It's a TPO setup. Everything I've read about flat warm roofs and insulation seems to indicate not having a fiberglass bat style insulation below the deck as it can cause moisture to form in the bats (when the roof is warm and the inside air is cold or vice versa) and cause mold/rot/etc. The...

So working on a heating/ac option for my 21W x 30D garage in the midwest (Kansas City). A bit of a different animal as I have a "flat" (low slope) roof and the garage is an enclosed former carport. Insulation... Floor is a bare slab with no insulation under it or at the perimeter...

Will be interesting to see how this progresses. As mentioned I would start a "garage gallery" thread. I have a MCM "cubist" type residence built in 1960.. it had a 2 car carport that at some point someone added 10' to the back of and enclosed into a garage. It still flows nicely with the...

With that level of work needed it'd have to be a "smoking" deal. Old Porsches aren't getting any cheaper to fix. I am actually a Porsche parts slinger in my day gig. I love the classic stuff and always keep my eyes open for a deal as well. That one needs some major love... but could be a...

Really curious to see what you do with the stereo cabinet. Your adventure in plywood cabinet building has gotten me debating if I'm ballsy enough to try to build some of my own! Ha. Although it means some new specific tools. Old hifi is another rabbit hole that I keep poking my toe in from...

I guess I always take it for granted that these guys are just down the street from me... well 5-10 mins... a little extra now because some idiot decided to close a bridge. HJE is a neat place... Certainly a fun stop on any stop through KC on vacation, etc.

I looked at doing that exact combination. I really wanted the 3 wide drawers for the way I keep my box laid out though. They are nice boxes. I'm pleased with my purchase for sure. Ask me again in 5-10 years and hopefully my answer will be the same! :thumbup:

Nice spread... :thumbup:

Actually I'm tempted to lower the Masterforce using shorter heavy duty casters... perhaps a plate with a set of 4 smaller casters on each end. At 45" tall it's a bit high for a work top. Also of note.. the Masterforce has the threaded inserts on the bottom "channels" to put a 3rd set of...

Masterforce 72"... ordered end of April.. arrived last Monday. The gunmetal/green is actually not a bad color combo. It's a beast. I'll have to do a proper drawer arrangement photo set once I get done really organizing and arranging everything. Fits nicely with the Vidmar I picked up to...

Loaded the 72" in the back of my Nissan hardbody... the tailgate "almost" closed. Poor kids at the Menards were like... huh? Will that fit!? Yup... They picked up the box in the middle with the forklift forks.. slid the end on and we used 4 guys to slide it the rest of the way in. Got...

That deck came out great... Very nice work. I must've missed somewhere did you mention what stain/finish you were using for all the wood? It's got a great color to it. BTW... nice exterior lights. Did you get them from https://shop.practicalprops.com/?? We have the same (similar at...

Touche' I suppose they have them centrally warehoused though. Got notification this morning mine is in. Debating if I want to have them deliver it (for a fee) or wrangle it myself.

Picked up this Stanley Vidmar unit off a guy who was in the medical industry... apparently they pulled this out of a surgery center a few years ago and it's been sitting in his garage since. Got it to use to organize all my hardware, etc. It's smaller than most of the tall/deep units so it...

Looks like Menard's has this pricing going again this week. I picked up the 72" a couple weeks ago and it was about a 3 week lead time to get it in. Assuming they might be being built to order.
