    RECALL - Another round of DeVilbiss compressors

    OK time to revive this zombie thread... I never ordered my recall kit and I'm wondering if someone has one they would be willing to sell me. The 800 numbers listed for ordering are non-operational... Thank you all in advance!

    Building new garage: Multi-use building in order to add value at resale time?

    Building new garage: Multi-use building in order to add value at resale time?

    Thanks for your reply. A preliminary read of the building code appears favorable given our lot size. Again, with some lifts where some cars can be doubled up, it won't be that enormous but the lot will allow it.
