I put an automatic drain valve on mine when I bought it 8 years ago. I wired it to the motor to blow for 10 seconds.

I keep my 211 in the garage, heat is at 35 degrees minimum year round. Before the heat, my tools would get rust.

4 original large advents that I refoamed mounted 4 feet up on corner shelves powered by a 1980 Sansui 9900z

I need full hang. I hate to say it but my stronger days are behind me. Lower back issues but yes, pull ups and chins. If I'm below 200 that probably means I'm dead.

Wow, that is fantastic! I may just do this. I love dips. I just don't know about the strength of the studs in my wobbly attached garage.

What I am considering is running full length 2x4s with clips staggered and bolting through them the bar mount.

Hey everyone, I'm looking to help myself out a bit as I don't have much time just yet for the gym. There isn't any secure place in the house for me to mount a chin up contraption so I am looking to hang it from the 7' rafters in the garage. My plan for the bar is to either get something premade...

NATO cans? Omg we're fucked

I've watched and known of people air busting down struts and axle nuts and have nothing but problems. Can you get away with it? Maybe but torque specs are stated for this very reason.

Not sure that 4500 would cover much for me other than aiding what needs to be done. Expand? Lift roof height? I desperately want a lift but 8 foot rafters screw that up. Most of the things needed to improve without renovation would just be paint and flooring. I've got heat and ac and 220 self...

I bought my house ten years ago with an attached 2 car garage. If memory serves it is 20 wide and 24 deep with a 16 foot wide door. 2 feet of brick work for the den's fireplace makes for very small space. One tool box at the back of the garage, a nice large one on the side with a bench to boot...

Well, my old Sunpro trigger activated, no advance light is just too dim. I have to use it in very dark conditions in order to get a read. I think she's ready for the bin- or if someone wants it. At any rate, I would like a trigger activated, advance style gun with bright light- more features...

When I first got my compressor I wired in my timed drain. Thing is, it would scare the living **** out of me when I was under a car - so that had to end. What I did was wired it to the electric motor power and set it to max blast (ten sec). Works great. If I'm not using it, I blast it out once...

Wow. F that. I almost bought one of these with that same concern in mind! Thanks guys.

I have a 5hp 60 gal Central Pneumatic air compressor that I got from HF 6 years ago. It's been great (loud as all get out) for many projects and repairs. Over the years I've done some great reliability mods on it like a heavy duty pressure switch, a mag box and an automatic drain but one thing...
