Thanks for reply......what is sjo cord? Also, is there a discernable sound or click when shut off bar switch is activated? What is the need for the twist lock receptacle......as opposed to standard 5252 receptacle? Any chance that when you are bored sometime you could post a photo of how you...

I've been only able to occassionally check in on here over the last several months........amazing work some of you have been doing. My shop build, which some of you might recall in the gallery section (don't even know how to reference it or remember how to post new pictures), is still going...

what shade of and brand of stain did you use?

pilot bushing removal........put wheel bearing grease in the hole in center of pilot bushing. Use a steel rod,etc. that has an o.d. just smaller than the i.d. of the pilot bushing and put it in the hole of pilot bushing. Use a hammer to whack the rod, and as it goes into pilot bushing, the...

Sorry to be late to the conversation, but I'll add in there a Mittler Bros. Machine and Tool air over hydraulic unit.....many nextel cup shops have them, and I've had one for over ten years..........all his fabrication tools are first rate and worth the higher price........ Keith

Scott, I ordered it direct from Eaton Compressors......they sell on ebay as well but can order at same prices direct from them. I also ordered one of their air hose reels to mount off my lift that I picked up not long ago so we'll see how well it holds up, they claim they use theirs all day...

My understanding with radiant floors is that you need more to worry about moisture transfer than heat/cold transfer. There are products out there that are designed for under slab insulating......check out northwest ohio foam products for some good insulating products........

I'm expecting delivery tomorrow of my new compressor from Eaton, they might have something in the size you are looking for....... Keith

Not to say it's okay to do it, but it has been done with proper triangulation used around the boxed area.......

Not currently but will take some of the inside framing soon.......

I haven't built one for my new shop yet, but in my shop I had in st. louis which was actually a pole barn frame.....I fabricated metal c-channel that fit over the uprights of the building, drilled through the upright and from this welded 1 3/4 inch round tubing much like that suggested from...
