I love my battery powered leaf blower for this use. 2 seconds to drop a battery in it, then it blows everything out quickly. I have a big fan I put in the door on exhaust while I do this to handle the dust. An old shop trick to handle dust on the floor is to keep some sawdust around in a...

Came here to look for ideas on piping the drops for my new air system, and there you go, same system and some good ideas! I love this board. I'm doing the same 3/4 run and 1/2 drops. If you were going to sweat the fittings, you could have saved a lot of money and just used a 4-way sweat and 3...

I've got a double-wide, double-deep garage built over a single bonus room on a walkout house. No columns or beams, just hollow core. The previous owners built it as a hurricane shelter, but I use it as my wood shop. 26'x54' and exactly 1 plug in it, attached to the light breaker... Sigh...

That's a great idea. If it weren't for the upper garage having prestressed concrete floors, a toolbox dumbwaiter would be great. But I would still need someone to load and unload it. I've joked about putting in one of those man-lifts like they used to have at parking garages with a chain that...

There are. I'm close to Sugarloaf Mountain, the highest place in the peninsula of Florida. Or what I call "The Floridian Alps", nearly 400 ft above sea level!

I've been lucky enough to find and move into a house that has two garages, a 3 car garage on the first floor and a 2 car garage + workshop in the basement. (House is built on a hill) I'm putting most of my workshop and all my metal and woodworking tools in the basement workshop and my general...

I built my cabinet doors out of pegboard too. Pros: Can put up pegs inside and outside. Can hear the radio with the door closed. Cons: Inside pegs tend to bump into stuff inside. Closing the door too fast knocks some stuff off of pegs. Putting too much stuff on the doors makes them heavy...

Done lurking, actually registered this time. I am in Central Florida and have a 3 car garage (two cars and a motorcycle) attached to the house. It's too full, but I am actually working on all of the projects inside. I also have a house up on the Eastern Shore in Virginia with two two car...

Maybe I am a rube and a softy, but I loan out tools and stuff all of the time to my neighbors or friends. I usually keep a list of what I loan out, but not always. About the only "rule" I have when loaning out a tool is asking the person when they will return it when they take it. I guess I am...
