    Good to know that lumens are lumens... wasn't sure if there was a difference between the how the different light systems... LED v Florescent... are measured I don't want to add fixtures... but I am willing to replace the fixtures with different size/style fixtures. I don't want to get involved...

    Lighting question... I know, but my eyes hurt from reading

    I've been reading on here, and other sites for a couple days... I think I am more confused now, than when I started... Please forgive what is certainly a frequently asked question... About 5 years ago, I built a small shop (250 sg ft) to work on my Harleys. I used this site, and even posted...

    Security measures for your garage

    Lucky for me, most lots in the neighborhood are 1.5+ acres. The neighbors think my little shop is a spare bedroom/granny flat... Besides, my dogs like to hang out front, and their favorite potty spot is behind the shop, by the fence.... You'd be hard pressed to get near it without them...

It'll be a great place to unwind or to take a break if a project isn't going well. My Great Dane has already claimed the porch slab as...

    Harley Workshop

    The J&S was part of a progression. I still use it, but use the table more. I had a Sears jack that worked fine for about 7 years with my Softail. I put my Ultra on it, and it just wasn't near sturdy enough for my tastes. Because of the Ultra, I got the J&S. It's exponentially better than the...

    Harley Workshop

    Thanks all, it was a fun project, and I like the result. I managed to use all the available space on that side of the house... I couldn't have made it any bigger if I wanted to... To answer the questions: The decal is inlaid. I bought a large, waterproof trailer decal. I installed it on the...

    Harley Workshop

    I have been reading this forum for over a year. I've been riding Harley motorcycles since 1976 and do most of my own work. Until now, I mostly worked on my bikes on the street, then in a parking lot, then in a 10x10 storage shed, and 3 years ago I had half of a 2 car garage. I finally got the...
