The lift uses a pneumatic cylinder to raise/lower. It isn't air or electric over hydraulic like alot of car lifts. The only spec they list for air requirements is 90-100 psi. That is the same Kobalt compressor I purchased, I was excited about it because it had some similar features to the...

My hunch was that even though the 30 gallon Kobalt has the lowest CFM of the 3 options that it actually may perform the best due to the increased tank size and higher cut in/cut out pressure (seems like it would be less likely to drop below 90-100 PSI than the other ones). Does that seem...

They don't provide any spec on the volume of air needed to raise the lift. But with the physical size of the cylinder I would be surprised if it could hold more than a couple gallons of air. I won't be raising and lowering it frequently. And won't be using the air tools for an extended...

I am in the process of setting up my home garage to work on a few motorcycle projects and am trying to select an air compressor for it. It is a detached garage and only has (1) 20 amp 120V circuit for the entire garage. We don't intend to stay in the house long enough to justify the expense...

That is some great advice :headscrat In an effort not to waste money, buy a 15 amp Pro Grade outlet for $4.78 since Charles thinks it is identical on the inside to the 20 amp version. Definitely don't buy the good quality 20 amp receptacle for $3.23. Honestly, do you think if someone is...

For some reason this thread seems to have some off the wall responses, but it could just be me, I have had a long day... :lol_hitti Your well pump is 240v which is why it is on the duplex breaker. The 30 amp duplex breaker above it is also 240v. The white wires going to the breakers should...

Well it was a reasonably productive weekend at the shop, although the pictures don't really show it. I was over there most of the day Saturday and Sunday. I put down the RaceDeck flooring in the bathroom, installed the toilet, light, baseboard heater, thermostat, and made the electrical...

Thanks. I am near Cleveland, OH.

I do not have any current pictures that show the whole front of the building, but it looks about the same. The only thing we have done on the exterior is patch the whole in the front wall, replace the glass block window, and we painted the bare block grey. The gas company also ran a new...

www.loopnet.com is the commercial equiivalent of the MLA (residential listing services). In my area nearly all commercial properties are listed on LoopNet. Most of LoopNet is free, but there are several features you get with a paid membership. The 4700 sq ft shop was listed on LoopNet and...

Thanks for all the info. I didn't realize they had the S/R version. That looks like it would be real competitive in the racing I do. Looks like you had a great start to your ZX2. Did you keep all the performance parts to build another one?

I'll give you a few hundred for your ZX2 :beer: Seriously though, I originally planned on getting a ZX2 or a probe. I looked and drove several of each. I was having a hard time finding a decent car to start with at a good price. I decided to go with the Neons for several reasons. The...

Thanks. Keep an eye out, you may be surprised the deals you will find. Similar buildings recently sold for 5-10 times as much as I paid for mine.

My area is probably unique since we have so much manufacturing, but it shouldn't be too hard to find similar buildings/deals in other areas as well. The biggest advantage for me is since I live on .15 acres I do not have enough land to build anything at home, but both buildings are within 3...
