If you have an XMT 304 all you need to add is something like an S22A wire feeder and you have an excellent MIG.

Another vote for Community College Classes.

I like the idea of 30mpg, 300hp and 22k. Does it have AC?

I have worked with oilfield pipe a lot. Cutting and coping is the least of the problems in working with it. The smell as mentioned is terrible and a lot of the seams have split open. Welding it can also be tricky as some of it seems magnetized and the arc goes all over the place. Using it for a...

How wide is your shelving unit? If it is 8 feet or less could be as simple as 2 pieces of mdf, or plywood and some hinges.

Employees should be in uniforms prior to clocking in and should change into street clothes on their own time. Starting time is starting time not get ready to work time. All tools, except specialty tools, should be furnished by the employee. I don't know how many employees you have but lost...

I have put a lot of these in, I have found that predrilling the wood works best for me.

I have a 18x22 (outside dimensions),I am also on a city lot and no room to make larger. I don't use it as a garage, more as a shop. When I'm working on a vehicle there is ample room on both sides as long as there is only 1 vehicle in there. With yours being longer I would think it would be fine...

Great place you have there! May I ask how/what you used to paint the garage doors? They look great!

Sweet! A pair of those would look great in my shop.

Everything looks great! Now I know how I'm going to do my ceiling!

To me the logical place to build the garage would of been on the East side. Would of been hard to do the sunroom though. I doubt that any sort of permit was ever given for the add on structure and nothing seems to be to code. I think it would be harder to fix than start over. You're not too far...

Another Utah guy. Welcome! Doesn't seem to be too many of us here. You out in West Jordan? I think you'll get more responses about your garage if you post it under general discussion. I'd knock it down and start over, but that is just my opinion, others may vary.

I have built some similar to what sberry posted and also some similar to what sureshot posted. As to what to build them from it all depends on what you can get for material. If you can find some 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 sch. 40 pipe making a pair similar to what sureshot posted is pretty easy. You just...

How about a sketch of the frame you are wanting to make?
