    Newage cabinets ordered

    I've had my Bold series cabinets for about 7 years now and they have held up great for home garage/DIY use. I'm not sure how much they cost now but back when I bought them they were a great deal at under $1000 for the set. I just bought the corner cabinet and one additional cabinet separately...

    Wheel dollies on epoxy floor?

    I had a thought about using my floor jack while the wheels are on the dolly to use as a handle to pull the car. Could it work? I think I am going to keep the dollies. I had my brother help me rotate the car 180 degrees in the garage and it was pretty effortless with 2 of us. The only sketchy...

    Wheel dollies on epoxy floor?

    So I tried again today and had better luck than last night. Turns out I may have just been a idiot before and not actually had all 4 dollies fully lifting the wheels. It looked like they were maxed out but one may have been dragging. Today I pumped each one almost to max height and it was MUCH...

    Wheel dollies on epoxy floor?

    I purchased a set of the Daytona 1300lb wheel dollies from Harbor Freight (GoJak knock offs) for a good price thinking I can move my semi running project car around my 2 car garage to position it wherever and to make space for working on other cars. The videos all make it look pretty simple...

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! We were able to get the door off with some effort. Some lessons learned: - the interior sliding door does not clear the track even with the rollers fully lifted - the fixed panel really is held on just with those 6 screws pictured and needs to be released first before the...

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    So I took some more measurements and I think I may be able to get away with taking just the sliding door out. The couch is about 27.5" at its narrowest without the legs attached and I measured 28" with the sliding doors off. Going to give it a try and hope I can squeeze it through.

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    I think you are right. I just took another look downstairs and those screws are absent on the top track. i'm guessing they just drilled those up top for extra support maybe? I will try the steps you listed and when I get to the fixed door will keep fingers crossed that it is as simple as just...

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    Thanks for the tips. Not sure if you saw my post above yours but would removing that top piece (if possible) help with raising and swinging the sliding door off the track?

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    So I made an interesting discovery. We have the same door upstairs (a little wider but same sticker is present on it) and I was checking the top of the track and noticed it has screws that indicate the top section is removable. This seems to be missing from the door in the basement but I will go...

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    The right panel in the pic is the fixed one I will try to remove. I am assuming the sliding panel is relatively simple to remove. I see a couple screws on the top and bottom and guessing those are to raise/lower the rollers to lift off track. Although I don't see any screws that indicate the top...

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    Wow thanks for this info! Were going to give it try and remove both panels. I had read that on some doors the fixed panel is not designed to come off and was getting worried it might be a no-go but will give it a shot and also give them a call to see if we can get any more info.

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    I am hoping its simple as removing those screws. There is a plastic strip along the front edge that I removed earlier to see but there were no screws on it.

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    I looked around the glass and in and around the tracks for any indication of manufacturer but the only thing I found is this label in pic attached:

    Sliding Patio Door question:

    Has anyone installed or removed one of these style sliding patio doors? My wife bought some furniture for our newly finished basement and did not check the measurements of the door. The new sofa does not fit through and I am wondering if the fixed glass panel can be removed and reinstalled...

    I need to upgrade my punches and chisels.

    I bought the Dasco punch and chisel set recently and was very disappointed by the quality. My 10 year old harbor freight green set is vastly superior which was surprising. I ended up keeping the Dascos since it was going to be a hassle to return them. At least the blue finish looks nice in my...
