    How do I stop this rust from happening?

    Are you guys talking about these scotch brite pads? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006I1OWO/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Or are you talking about the hand pads like the ones you use for cookware in your house?

    How do I stop this rust from happening?

    I have this same problem. I saw it happening the other day when it was cold out but suddenly was 54 degrees and I was working in the garage. But by the time I realized, it was too late. Now I have this rust all over my jointer and drill press table. After using evaporust to clean it, can I...

    liftmaster 8500

    I have 2 and they're about a year old. One gets used a lot more than the other but they are very quiet compared to the standard type and have not had issues yet.

    Best interior wall surface for a shop and thickness?

    I've got some FRP over 3/4" OSB on two of my side walls. The back wall (opposite of the doors will be reclaimed wood from the exterior of my old garage. The fiberglass also doubles as a sudo white board and you can draw on it. Friends come over and draw stuff all the time. I like to draw up my...

    Small Waste Oil Burners (small footprint)

    Darn, I was just hoping to be able to dump my waste oil tank at home and not have to pump it out of the container into little bottles and drive them across town to the store that will take it. I don't have the tools or knowhow to make one of those homemade ones with all the welding and whatnot...

    Small Waste Oil Burners (small footprint)

    Hey I've been doing some poking around the web for a smaller sized waste oil burner. Making one myself might be out of the question as I have no idea what I'm doing. The smallest one I've seen so far is the 120k btu Eliminator. It's still bigger than I would like. My garage is only 24x24 and I...

    The American Flag on or in your Shop/Garage

    Here's mine I made out of 2x4 blocks. Has different lengths for each color so it has some texture to it. The stars didn't come out as white as I hoped against the blue paint but it works well enough. Don't mind the mess, it's a new garage and slowly putting everything away as shelves and mounts...

    Paper Collated Nails

    I'm going to buy a small pack of 30 degree nails and run it through to see then. If it works then that's great to know. I liked the idea of the paper nails because I wouldn't have plastic bits everywhere after using it. But after using up my first supply I bought online and looking around for...

    Paper Collated Nails

    I have a Hitachi framing nail gun. It uses 33deg paper collated nails. I have a lot of trouble finding 33 degree nails around here locally but I see 30 degree paper collated nails all the time. Does 3 degrees matter so much that they wouldn't work? It's this particular model if it matters...

    Built a wall mounted wheel/tire rack

    Welp, it's been about a week. The rack is still up no warping or anything. I pulled on it to test it and it seems good to me. Time to make use of the area underneath it.

    Built a wall mounted wheel/tire rack

    Jeez, you have a lot of tires. I hope they're not all for one vehicle haha I might eventually have another set of 4 but I'd just build another rack and put it up somewhere. I have 24x24 to work with and I rather give up wall space than floor space. I think I might be able to mount some on the...

    Built a wall mounted wheel/tire rack

    The two side walls will have FRB 5/8 OSB. The wall with the tires on it will get my old wood boards that look pretty nice reclaimed from the previous small garage. Before I put the tires up I did think I should probably put a few boards up there but I got lazy and decided to figure it out...

    Garage Door Opener Mounting Locations

    I have two of the Liftmaster 8500 Elites skeletonizer showed in his picture. They work fantastic and are quiet. They also have a torsion bar to help lift the door evenly.
