Good Catch.. :headscrat

There would be no compression of insulation. A 2x4 girt mounted to the current 2x4 girt would essential create 4x4 girts with a standard 3-1/2" depth for 2x4 wall insulation batts. The building was built in 2008 by a prior owner and is all wired. Ceiling is also bare but standard rafters so no...

So, I just read many threads about pole barn insulation. Various different buildings (metal vs wood sided/roofed) and many different approaches to framing and use of insulation. However, I did not see anyone cover a question/idea I had.. (Should this be my sign? :lol: ) First - My 24x24...

Very Nice! Mine is actually very similar. Man door is on the left wall along with a window, the right wall (facing the street) has two windows, and in the peaks above the garage door and back wall peak is a window. My ceiling / roof pitch is more extreme and higher, but no loft just wide open. I...

Zio! That's very helpful. I didn't think the post could go that close to the wall, but also didn't calculate how much more distance the car will be from the posts on a wider lift.

Do you have a pic of what you mean? I'm assuming the car on the lift has its nose in the back corner of the garage then?

I'd see if you can do some tugging on the drywall and get it to loosen up a bit from the wall just enough to slide new plastic behind each edge and cover the space. Or take a flat bar at each stud to get the drywall to loosen from the fasteners to accomplish same goal. You'll have the old...

I know this is more personal preference, but trying to make a decision on size & location for a 2 post in a 24' x 24' garage. My new house has an attached 3 car garage, and detached 24 x 24 which is strictly going to be my car workspace. Tool boxes, welder, compressor, torches, blast cabinet...

Moved into a new house a couple months ago. Driveway & walks were poured in 2004. Not sure if they have ever been sealed since, but everything is in overall good shape. I pressure washed the entire thing and plan to seal it before the bad weather and salt gets here in NE Ohio. Looking for...

Air I hear you. I'm not positive on the Kaw on this Ferris since the label is not obvious or seen in the photos and it's an hour away. I do know the Gravely ZT HD 52 that I'm also considering now that the guy finally got back to me, has the FR730V 24hp. It only has 86 hours for an asking price...

I had a thread recently getting opinions on various used commercial grade zero turn mowers for a new 2.5 acre property. Just came across another mower that I'm trying to determine the useful life on. 2007 Ferris IS1000 w/ 23HP Kawasaki Motor - 1200 hours Other then the hours being higher then...

I forgot to respond this is in NE Ohio with kentucky blue grass and fescue

Good responses guys.. BTW since this is the garage journal I'll add that I'm getting a 3 car attached and a 2 car detached (with super high ceiling - perfect for me to finally get a lift) :-) Anyway to answer some of the questions.. not really any trees of concern to maneuver. The border is...

So we just purchased a new house and get the keys the first week of June. It is a 2.6 acre lot of pretty much wide open lawn. Subtract a 1/2 acre pond. Pretty flat with a rolling swale in one area that runs towards the pond. I'm coming from a 1/2 acre with a regular rider 42" deck. I do not want...
