    Show me your shop bathrooms!

    This was my first every tile job, used the orange ditra for the waterproofing. Found a cheap cabinet, then got a granite top at Home Depot with sink for like 250. I’m proud of it. Wanted to see if I could do decent tile work in shop before I do the house. That’s an electric heater above the...

    Jackshaft garage door openers - do they work?

    I ordered 4 liftmaster 3800s, seller said 3800s are getting replaced by 8500s. I said ok. I'm love technology so was excited to see that the my Q was part of the 8500 motors. Here's a picture of the app, I have 2 12x9 and 2 12x10, they have no trouble lifting the doors, although I did get a bad...

    What your Dad taught you,

    My dad's father passed away when he was two, therefore, the mold for his life was warranted by people around him. He worked for a mechanic shop when he was 16-18 to help his mother as they were barely making it. I guess that is why he is a borderline hoarder, he hates to throw anything away. He...

    Metal ceiling installation

    Thanks guys for the tips. I did pancake a few of those washers. I started with the lap side the worked my way to the fat lip. The screws are in the lowest spot of the metal.

    Shrimp's Shop...It's not a dream.

    Well, I have stalled as long as I can...I can't decide on the ceiling for inside the shop. It's either drywall or the roofing metal (white) like you see in the pull-through area outside. They are about the same price...metal may be a bit more.What do you guys think? The reason I'm hesitant about...

    Seville Storage Gallery

    I have to agree mark. I'm gonna get just strictly cabinets and the smaller wall cabinet, think the hf 44" is hard to beat for tools alone. The workbench looks solid though.
