I normally keep a pancake in the house garage. My son borrowed it a few weeks ago so I can’t tell you the brand for sure, but I think it’s Bostich 6 gallon. A little loud but does a good job. John

Three overhead doors look cute but are not practical today. Unless they were at least 10’ wide. To accomplish that, it would require the garage to be wider by a few more feet. As I already mentioned above, you need more depth, or will need to eliminate the half wall to park full size vehicles...

What about a wire wheel on a drill with a little elbow grease? John

Welcome. Btw: It’s always nice to know your approximate location. John

I’m guessing you must only drive small to mid size vehicles. Three 9 foot wide doors will be a deterrent for future resale as most households wanting that much garage space will probably have at least one full size truck or SUV. Think about side mirrors, nothing more annoying than having to...

You may need to compensate for that when you install the first panel so when you get to the end of the wall it works out to where it doesn’t cause an issue. When I built mine 40x42 it worked out fine. You might need to trim the 1st piece. Do the math and you’ll figure it out. John

Btw: I buy and sell on Craigslist quite a bit and have had mostly good results.

Thanks for letting us know. Way too far away for me, but I was very curious whether it was a scam or not. John

Yep, still waiting…

I wonder if it is designed to be used more vertically (upmost position). Rotate the arm up, then mount the engine so it is easier to work on without stooping. Positioned as shown makes no sense to me. John

Nice score. Congrat’s. John

Now the waiting… John

Sounds too good to be true. John

I only have one helmet, but I keep it in an antique barrister book case with glass doors. I got it for free on CL and it does a good job of keeping it clean when not being used. John
