    Lighting for a 40 x 30 workshop

    Everything was ran in conduit outside of the interior tin. I wasn’t positive on light and outlet placement to have it flush mounted. Conduit bought me time and let me have everything accessible. Randy

    Lighting for a 40 x 30 workshop

    I think there are about 30 of the 4' LED tube lights (ones like in the recommended light thread) in my 30x40 shop. I bought the fixtures and LED's based on the lighting thread and have about $20 into each fixture. I laid out the lights on the floor still in the box and the fans, too. This...

    Car lifts

    I love my Advantage lifts. Very well constructed and heavier duty than the really cheap 4 post lifts.

    Relocating a 4-post

    I have moved them on a pontoon boat trailer were we just lowered the lift onto the trailer, secured the legs and then cranked up the trailer to get the lift off the ground. I've also used a tilt bed car trailer and just winched the lift up while the lift was on the casters. Both methods worked...

    2 post vs 4 post lifts

    I have two Advantage 4 posts, one single and one double. Very solid construction and lightweight ramps. After looking at others, the Advantage lifts appear to be much better built than some of the cheaper options. Randy

    Milwaukee Tire Inflator, is it any good?

    X3. One of my favorite and most used tools and I was skeptical as I have all 18v and thought 12v would be disappointing. I also like the 18v small blower for quick clean ups, drying vehicles, and inflating pool toys and air mattresses. Randy

    ALI certified for four post lifts?

    I have two Advantage lifts, one single and one double. Certification didn’t mean much to me as they are so much better built then really cheap ones that I feel plenty safe using them. :dunno: There was talk that they may be certified now but I’m not sure. Certification didn’t matter as much...

    Griot's Garage products

    I don't think Body shops are their target market. Griots caters to the car care enthusiasts more so than paint and body shops. If you are truly looking for a great product to use on your work I'd recommend investing some time, research, and money into finding out what is best for you. Join a...

    Show off your lifts!!!

    Here some pics of my Advantage SXS in the back garage and the Advantage in the new shop. :rocker: Both were purchased slightly used from local sellers, too! The Double lift is holding up my '50 Chrysler Windsor 2 door (54k miles all original) and my '64 Riviera (32k miles all original) until...

    M12 Air Inflator

    The inflator is probably my favorite Milwaukee tool. If they had an M18 version, I buy that one, too, but the M12 has done everything I've needed it to do. If you have multiple cars, trailers, ATV's etc., this is a must have tool. Randy

    Please Vote On Which Pole Barn Setup You Think Is Best!

    I vote for whichever is easiest to back trailers in and doors on the ends so that snow and rain don't fall in front of the doors. Natural light doesn't concern me much as I don't have any windows in my buildings for security reasons and to keep prying eyes from seeing what is inside. I'd also...

    low cost flooring option for attic room?

    I found some laminate floor on sale at Menards for something like $.59 sq/ft with free underlayment. I did the whole attic room (apprx 16x30) for about $400 with the trim. Went together fast and is holding up great even with the kid practicing hockey up there. :lol: Good luck. Randy

    Milwaukee M12 tools that are worth it?

    I love the M12 inflator for quick tire fills and the whole family has the M12 heated jackets. :thumbup: Randy

    Tyvex house wrap, pole barn PSA

    My builder required a wrap or poly if I was to use spray foam for insulation. They said if the spray foam is on the metal it will void the rust warranty due to possibly trapping moisture. Randy
