Is it me, or is he also welding the gas tank?:wtf:

Did anyone go with VCT flooring in their garage on a floor with expansion joists cut in? I have two perpendicular wall to wall cuts that basically form a "+" in the center of my garage floor. I like the ease and look of a VCT floor, but I just can't picture how it would look with the open...

Well, I picked it up for $250. I figured at that price it's worth a try. It came with a regulator, filter, and 50 foot hose. It looks brand new, ran fine, sounded fairly quiet and smooth, and there were no leaks. If it lasts me a couple years, at least, I'll be happy. Then I'll move up to a...

Thanks for the replies. Sounds like it would be worth the money if I can get him down a bit. I don't think it will be overkill for me. I use a sandblaster quite frequently, or at least I did until my other compressor gave up, so what I really need is a high volume, high psi unit. It's on the...

No one has had any experience with this compressor?

Is the Husky Pro 6.5 hp, 60 gallon model #vt631402aj compressor any good for general garage tool - impact, sprayer, etc. I found a deal on one that is a year old for $300. I'm still finishing my garage so I don't have the extra cash to get a new 2 stage which is my ultimate goal, so I'm looking...

Keep watching! I picked up 18 Geneva 1950's steel kitchen cabinets for $300 locally. Very heavy guage, very sturdy. The construction and material put new modern, garage cabinets to shame. The lot included a lower and upper corner cabinet with a built in 3 tier steel lazy susan. They are in...

Thanks for the replies so far. The tank pressure is higher, meaning more reserve air, but it is still flowing at a lower CFM than the single stage, unless you pay twice the cost to get a comparable flowing two stage. As far as sound, that has more to do with oil lubed vs oilless, I believe, so...

The closest Tractor Supply is about 200 miles away, so that really isn't a good option unless it's several hundred dollars cheaper.

Which is a more important factor when shopping for a compressor that will see a lot of high volume air work such as sandblasting, CFM rating or 2 stage. IR has a 5 HP, 60 gal, single stage compressor which claims to deliver 18.1 CFM@90 PSI for $849. At the same time, a nice IR two stage, 80 gal...

It's also a good idea to "leapfrog" receptacle wiring. Instead of wiring all the receptacles in order, wire every other on a different circuit. It uses more cable, but this way, if you ever have an issue with that circuit, you won't have one whole side of your garage that doesn't have power...

You mean like this? http://www.americangaragemagazine.com/

No, I didn't take the oven but I did end up with the overhead fan system. Some of the cabinets have the original under cabinet light bars as well. I won't be using them though, they're the old two wire system with heavy guage steel casings. Overall the cabinets appear to be heavier and sturdier...

I've been looking at all the cabinet/storage options and trying to decide what to do. I found these cabinets, made an offer and struck a deal. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=018&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=280071563261&rd=1&rd=1 I'll be painting them red and...
