Me and the little guy moved some plywood around and i drank some cold dos equis.

My brother has a tire shop and he has a cheap Italian made tire machine. I think its a ch brand. Hes been using for two years with absolutely no problems. It does have a arm and is rim clamp. Run flats are a pain in the *** and 22's and larger we turn around and pull from the backside.

Its on a separate sewer . My uncle helped build shop. He does custom steel buildings for a living and he says that alot of his customers are going the AAV route anymore. I still wanted some opinions though.

Thanks Jim. I bet that will work. Have you ever had to replace valve or do they last a long time.

I have a 200 amp disconnect that's mounted on the outside of my house. From there it goes to a 40 space panel inside the garage. I want to run wire in pvc from the outside panel to my new shop. Its about a 90' run from panel to panel. Problem is that the outside panel only has one slot. Question...

DC is right and when weathers nice in the spring and summer months u have to work inside cause of the damn mosquitos. I added the carport to my shop so on good days i can work in the shade, and not have to crank up the ac. Slim
