OP, have you seen these? I know nothing about them but someone shared it with me as I could end up being in a similar situation. Don't know if they are reliable...

That is a really great write up and good to know the 24k works well in there. I will have 900sq ft and plan to use a 2 zone, 24k in the main garage with another 12k in the upstairs man cave. My only problem with doing it so inexpensively (like you did) is that my county requires a permitted...

Too bad you can't figure out what you had in the 4 previous garages. I am of no help but will be interested in the responses.

We have the same a**holes here. Why would anyone do that? Instead of the rain and weather eventually washing it away.

Very sorry to hear this. Thank you for documenting it for many to learn from it. So the AC unit that was making a strange noise wasn't the cause but was making the noise due to the electricity?

Watching with interest.

Make sure the primer bulb doesn't have an air leak. You would probably know right away if it did, but that is why my Echo didn't run. Also clean up that carb gasket leftover material and stick a new one in there if you didn't already replace the carb.

That is nice. You maybe could drill a hole in the end of each tube and be able to shake them out one at a time like a toothpick holder.

Just quoting for future reference. This is an amazing post. One question, I know there is a lot of contradictory information out there on this...why put the vapor barrier below the insulation as opposed to on top of the insulation? I thought I had settled on the latter.

Another vote for the JD Z7. I have a 60" with the 7iron deck from 2003. Got it from my brother for next to nothing. Change the oil and hydraulic fluid. Keep the fittings greased. My only problem was that the clutch went up. Got a replacement from Amazon. Can't remember the brand but it has been...

It is very likely. Here is a great video about torque wrenches. Skip to 13:10 to see why it might not be good. Assuming that yours has the spring in the handle.

I get it. My wife has a hard time with it also. Your idea is really not bad. It could be 5', 10, 2', 10', 5' or 4.5', 10', 3', 10', 4.5'. You have given me some thinking to do.

Not yet, but I will get two more quotes.

I would be concerned with mold, moss and moisture with a lid like that. We had a basement stairs just like that when I was growing up. It was always damp and uninviting. I would just put that metal cage over the drain.

Thoughts on this? Received a quote for the excavation work: Dig footers Pour footings Cut topsoil out of inside for slab Stockpile topsoil for final grade Cut new driveway (~ 1,000 sq ft) 1 load of RC6 for driveway base Backfill foundation once block is done. Under slab-Use material that I...
