad in at a later date? If so, I'm not sure if millings would be your best bet. Maybe crusher run or 57 stone and add a bunch of fines to tighten it up.
