    Advice on receptacle placement. (new construction)

    Consider placing an outlet outside (on the exterior) of your man door. I take projects outside to contain dust, and have to run an extension cord through the doorway...

    Finished my garage floor with ArmorPoxy ArmorUltra in WHITE

    Absolutely looks fantastic! Any noteworthy learning from applying? I'm getting ready to use the same product this weekend, and have already realized from filling my saw cuts that there is much to learn about handing epoxy...

    How to reuse bottles for Xtreme Set 100 Crack/Joint Filler!

    That's crazy! I was mixing 8 ounces and it was getting thick with about 2 ounces in the bottle still. It seemed if I gave the bottle three good shakes, as opposed to treating it like a can of spray paint, that the reaction took longer too...

    How to reuse bottles for Xtreme Set 100 Crack/Joint Filler!

    Thanks for posing this tip it worked great. In hindsight I wish I had purchased large mouth bottles though. I purchased bottles off Amazon without paying attention to the mouth size detail. The ones that I purchased had smaller opening so I had to use my pinky and some needle nose pliers to...

    Exterior Driveway to Epoxy Transition?

    Thanks for the reply Shea! So a product like an exterior paint? I have some left over Sherwin-Williams Duration exterior paint - I just never thought that it would be tough enough for concrete. I do agree it would be easy to maintain touch up if needed!

    Exterior Driveway to Epoxy Transition?

    I'm preparing to apply an 100% solids epoxy and 2-part top coat finish to my garage interior. I have about 2" of exposed concrete outside my garage doors that I understand should not be coated since epoxy is not rated for exterior UV exposure (its south facing too). I'd like to coat the exposed...

    Reznor garage heater sizing

    Good point D45 - I didn't think to factoring in the throw distance... My garage is an "L" shape that shares two walls with the house (picture a 2 car + a double deep single). The longest wall that's 42' is what the heater will be blowing parallel to. Sticking with a slightly larger unit may be...

    Reznor garage heater sizing

    Great looking setup JJ. I'm in a similar spot you were and trying to decide on a unit heater size. I was planning on a 75k Reznor unit for my 1,200sq garage with 12' ceilings, but after reading your thread feedback I'm considering stepping down a size. Now that you have your heater running...

    Craftsman 14" Pipe Wrench $13.94 (In store @ Sears YMMV)

    My local Alderwood Mall, WA Sears has the (Made in the USA) Craftsman 14" Pipe Wrench on sale for $13.94 each. For anyone in the Seattle/ Alderwood Mall area, Sears had three more of these in stock on the back wall behind tool chests...

    CTEK 7002 Battery Charger $82 @ Amazon

    Nice find, $82 bucks is about 15% off the $98 average selling price an Amazon! I've used the CTEK 7002 on vehicles overnight in a auto repair environment and it was excellent in reconditioning abused batteries. After 2 or 3 nights the cars with the 7002 would turn over easier. In for one to...

    $10.00 coupon for Yost Vises

    I would recommend against any of the Asian made Yost vices (any of their vices that have a crinkle paint finish). The machining and finish on them is very poor, even for the $100 buck price point. As an alternative, I would suggest a Craftsman Professional model. I understand they can be hard...
